✅ What's Included
About Sultanahmet: The Historic Heart of Istanbul
Sultanahmet stands on the first hill of Istanbul’s Historic Peninsula and contains monuments representing the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman periods. The district developed around the ancient Hippodrome of Constantinople, an important ceremonial and public space that later became known as Atmeydanı during the Ottoman era and is now called Sultanahmet Square.
Sultanahmet forms part of the Historic Areas of Istanbul, inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1985. Major landmarks include the sixth-century Hagia Sophia, Topkapı Palace, the Basilica Cistern and the Sultan Ahmed Mosque, constructed between 1609 and 1617 and widely known as the Blue Mosque because of its İznik tiles. A private transfer from Galataport to Sultanahmet provides convenient Old City transportation without carrying cruise luggage between trams, steep streets and crowded pedestrian areas.
