About this activity

This private Istanbul Asian side tour crosses the Bosphorus by car to show you Beylerbeyi, Kuzguncuk, Üsküdar, Çamlıca Hill and lively Kadıköy.

Private Istanbul Asian Side Tour

Most visitors only glimpse Asia from a ferry deck. On this chauffeured excursion a vehicle and driver are reserved for your party so you can explore the Anatolian shore of Istanbul in comfort. Sessions start between 09:00 and 11:00 and the day unfolds at a pace that suits you.

Crossing Between Two Continents

The adventure begins with a drive over one of the great Bosphorus bridges. Halfway across you leave Europe behind and the green hills of the Asian side open up ahead.

A Summer Palace on the Shore

Beylerbeyi Palace was built as a seasonal retreat for the sultans and still sits right on the water. You can admire its exterior and gardens or buy a ticket to see the lavish rooms inside.

Wooden Houses and Village Calm

Kuzguncuk feels like a small town tucked into the metropolis. Timber homes in pastel colours line quiet streets where a mosque a church and a synagogue stand within a few steps of each other.

Sunlit Views Across to the Old City

Along the Üsküdar waterfront the Maiden's Tower rises from its tiny islet with the domes of the historic peninsula on the opposite bank.

The Highest Viewpoint in the City

Çamlıca Hill is crowned by the Grand Çamlıca Mosque and offers the widest panorama in Istanbul. On a clear day both bridges and the Sea of Marmara stretch out below.

Markets and Seaside Promenades in Kadıköy

The route closes in Kadıköy where the produce market buzzes with fishmongers spice sellers and bakeries. A short walk leads to the Moda seafront before your driver takes you back across the strait.
