May I have suggestions for public transportation as to how we can get from the cruise ship area to the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul?

I’m not sure which cruise port you’ll be at. But if you are along the Bosphorus, consider taking the tram. It runs along the Bosphorus, crosses the Galata Bridge and takes you right up the hill past the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and you can get out right at the Grand Bazaar.
Check out Rick’s guidebook to Istanbul for details.
And taxis would also be another option.

Another option is to walk. It is a bit of a hike but not overwhelming. You get to see a bit more that way.
My group walked all the way from the cruise terminal over the bridge to the Hagia Sophia and back through the Grand Bazaar. It was a lot of fun.
