Day Four
The Bosphorus
Board the
Uzun Boğaz Turu
(Long Bosphorus Tour) to spend a full day exploring
this culturally and architecturally rich waterway. After admiring the historic yalıs
(waterside timber mansions) along its shores, alight from the ferry at Sarıyer and
make your way back to town by bus, visiting museums and monuments along the way.
Lunch
MüzedeChanga - scenic terrace and Modern
Turkish cuisine.
Beyoğlu
If you decided to take a 90-minute cruise on a Bosphorus excursion boat rather
than the full-day trip, you can devote the afternoon to investigating Beyoğlu's ex-
citing contemporary-art scene. Don't miss the
İstanbul Modern
museum and the
ARTER
and
SALT
cultural centres.
Dinner
Stylish Lokanta Maya showcases Modern Ae-
gean cooking.
Beyoğlu
Wander the streets surrounding the
Galata Tower
, admiring the building stock,
browsing in boutiques and perhaps enjoying an aperitif. Then move on to Lokanta
Maya, a stylish showcase of Modern Aegean cooking in Karaköy, followed by a
sweet finale at İstanbul's most famous baklava shop,
Karaköy Güllüoğlu
.
