Enjoy a Bosphorus historical sightseeing cruise and take in splendid sights of the Golden Horn from the Pierre Loti Hill.

Ride past the Golden Horn and admire the atmospheric historical wooden houses, churches, synagogues, mosques and the remains of the Roman Wall. Ascend the Pierre Loti Hill by bus. The perfect view of the Golden Horn makes for wonderful photo ops. Then descend from Pierre Loti Hill by cable car.

After the Pierre Loti visit, climb aboard your luxury coach and head to Eyup Sultan Mosque by Golden Horn, a natural horn-shaped bay that divides the European side of Istanbul into two. Pay tribute to the Abu Eyup Alansari Tomb (Abu Ayyub al-Ansari was the standard bearer and companion of Muhammad, an important site for Muslims).

Wrap up your day with a leisurely cruise on the Bosphorus strait and see iconic attractions like the Golden horn, Topkapi palace, Dolma Bahçe palace, The Hagia Sophia Mosque, Maiden’s tower, Galata tower, Blue mosque, Ortakoy mosque, and the two continents Europe and Asia with the two Bridges connecting them.
