This tour requires a taxi or a car. There’s a long road along the Golden Horn which is a small extention of the strait Bosphorus. The car takes you along the Golden Horn and on the way, you see the Iron Bulgarian Church, the Greek Patriarchate, the Greek High School for boys, the Jewish Hospital and the Eyup Sultan Mosque complex. The car takes you along the old city-walls from the 5th C and the tour finishes at a cozy cafe called “Pierre Loti”. Loti is a French who fell in love with a Turkish girl, therefore with Istanbul and spent most of his time at that café. The Café is overlooking the Golden Horn and you may see the relections of the sun on the water. It’s a great spot.
