Beskrivning

Climb up the Galata Tower, an old Genoese watchtower, and admire the views of Istanbul and Golden Horn with a Private Guide. Explore the Karaköy district on the European Side .
Join a 5-Star Local Guide on a walking tour of the Karaköy district and visit its most prominent landmark, the Galata Tower. Learn about the Turkish Conquest of Constantinople and how Istanbul has changed science at the end of the Middle Ages. Explore the history of the Byzantine Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Republic of Turkey!

Choose our exclusive 3-hour tour to see the highlights of Istanbul's European Side and visit the famous Galata Tower. Your Private Guide will meet you near the famous Galata Bridge spanning the Golden Horn, and take you on a short walking tour of the characteristic Karaköy and Beyoğlu districts. Here, you will discover the traces of the medieval citadel of Galata, which was a colony of the Republic of Genoa between 1273 and 1453. As you explore these narrow alleys, the guide will tell you about Galata’s former Jewish quarter that was seized and destroyed by the Catholic crusaders and other interesting stories from the Middle Ages.

The main attraction of this tour will be a visit to Galata Tower, which was a watchtower at the highest point of the lost Walls of Galata. The nine-story tower (62.59 m) is now an exhibition space and an open-air observation deck, offering marvelous panoramic views over the Golden Horn, Bosphorus and most of Istanbul’s major landmarks, including Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. Many consider this to be the best view in town. Your Private Guide will also show you the lively neighborhood with its beautiful tenement houses and shops where you can buy popular souvenirs, vintage clothes, traditional musical instruments and more. You will see the imposing Sent Antuan Kilisesi, pass the famous street passage Çiçek Pasajı and end the tour in Taksim Square.

Choose the 4,5-hour tour option to book private transfers with a 3-hour private tour of the Galata Tower and neighborhood. This option includes a 1,5-hour round-trip transfer with pickup and drop-off at your accommodation in Istanbul.
