3 June 2026 | Bosphorus Line & First Steps in Istanbul

Around 07:00 in the morning, we begin our journey with the Alanya – Gazipaşa transfer.

With the 10:20 Turkish Airlines flight, we arrive in Istanbul, meet our vehicle at the airport and head to our hotel.

We dedicate our first day to some of Istanbul’s most beautiful waterfront districts.

Among the historic wooden mansions of Arnavutköy, peaceful seaside walking paths and the atmosphere of the Bosphorus, we slowly begin to feel the spirit of Istanbul. Afterwards, we continue to Ortaköy.

With the Ortaköy Mosque, lively waterfront atmosphere, famous baked potatoes, coffee aromas and Bosphorus views, Istanbul truly begins to reveal itself.

Throughout the day, we enjoy photo stops, short walks and free time while blending into the rhythm of the city.

Thanks to the central location of our hotel, guests who wish can freely explore Istiklal Street, Taksim, Galata and Karaköy in the evening.

4 June 2026 | Ferries, Neighborhoods & The Real Istanbul

After breakfast, today we begin to experience Istanbul like true locals.

Using the public ferry across the Bosphorus, we head towards Üsküdar. During the ferry ride, we will enjoy different perspectives of the city from the water.

Our first stop is Kuzguncuk.

With its colorful houses, historic streets, small cafés and strong neighborhood culture, Kuzguncuk is one of the rare districts that still preserves the old soul of Istanbul.

We walk through its peaceful streets, take photo breaks and enjoy the atmosphere of the neighborhood.

Afterwards, we continue by bus to the Üsküdar waterfront.

With views of the Maiden’s Tower, we take a short walk along the seaside promenade.

Later, we take the ferry once again and cross over to Karaköy.

Among Karaköy’s lively streets, historic buildings, cafés and modern city atmosphere, we explore another face of Istanbul before returning to our hotel.

Today, with ferries, metro lines, trams and walks through the streets, we truly become part of Istanbul’s daily life.

Overnight stay at the same hotel.

After breakfast, before leaving Istanbul, our final stop is Balat.

One of the most characteristic districts of old Istanbul, Balat offers a completely different atmosphere with its colorful bay-window houses, narrow cobblestone streets, historical buildings and multicultural heritage.

During our walk here, we experience the old neighborhood culture, daily life and the spirit Istanbul has carried from past to present.

After photo breaks and free time, we transfer to the airport in the afternoon.

With the 18:15 Turkish Airlines flight, we return to Alanya via Gazipaşa.
