Istanbul: 2-in-1 Gedikpasa Hamam & Historical Costume Photo

Lose yourself in the golden age of the Ottoman Empire with an immersive 2-in-1 experience right in the heart of Istanbul's Old City, just next to the most important landmarks: Grand Bazaar, Hagia Sophia, and Blue Mosque.

This unique package bundles the profound relaxation of a centuries-old hammam just in front of the famous Grand Bazaar with the thrilling fantasy of a royal Ottoman photoshoot, in a studio directly at Sultanahmet Square, allowing you to truly step back in time.

Your journey takes place at the spectacular Gedikpasa Historical Turkish Bath, an architectural marvel that has been welcoming guests for 550 years. Here, you will enjoy a 1 or 2-hour authentic bathing ritual. Let the ancient, heated marble soothe your muscles as you use the provided traditional kese (scrub glove) to refresh your skin. Towels, slippers, and premium cosmetics are all included so you can simply focus on the tranquil atmosphere.
The immersion continues as you step into our extensive Ottoman costume wardrobe. Choose your historical persona—from a regal Sultan or Sultana to a traditional warrior—and complete your look with authentic props like ornate turbans, crowns, swords, and fans. A professional team will guide your poses to ensure you look like true royalty.

Flexible Itinerary: Customize your journey through time! You can choose to enjoy the costume photoshoot before your relaxing bath, or don your royal attire after you have been cleansed and refreshed in the hammam, or even on another day when you are available.

Complete your historical escape by relaxing with complimentary Turkish tea, rich coffee, and sweet Turkish delight. You will leave this unforgettable experience with one beautiful, physical printed photo per booking to immortalize your journey into the past.
