Itinerary in detail
Every Laka trip is tailored to your personal preferences and interests.
Below you’ll find a sample itinerary to inspire your own custom-designed journey.
This is a day for happy walkers since it has long walks but if you can make it, at the end, you will get a very good feel of the city.
There are no set walking routes or stops for the day.
We will be walking through different local market places, will be stopping many times to taste local food, will be sharing local life of our city with you.
The more crowded Istanbul gets, the more bother it is to visit Galata Tower.
This is one of the rare places in Istanbul where our magic cards ( professional tour guiding licenses ) do not give us much of a privilege since the Tower has only one way in&out, with no separate entrances for guided tours or having no pre-booking systems to bypass the lines.
In times when there are long lines to visit the Tower, we may simply bypass to create time to do other things.
