About Istanbul

Istanbul is a city of contrasts – Europe and Asia; East and West; Modern and traditional. With its magnificent mosques competing with up-market modern hotels to dominate the skyline, Istanbul won’t fail to fascinate. The sites and sounds of the history have graced the history books for centuries – marvel at the grandeur of the Aya Sofya and the Blue Mosque. See how the Ottoman sultans lived at Topkapi Palace with it’s museum and Harem. Visit the nearby Archaeological museum with its Byzantine and Greek artifacts.
Apart from the sites, Istanbul itself is a wonder to behold. Divided by the turquoise waters of the Bosphorous, what better way to discover the city than a cruise past the waterfront villages, forested slopes and ancient fortresses.
Istanbul is also famous for its food which is almost exclusively fabulous – whether you are dining at a back street kebab house, a fancy fish restaurant or one of the top class international hotels.

And of course Istanbul is a shopper’s paradise. A visit to the Grand Bazaar is a must where you can find almost anything you want. But don’t miss out on the modern metropolis of shopping centres full of the designer and boutique shops which make Istanbul such a great destination for a break.
