Honestly one of our favourite trips as a couple so far. History, food, and that dome all packed into a short romantic break. The Hamam and the bazaar gave us a nice mix of relaxation and energy. Three nights felt complete rather than rushed.
Istanbul in October was pleasantly warm without being uncomfortable. Evenings by the water ended up being the best part of nearly every day.
The Grand Bazaar swallowed us whole, my wife and I lost a happy hour just following our noses through the lanes.
Hagia Sophia's dome is something photos simply cannot capture, we just stood there looking up.
Grand Bazaar left us wide-eyed, so many colours and smells packed into those narrow lanes. Could have spent an entire day just wandering there with my wife.
Turkish Hamam experience was wonderfully relaxing, my husband was skeptical going in but loved it by the end. Great way to unwind after a day of sightseeing.
