Private Historical Golden Horn Tour

 

Our tour of inlet in the peninsula which is known as the golden horn of Istanbul and had an important role in the sea trade throughout the history is prepared especially for you with the difference of our service, so that our guests can experience this historical texture.

After the breakfast at the hotel, we get on to our vehicles waiting to go to Pierre Loti hill in the historical Balat area, which is the first stop of our tour. We sip our morning teas in the spectacular scenery of the Golden Horn on Pierre Loti hill and then, we pass to our vehicles via telpher. We perform our trip to Eyüp, which is the first settlement place outside the city walls after the conquest of Istanbul, and Eyüp Sultan Mosque.

Because Eyüp Sultan El Ensari's tomb is also located in Eyüp Sultan Mosque, we give free time for our guests who would like to perform salaat. After this visit, we go to Rahmi Koç Museum located on the other side of the Golden Horn and perform a special tour in the museum established inside the historical inlet texture. You will have the chance to see many different sections in the museum, including the marine department, the aviation department and the antique car section.

After completing our museum tour, we go to Galata Tower, which is one of the oldest towers of the world and was built as a 70 meters high lantern tower, with our guide by our vehicle. We take photographs of this unique view where Istanbul is almost under your feet during the free time and complete our tour in the highest tower of Istanbul.
