About this tour
You board in Sultanahmet and follow a loop through Eminönü, Karaköy, Galataport, Dolmabahçe Palace, the Naval Museum, Beylerbeyi Palace, Beşiktaş market, Taksim, Şişhane and the Spice Bazaar. Buses run all day, so you can get off wherever you like, look around and hop on the next one. Staying on for the whole loop takes about 2.5 hours, with audio commentary in 8 languages.
Good to know
No hotel pick-up. The bus leaves from Sultanahmet Square, by the main road between the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia.
