Disabled Holidays in Istanbul with Wheel in Shower, Wheelchair Ramps and Profiling Bed

Istanbul is ideal for either a city break or longer holiday. It is situated on the Bosphorus Strait and so straddles the two continents of Europe and Asia. Formerly Constantinople, the influence of those who have fought to control the city over the centuries is in evidence everywhere: Christian mosaics and churches, Islamic mosques and remnants from the Ottoman empire. Istanbul was the final stage on the Silk Routes that linked Asia and Europe and hence why the Greeks, the Persians, Romans and Venetians were so keen to be a part of it. Now you can celebrate Istanbul’s vibrant past and colourful present by visiting the minarets and bazaars, sampling the cuisine or seeing the sights such as Topkapi Palace or Hagia Sophia. A disabled friendly holiday in Istanbul is incredible!

How To Get There

Atatürk Airport is just 14 miles away from Istanbul with regular flights from most UK airports. Flying time is just under four hours.

Best Time to Go

Spring and autumn are the best times to visit Istanbul as the weather is good and there are lots of festivals. The summers can be stiflingly hot, conversely the winters can be bone-chillingly cold.
