Although there aren’t many cruises that depart from Istanbul, there are still some great accessible cruise options. Istanbul accessible cruises allow the opportunity to see this magnificent ancient city as well as visit other ancient destinations like Israel, Egypt, and Rome.

Before you begin your wheelchair accessible Istanbul cruise, you’ll have an opportunity to choose from several accessible guided tours. An accessible walking tour of the Hagia Sophia and Grand Bazaar is one of the most popular options, while an accessible Istanbul driving tour allows you to see many of the neighborhoods outside the Old Town.
