Sunrise balloon, blue mosque, Bosphorus dinner
Seven nights cover Turkey's two essential cities — Istanbul for the Hagia Sophia + Bosphorus + bazaar walking, Cappadocia for the cave-hotel-with-balloon experience that's on every Indian honeymooner's feed. Istanbul base is Sultanahmet (walking distance to the big sights). Cappadocia base is a mid-tier cave hotel in Göreme or Uçhisar; the balloon is booked for Day 1 of Cappadocia so you have buffer nights if wind cancels (about 20% chance). Internal flight Istanbul → Kayseri (75 min) is bundled.
