Istanbul old city in one private day: morning from 125 euros or the full ridge from 230, with the gallery and Topkapi. A custom list uses the planner.
Istanbul old city on Colina Rojo Travel is the historic peninsula, not the Asian shore. A private morning is 08:00 to 13:00 from 125 euros, meet in Sultanahmet, no hotel van, with the Hagia Sophia gallery included. The full private day is 09:00 to 17:00 from 230 euros before VAT: hotel pickup, lunch, the gallery, and Topkapı with the Harem. A shared Spanish morning on the same hill is from 60 euros. Tuesday replaces Topkapı with the cistern. A list that fits none of those pages is the planner. One cart. TÜRSAB 16602.

Istanbul old city on Colina Rojo Travel means the historic peninsula, not the Asian shore and not Beyoğlu. A private morning is 08:00 to 13:00 from 125 euros, meet in Sultanahmet, no hotel van, with the Hagia Sophia gallery in the price. The full private ridge is 09:00 to 17:00 from 230 euros before VAT: hotel pickup, lunch, the gallery, and Topkapı with the Harem. A shared Spanish morning on the same hill is from 60 euros. A list that is none of those is the planner. One cart. TÜRSAB 16602.
The private clocks side by side are on Istanbul city tour. The same full day on our partner brand is the Hagia Sophia Travel standard full day. Pay one brand.
An istanbul old city day stays on Sultanahmet hill
The useful walk is short if you keep it on one hill. Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and the Hippodrome sit together. Topkapı is at the point of the peninsula, a longer interior. The Basilica Cistern is under the square. The Grand Bazaar and the Spice Bazaar are downhill toward Eminönü. Beyoğlu, Karaköy, and the Asian palaces are a different day. The 90 euro shore program, with Beylerbeyi and Çamlıca, is not this hill.
Pick the clock before you pick a seventh name. A morning holds the square. A full day holds the square and the palace. It does not hold the palace, a bazaar crawl, and a second neighbourhood.

The istanbul old city page most first visits should open is standard, if the whole day is free. Open the morning page if the flight owns the afternoon.
Morning on the square
The private morning meets in Sultanahmet. There is no Mercedes Vito. The Hagia Sophia visitor gallery ticket is included. The Blue Mosque is free when it is open to visitors. Shoes come off. A prayer can pause the visit. Plan about 35 to 45 minutes there, not a quick photo. The Hippodrome is the open ground between the two buildings. You are done around 13:00. The istanbul old city morning stops at the square. It does not continue to the palace.
Minimum two adults, maximum six, on the ready-made private pages. Children 0 to 5 go free. Ages 6 to 11 are half. Prices are before VAT. The guide is described as English-speaking. Another language is a request in the notes. Free cancellation is up to 24 hours before pickup.
The full private ridge
Standard adds the hotel pickup and drop-off, lunch, and Topkapı with the Harem. The istanbul old city full day is this page, 09:00 to 17:00. The pickup window is about 08:30 to 09:15. The email states the door time. The palace is the long interior, about 165 minutes if you take the Harem. Put it while the group is fresh. Do not leave it for a tired last hour and then add the Grand Bazaar.
The afternoon page is the palace block alone, 13:00 to 17:00 from 165 euros, again with no hotel van. Use it when the morning is already gone.
Deluxe is the ridge plus one finale, from 290 euros, toward 18:30, on the deluxe full day. The finale is a group Bosphorus cruise of about two hours, or Balat. One of them. Balat is not on the historic peninsula. If Balat is the point, it is not an old-city morning with a palace squeezed in.
Spanish, and the list that does not fit
A shared Spanish morning on this hill is 08:30 to 13:00 from 60 euros, maximum 15, no lunch. The guide is Spanish-speaking. The Hagia Sophia interior is optional at 25 euros per person, paid on site. Topkapı is not on that voucher. The shared full day is 08:30 to 17:00 from 100 euros, with hotel pickup, the Hippodrome, the Blue Mosque, the Spice Bazaar, lunch, and a Bosphorus cruise. Lunch is fish, köfte, meze, and salads. Drinks are extra. It is still not a private van for one family, and it still does not include Topkapı or the Grand Bazaar.
A private day in Spanish, or a hill plus a neighbourhood the voucher skips, is the planner. The guide fee is 150 euros per booking, for one traveler or five. Stops are 10 euros per traveler. The gallery is 35 euros per person, Topkapı with the Harem is 50, the cistern is 50, lunch is 20, and a central-hotel Vito is 45 euros for the booking. You see the total before you pay. English, Spanish, or Russian is selected there. How those lines go together is on how to plan a private Istanbul tour.
Tuesday, Sunday, and the car
Tuesday closes Topkapı. On the afternoon and full-day private tours the Basilica Cistern replaces it at no extra fee. The morning page never included the palace, so Tuesday barely changes it. Sunday closes the Grand Bazaar. The stop becomes the Spice Bazaar or Arasta. Confirm the week you fly on the Ministry of Culture museums portal.
A 14:00 landing misses an 08:00 meet. Istanbul Airport to Sultanahmet is 48 km, 45 to 60 minutes, 45 euros for the vehicle, up to 6 passengers and 6 bags, Gate 9, point CEO 34. Sabiha Gökçen is 65 km, 75 to 95 minutes, 50 euros, pillar 10. Book Istanbul Airport to Sultanahmet the night before, and the return on Sultanahmet to Istanbul Airport. Be at IST about three hours before an international departure, and at SAW four hours or more. The peninsula voucher is not the airport car.
Five steps, then pay
First, stay on the peninsula. An istanbul old city list that starts in Taksim is already the wrong page.
Second, match the hours. Morning, afternoon, or the full ridge.
Third, if you need Spanish on a shared tour, use the 60 or 100 euro page. If you need Spanish and a private van, use the planner.
Fourth, check Tuesday before you promise Topkapı, and Sunday before you promise the Grand Bazaar.
Fifth, finish one cart. Keep the airport car separate.
Common questions
What is the istanbul old city tour?
The private full day from 230 euros: Hagia Sophia gallery, Blue Mosque, Topkapı with the Harem, lunch, and hotel pickup, 09:00 to 17:00. A shorter morning is 125 euros.
Does it include the Grand Bazaar?
Not as a programmed long stop on the standard page. Sunday the covered bazaar is closed anyway. The Spice Bazaar is the downhill market that still fits a note, not a second day.
Is the 90 euro boat day the old city?
No. That day is the Bosphorus, Beylerbeyi, Çamlıca, and Pierre Loti.
Can we do Topkapı on a morning-only ticket?
No. The morning page is the square and the gallery. The palace is the afternoon page or the full day.
Where is a private day in Spanish?
On the planner, with Spanish selected. The 60 and 100 euro pages are shared.
What if we want Balat as well?
That is deluxe, as the one finale, or the planner if you also want stops the finale does not allow. It is not inside the 125 euro morning.
Open the morning or the standard page linked above if the hill is the day. If the list is yours, finish the planner, with the arrival and the return already saved.
