Meeting & pickup
Central meeting is arranged to minimize unnecessary walking. Hotel pickup can be combined with a vehicle quote. Tell us about stairs, wheelchair dimensions, walking-aid use and transfer ability before confirmation.
Tickets
Any ticketed interior is optional and paid separately. We favor timed or quieter choices where official systems allow, but security waiting cannot be bypassed.
Duration & walking
About 2–3 hours, normally focused on one landmark or two nearby highlights, with pauses. The exact walking distance is adapted to the guest.
Suitability & accessibility
Designed for slower walkers, seniors and families, but “easy-paced” does not mean every historic site is step-free. A companion may be required for personal care or wheelchair pushing.
Payment, confirmation & cancellation
Your request is reviewed before it becomes a confirmed booking. Cash in EUR, USD, TRY or GBP is preferred. If card payment is available and any processing charge applies, the exact amount will be disclosed before payment and shown in your written payment instructions. No card details are collected on this page. Unless your written quote states a stricter supplier term, cancellation at least 24 hours before service is refundable. Yacht, special vehicle, ticket and third-party activity bookings may have separate conditions, which are shown before payment.
No compulsory shopping—ever
There are no required carpet, leather, jewelry, spice or souvenir stops. A shop, market or workshop is included only when it is part of the advertised subject or you ask for it. You are always free to leave without buying.
Know before you go
- A wheelchair-accessible lift vehicle must be requested in advance and, when available, begins no earlier than 09:00.
- Historic paving can be uneven and slippery in rain.
- Crowd levels and prayer closures may require substitutions.
- Bring essential medication and advise us of heat sensitivity.
Questions guests ask
Is this fully wheelchair accessible?
It can be adapted, but not every monument or historic pavement is barrier-free. We confirm a realistic route after learning your chair and transfer needs.
Can we use a normal minivan with a folding wheelchair?
Often yes if the chair folds and the guest can transfer safely; luggage and group size also matter.
Will we still see major sights?
Yes, but we prioritize one or two strong visits rather than rushing between many stops.
Are restrooms guaranteed at every stop?
No, but the route is planned around practical restroom and café opportunities.
