Istanbul is one of the world's most important migratory routes for birds of prey and storks. Would you like to witness this visual spectacle? You can witness this epic migration that takes place throughout the spring and autumn months.
The only place in the world where so many and such close views of raptors can be seen is the Bosphorus in Istanbul. The back and forth journeys between the Black Sea, the Sea of Marmara, and the Aegean Sea continue all day for feeding purposes. Due to covering such long distances, the number of people fascinated by raptors is increasing every day.
If you want to experience the enchanting daily journeys of storks and raptors migrating between Asia and Europe across the Bosphorus in Istanbul, as well as the captivating migrations of the raptors, you can contact us.

Handmade Turkish rugs are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Turkey, showcasing a traditional craft deeply rooted in history. Predominantly crafted in various regions of Anatolia, these rugs are meticulously handwoven using natural materials such as wool or silk.
Each rug is distinguished by regional patterns, color palettes, and motifs. Turkish rugs often feature geometric designs, botanical motifs, and historical symbols. Woven with care on hand looms, each rug becomes a unique piece shaped by the skills and cultural heritage of the artisan.
Turkish rugs are prized not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for their durability and strength. The handmade nature of these rugs makes each one a carefully crafted work of art. Beyond their traditional use in Turkish homes, these rugs find a place in a broad spectrum of interiors, seamlessly blending traditional Turkish culture with modern spaces.
In summary, handmade Turkish rugs embody the artistry, craftsmanship, and cultural significance that make them an integral part of Turkish heritage.

This is Aya Therapon Church in Sirkeci, Istanbul. It is a Greek Orthodox Church. It is on the left side of the tram line going from Gülhane Park to Hagia Sophia. It is only open on Mondays. Tens of thousands of people pass by here every day but no one notices it. The spring water flowing from 4 fountains inside is said to be good for people with eye problems and mental depression. Here, after the priest reads for healing, people wash their hands and faces with the ayazma water, then light candles and wish their illnesses to be cured.
Burası İstanbul Sirkeci'deki Aya Therapon Kilisesi. Bir Rum Ortodoks Kilisesi. Gülhane Parkı'ndan Ayasofya yönüne giden tramvay hattının sol tarafında kalıyor. Sadece pazartesi günleri açık. Her gün on binlerce insan buranın önünden geçiyor ama kimse burayı farketmiyor. İçerisindeki 4 çeşmeden akan kaynak suyunun, göz problemi yaşayan ve ruhsal bunalımı olan kişilere iyi geldiği söyleniyor. Burada rahip şifa için okuma yaptıktan sonra insanlar ayazma suyuyla ellerini ve yüzlerini yıkadıktan sonra mumları yakarak hastalıklarının iyileşmesini diliyor.

Kuymak es un plato tradicional de la región del Mar Negro de la cocina turca, que se disfruta comúnmente durante el desayuno. Es una deliciosa mezcla de mantequilla, harina de maíz y varios quesos, creando un sabor que te deja con ganas de más. Graba este video con mi familia durante nuestra visita a la meseta de Rize, Huser, en la región del Mar Negro. La gente en la región del Mar Negro casi siempre disfruta de Kuymak en cada desayuno, y en algunas zonas, este sabor también se conoce como "Muhlama".

A pleasant Turkish coffee break with my guests! ☕️💫 Sometimes our tours can be tiring, although it is not proven that Turkish coffee is good for fatigue, you feel that your body is resting when you drink it. There is also an expression in Turkish called "tiredness coffee". 💕
