We had an OUTSTANDING boat tour of the Bosphorus. The service, the tour guide, the information, everything was excellent! The boat was smaller and nicer than the other boats nearby.

Istanbul, where East meets West, offers tourists a fascinating blend of history, culture, and relaxation. Let yourself be enchanted by its many charms.

Istanbul's most iconic mosques

The two most important mosques to visit while in Istanbul are the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia. The Blue Mosque, featuring six minarets and over 20,000 tiles, stands as a majestic example of Islamic architecture. The Hagia Sophia has served as a basilica, mosque, and museum since it was originally constructed in 537 AD.

Other must-sees in Istanbul

The Galata Tower (the highest section of the Lost Walls of Galata) offers unparalleled panoramic views of the city. The Topkapi Palace, the former residence of the Ottoman sultans, and the Basilica Cistern, with its magical underground atmosphere, are two other incredible sites to visit during your travels.

The Best Activities in Istanbul

Between visiting monuments, you can partake in other unique activities in Istanbul. Enjoy a traditional Turkish bath for local relaxation, a traditional dance show, or a Bosphorus cruise. You can do it all with Civitatis!
