Bosphorus cruise at sunset with Istanbul's skyline on both sides was the single best evening of our whole honeymoon. Blue Mosque in the afternoon light lived up to every photo we had seen online. Spice Bazaar was overwhelming in the best way, we ended up buying way more tea and spices than we planned. Dolmabahce Palace tour felt a bit rushed but still impressive given the scale of the place.
History lovers will be in heaven here. The Blue Mosque, Dolmabahce Palace, and just wandering the old streets gave us so much to talk about over dinner each night. Bosphorus cruise was romantic though the boat was more crowded than we expected for what was billed as an intimate experience. Food throughout was excellent and reasonably priced.
Three nights finally let us breathe. The Blue Mosque in the soft afternoon light, the Spice Bazaar's wall of scent, and a Dolmabahce Palace tour that revealed Ottoman opulence we simply had not expected.
Loved the Spice Bazaar and the mosque, but our boutique hotel's breakfast was a sad, cold affair every single morning.
Dolmabahce Palace floored the pair of us, neither expected that scale of Ottoman grandeur.
