The Turks captured Constantinople in 1453. Vasco da Gama reached India in 1498, which means there was a span of 45 years between these two events. This period marked significant changes in trade routes and exploration, as European powers sought new paths to the East following the fall of Constantinople.
The shortest trade route between India and Constantinople would be the land and sea route. This route would involve traveling overland from India to a port on the Arabian Sea, then sailing across the Arabian Sea, through the Red Sea, and finally into the Mediterranean Sea to reach Constantinople. This combination of land and sea travel would be more efficient than either the land or sea route alone due to geographical constraints and historical trade patterns.

There is no direct relationship; the Turks were never much interested in exploration and discovery. But in their attempts to control and profit from Europe's desire for spices from the Orient - India and southeast Asia - they indirectly encouraged the European explorers and discoverers to attempt to sail AROUND the Turks. Columbus sailed west from Spain in the belief that not only was the world round (he was right, of course, but everyone was already certain of this) but that he could sail west and reach India. He even named the islands that he discovered the "West Indies".

The two bodies of water that the Muslim armies crossed to reach Constantinople were the Mediterranean Sea and the Sea of Marmara. The Mediterranean Sea provided access to the eastern side of Constantinople, while the Sea of Marmara separated the city from the Anatolian peninsula. These waterways played a crucial role in the strategic positioning and military campaigns of the Muslim armies during the siege of Constantinople.

Previously, the Europeans could reach the eastern spice markets in caravans through the deserts. In the late 14th century the Ottoman Turks blocked the way to the east. So, the traders had to find a new route to the East.
Generally speaking, Constantinople was not a likely place for Vikings to travel to. If any peoples from Northern Europe wished to travel there, it would require a voyage south to the Straits of Gibraltar and sail eastward in the Mediterranean Sea. After reaching the Aegean Sea, it would require a land trip to reach Constantinople.
