“This tour was a deeply enriching journey into Istanbul’s Byzantine heritage. From the moment Aliya met me at my hotel, I felt like I was in capable hands. The Hagia Sophia left me speechless with its majestic domes and intricate mosaics, and the Little Hagia Sophia was a peaceful retreat filled with charm. Walking along the Walls of Constantinople was both humbling and awe-inspiring, offering a glimpse into the city’s ancient defenses. The Hippodrome brought the excitement of chariot races to life, and the Place of the Porphrogenitus was a unique highlight that showcased lesser-known Byzantine history. Pammakaristos Church was the perfect finale, with its stunning mosaics that felt like stepping into an art gallery from another era. Aliya’s deep knowledge and passion for history made each stop unforgettable. ForeverVacation’s seamless planning allowed me to focus entirely on the experience without worrying about logistics. This tour is ideal for solo travelers looking to dive into Istanbul’s Byzantine past with depth and detail!”
