Almost nothing in Istanbul's Sultanahmet was made for the spot it occupies. An Egyptian obelisk stands beside a bronze column brought from Delphi, and a reservoir under the street rests on columns taken from older buildings.

Along the Golden Horn, Fener and Balat are the quarters where Istanbul's Greeks, Jews, Armenians and Bulgarians were allowed to build, and almost every stop there was granted rather than built by right. On the Aegean coast, Ephesus was the Roman capital of Asia, a marble port city that died when its harbor silted into farmland.

Each tour takes about 120 to 150 minutes over 9 to 12 stops. Stop 1 of every tour is free to hear before you buy.
