Houston, TX (prHWY.com) November 20, 2012 - Handicapped Travel to Istanbul is complicated by the difficulties disabled travelers encounter when researching and planning the trip. The best accessible trips are well planned and full of great accessible sightseeing activities. Sage Traveling provides you with 8 keys to success for Istanbul accessible travel that give you everything you need to visit Istanbul with a disability.

Before you go into that much effort, be sure to concentrate on the Keys to a Successful Handicapped Trip to Istanbul provided below...

1. Boat cruise on the Bosporus

While the narrow streets and grand buildings in Istanbul provide great views, one of the greatest views is to see it all from the water. Build into your itinerary a full day to take an accessible boat cruise up the Bosporus to the Black Sea. Accessible boats depart from near the Galata Bridge.

2. Eat and shop with the locals in the Grand Bazaar
Visiting the Grand Bazaar has been a part of Istanbul daily life for over 500 years. Great restaurants and great souvenir shopping line the 58 covered streets that make up the bazaar. Much of it is wheelchair accessible, although you may encounter a few single steps and some cobblestones in the streets surrounding it.

3. Reserve accessible transportation to the sights in the old town
Because Istanbul is so hilly and the fact that there are such few accessible transportation options, many disabled tourists will need accessible taxis or wheelchair vans to get from the hotel to the major tourist sights like the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. Manual wheelchair users who can transfer into normal taxis will have an easier time getting around town.

4. Stay in the New District
If you need a wheelchair accessible hotel room, you are far more likely to find one in the New District (north of the Galata Bridge) than in the Old Town. It has a far more European feel to it than the Asian feel in the Old Town. Consequently, many western European hotel chains are located there that have higher accessibility standards. Many parts of it are flat, including Taksim Square.

5. Spend more time at Topkapi Palace than the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia combined
Although the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque are by far the most famous attractions in Istanbul, the lesser known Topkapi Palace has far more to see. The palace was home to the Ottoman Sultans for over 400 years. It not only has magnificent architecture and décor to view, it also houses several museums with various royal and religious artifacts. A half-day accessible visit to Topkapi Palace will be time well spent.
