Ah, Istanbul in spring! A city shimmering with the promise of warmer days, a kaleidoscope of colours and scents, a symphony of sounds and a delectable feast for the senses. This is not just a trip; it’s an exploration, my dear Luxury Gap Year Travellers, a journey into the heart of history, myth, and unparalleled indulgence. For our two discerning couples, I've curated an experience that seamlessly blends adventure, cultural immersion, and, of course, the finest luxuries Istanbul has to offer.

Spring in Istanbul (April-May) offers a sweet spot – pleasant weather, fewer crowds than the summer peak, and still the vibrant energy of a city coming alive. Expect temperatures averaging between 10-20°C (50-68°F), ideal for leisurely strolls and exploring ancient wonders. The cost of flights and accommodation will be moderately priced compared to the summer rush, but still consider booking in advance for the best deals. Think of this as your preemptive strike against inflated tourism costs.

Our itinerary begins with a private transfer from the airport to your luxurious hotel in the Sultanahmet district, a beautiful blend of historic and modern amenities. We'll indulge in a welcome dinner at a Michelin-recommended restaurant, specialising in modern Turkish cuisine with a twist, costing approximately €200 per couple.

Our expert guide will unravel the intertwined tales of emperors, sultans, and the city itself, costing €300 for the group including entrance fees. We'll then cruise along the Bosphorus strait, absorbing the stunning views of Istanbul's cityscape, interspersed with charming waterfront villages and ornate palaces. A private yacht for our exclusive use will add a touch of opulence to the experience and will cost €400. A delicious seafood lunch, served onboard, is included in the yacht charter.

For a dash of adventure, a hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia, a surreal landscape of fairy chimneys and underground cities, is a must (€800 per couple, including flights and transfers). This magical experience provides stunning views and is something you will never forget. We will be treated to a traditional Turkish breakfast of freshly baked bread, olives, cheeses, and sweet delights.

Our culinary journey continues with a private Turkish cooking class, where we'll learn to prepare some classic dishes such as delicious baklava and mantı, under the expert guidance of a renowned chef. Expect to pay around €150 for the group. The warm aromas of spices and fresh herbs will fill the air. We will spend an enjoyable afternoon, enjoying freshly brewed Turkish coffee and çay.

The city is teeming with life: bustling markets overflowing with spices, carpets, and ceramics; the scent of strong Turkish coffee, sweet baklava, and simit mingling in the air; the captivating melodies of street musicians blending with the sounds of the modern city. You’ll see friendly locals and fellow tourists – everyone embracing Istanbul's magic. Cats, popular pets in Istanbul, might even join you on your adventures. The Ottoman architecture, with its stunning domes and minarets, is a sight to behold. We can further explore the Topkapi Palace and the Basilica Cistern at €200 for the group including the entrance fees.

Finally, our last evening will be celebrated with a farewell dinner at a rooftop restaurant offering breathtaking panoramic views of the city bathed in the golden light of sunset. Expect to spend approximately €250 per couple on this luxurious experience.
