Our City Breaks Holidays
Join us on one of our unforgettable city breaks from Edinburgh as we immerse ourselves in the history and culture of Istanbul. Straddling the continents of Asia and Europe, Istanbul has been a pivotal crossroads for civilisations, serving as the heart of the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman Empires. Though empires have risen and fallen, their legacy lives on in the city’s vibrant culture, architecture, and traditions. On this holiday, we’ll explore both the Asian and European sides of Istanbul with expert local guides, uncovering ancient wonders and hidden gems. You’ll have plenty of free time to visit iconic landmarks, lose yourself in the Grand Bazaar’s labyrinth of spices and textiles, or simply unwind with a cup of rich Turkish tea while soaking in the city’s enchanting atmosphere. All of our Istanbul holidays include flights, accommodation, transfers, and guided tours—so you can experience the best of this magnificent city with ease.
