 // .............a new ferry that goes from Galataport to Karakoy and Eminonu.  Karakoy is walkable if you're mobile, and from there you can walk across the bridge and keep going into center city if you really like to walk. Eminonu is a great location for starting an exploration of center city OR for taking a ferry across to the Asian side of Istanbul.  The website also lists some restaurants/shops around Galataport.  So I'd check out the port website, which I believe is just www/galataport.com.

 

 

 Yep - ferry across the Golden Horn from Galataport to Eminonu sounds very convenient & pleasant. 

Then tram up to Sultanahmet or selection of ferries & tourboats - up the Golden Horn (great 19th / 20th Century engineering museum) or across to the Asian side (not much there, but - hey - you're in Asia) and up the Bosphorus to the Black Sea.
