You may need an online Turkish to English translator always on hand to avoid miscommunication (probably should get a Turkish SIM-card w/ Internet access). Learn how to use and refill Istanbul Card before your arrival (watch some videos on Youtube)

It's such a unique place to be in. So much to see and do. Public transport is the way to travel, by far the easiest and cheapest. Forget Bosphorous tours, use the public ferry! Each area is different so it's great to be exploring. Very busy though!

If you like cities, Istanbul is fascinating. It is not quiet though! Apart from the major attractions, many within walking distance, we enjoyed a Bosphorus cruise and a visit to the amazing Museum of Innocence with insight into more recent history.

My first visit to Istanbul was a very positive surprise. A modern European city full of well maintained and preserved ancient sites. Easy to navigate...a great tourist city. I was there two full days, and could easily have spent a couple more.

Safe, friendly and so much to see! Lots of walking and hills wherever you go. Consider staying a few nights in Sultanhamet area, then move to a different section of town for a completely different experience. Like visiting several cities in one!
