Itinerary

Day 1

Bucharest – Istanbul 🚌 We meet at 20:00 in the car park in Piața Victoriei, where the coach awaits us with the accompanying guide. We depart for Istanbul, with a stop of approximately 30 minutes at the Duty Free shop at the border between Bulgaria and Turkey, on the outbound journey only. We travel overnight by coach.

Day 2

Arrival in Istanbul. Optional excursion: the historic city and Bosphorus cruise 🕌⛴️ We arrive in the morning in Istanbul, at the Marmaray Yenikapi 4* hotel or similar. We check in, if the hotel has the rooms ready, or leave the luggage at reception and set off to discover the city. The optional excursion begins with a cruise on the Bosphorus, with Europe on one shore and Asia on the other. We then return to the old city, to Sultanahmet Square, to the Hagia Sophia mosque. Those who wish may also visit the Cisterns and Topkapi Palace, the residence of the Ottoman sultans. Estimated price: 30 €/person. Includes local transport, local guide, Romanian guide and Bosphorus cruise. Minimum 15 participants. Entry fees to attractions are not included. Those not participating have a free day.

Day 3

Optional excursion: Istanbul, on the Asian side 🌉 Breakfast. We begin the day with a visit to the Emelda leather factory, where a fashion show with their own products awaits us: leather and fur garments. For purchases made there, Emelda offers a 2-year guarantee. Next we visit a Turkish sweets factory, where you can taste and buy Turkish delight, baklava and many other types of sweets. Then we cross the Bosphorus to the Asian side. We climb Çamlıca Hill, to Çamlıca Mosque and Çamlıca Tower, from where you can see the entire city, on both continents. We have lunch on the Asian continent, at a restaurant with Turkish food. Estimated price: 60 €/person. Includes transport by coach or minibus, local guide, Romanian guide and Turkish lunch. Minimum 15 participants. Entry to Çamlıca Tower is not included (optional).

Day 4

Optional excursion to Büyükada Island 🏝️ Breakfast. We set off to visit Büyükada Island, the largest of the Princes' Islands. We travel by the Marmaray metro, under the Bosphorus, to reach Asia, to Bostancı port, from where we board a ferry for a cruise on the Sea of Marmara. On Büyükada you have the impression that time flows more slowly. Only electric vehicles circulate here, and the streets are lined with old wooden houses and villas with gardens, amongst pine trees. We tour the island with electric cars. Those who wish can walk up to the Monastery of Saint George (Aya Yorgi), situated on the highest hill of the island. The ascent is moderate, but can be tiring for those not used to walking uphill. The others have free time on the promenade, amongst cafés and shops. We have lunch on the island, with fish or chicken dishes, after which we return to the hotel or remain at leisure for shopping in the old centre of Istanbul or at the Grand Bazaar. Estimated price: 60 €/person. Includes travel by Marmaray metro and ferry, return, island tour by electric cars, lunch and Romanian guide. Minimum 15 participants. On stormy days, when ferries to Büyükada do not operate, we do instead the optional excursion Fanar, İstiklal Boulevard and Galata Tower (40 €/person). 1st of June evening: cruise with dinner and show on the Bosphorus 🌙 In the evening we cruise by boat on the Bosphorus and admire the illuminated bridges, with a dinner with drinks (limited alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and an artistic programme with traditional Turkish and Romanian dances. Estimated price: 60 €/person. Includes coach transport from the hotel and back, cruise, dinner with drinks and show. Organised regardless of the number of participants and includes transfer from hotel to port and from port to hotel.
