Overview

Explore the heart of Istanbul at your own pace with a narrated audio walk on your phone. Three parts, in any order, on any day: the Sultanahmet peninsula (Blue Mosque, the Hippodrome and Hagia Sophia square), the Grand Bazaar and its lanes, and Galata up to the tower.

More than 30 narrated stops come with maps and photos, so you always know where you are and what you are looking at. Download once and listen offline. Narration in English, German, Russian, Polish and Turkish; switch language at any time. Access stays open for 14 days after your travel date, so you can split the walk over several days.
