    Asian side of Istanbul is a must see

    Bobbi_K, Sep 2025
    This was an exceptional tour with a very very knowledgeable guide who has grown up on both sides of Istanbul. This history is amazing and really helps you get a true perspective of the culture and where it is today. The experience was customized to our requests. Pick up a Nidya Hotel right outside the terminal was great. Our guide met us at the hotel and we headed to the boat terminal for a ride across the Bospherus. We toured the market and shops and then headed to a beautiful Mosque built in 2019. Great sightseeing, lunch and more. The Asian side is not crowded like Old Town and much cooler, too.
