Basicilia Cistern

'From Russia With Love' and 'Inferno'- do any of these ring a bell? The Basicilia Cistern has always been a part of popular culture that was built during the reign of Justinian I. This structure is a paragon of 6th-century Byzantine architecture. As you enter this colossal marvel, a dim golden hue that glistens off the surface of the water will welcome you. The Medusa column bases, located in the northwest portion of the Cistern are an absolutely mesmerizing sight. Hear about the mysterious origin of the two stone heads oriented sideways from your guide.

Bosphorus Cruise

Onboard, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee, and soak in the phenomenal views of the city. Spot the impressive Hagià Sophia domes, the Galata Tower that soars over the entire city, and the legendary Bosphorus Bridge, which is known to connect Europe and Asia.
