Panoramic Istanbul Wheelchair Accessible Tour

Our most accessible tour!
The Panoramic Istanbul Wheelchair Accessible Tour is the most accessible tour we offer. A wheelchair accessible van will spend 4 hours driving you between the most spectacular sights in Istanbul.

On this Istanbul wheelchair accessible tour, disabled visitors will be able to avoid the cobblestones and hills in Istanbul. The tour includes a professional tour guide, a wheelchair accessible van, and a driver.

You’ll be able to see more of Istanbul on this tour than any other tour. In addition to the typical guided tour sights like the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, you’ll also see other less-visited attractions like the Galata Tower, the Dolmabahce Palace, the Rumeli Fortress, and the Valens Aqueduct.
