Istanbul Hop On Hop Off Bus & Boat Sightseeing Tour

About this tour

See Istanbul on your own schedule with a hop on hop off bus pass that stops near the city's major landmarks, museums, and waterfront districts. Board and reboard as often as you like within your pass window, which starts on your first ride, and use the multilingual audio guide for commentary on the sights as you go. From the open upper deck you get wide views of historic monuments, the Bosphorus, and the neighborhoods in between, with routes and stops fixed so you always know where the bus goes.

Good to Know Before You Ride

Buses generally run from morning until late afternoon, with the first departure around 09:00 and the last around 18:00. Exact times shift by operator and season, so confirm the schedule for the option you book.

Because these are hop on hop off loops rather than a fixed guided tour, there is no set meeting time. Board at any marked stop along the route, ride as far as you want, and step off to explore whenever a stop lines up with something you want to see. Traffic across Istanbul can affect how long each leg takes, so allow some flexibility if you are trying to fit in several sights in one day.
