This wheelchair-friendly tour allows guests to explore Istanbul in ease and comfort. Once settled into your comfortable seat, with your camera at hand, you'll be ready to set off on a thrilling discovery. Your scenic drive takes you through the modern area of Istanbul past Dolmabahce Palace where Ottoman sultans once ruled and Taksim Square, home to restaurants and shops. Your journey continues past the Old City Sea Walls, originally erected between the 4th and 5th centuries; the Golden Horn estuary; and the Bulgarian Orthodox Church, whose exterior is clad in cast-iron plates. Two can't-miss landmarks include the Blue Mosque, notable for its multitude of domes, semi-domes and graceful minarets; and Church of the Holy Wisdom, also known as Hagia Sofia. As you return to port, you'll stop and shop at the famed Spice Bazaar.
