The view was amazing. I'm glad we arrived very early. Unfortunately the workers looked bored the whole time. They did not smile.Markus

We had a great view over Istanbul. The small informative descent in the tower is also great. Unfortunately, there are no toilets on site

Gain panoramic views of Galata Tower
See one of the most iconic landmarks of Istanbul: The Galata Tower. This ginormous tower has been watching the city for over 6 centuries from this exact location and has become one of the most well-known symbols of the city. From the terrace, see one of the most - if not the most beautiful view of this stunning city, all of the historical peninsula, the Topkapı Palace, Hagia Sophia, the Bosphorus Strait, the Bosphorus Bridge, the Marmara Sea, both European and Asian sides of Istanbul, Golden Horn and even the Prince Islands. Spend as much time as you want to take the most incredible pictures of Istanbul.
