Fri, 21st November 2008 - Wed, 31st December 2008
This half day, afternoon tour will take you to the Dolmabahce Palace* which was the second largest residence after the Ottomans left Topkapi Palace. It is now a museum, with 365 rooms and 22 saloons, famous for its great collection of antiquity, furniture, paintings, and incredible 4.5 ton chandelier.
After you finish touring this very impressive "house," you will have the once in a lifetime experience of stepping between two continents, from Europe to Asia, as we make the two minute drive over the Bosphorus Bridge. Its the only place in the world where when you spread your arms wide open and feel like you’re grabbing Europe with one arm, and Asia with the other.
Drive to Yeditepe, one of the city summits which is presenting the best and the widest panoramic view of Istanbul and Bosphorus. A unique spot to take photos.
Note: Domabahce Palace is clsoed on Mondays and Thursdays. It is replaced by a visit to the Kariye (Chora) Museum.
