ISTANBUL ONE DAY ITINERARY / THE ULTIMATE GUIDE

This is the perfect Istanbul one day itinerary and the ultimate guide for the best first day in Istanbul. With the help of a local, I give you an Istanbul city tour and show you what to do in Istanbul, what to see in Istanbul, what to eat in Istanbul, where to shop in Istanbul and discuss things like history in Istanbul, safety in Istanbul and transport in Istanbul.

My amazing guide Kemal was from   / istanbul.daily.city.tours.adore.tour  

Going into all the mosques is free. Basilica Cistern was a paid ticket.

Uber is available but only in certain zones of the historical district. Taxis are also available on the streets but be sure to negotiate prices ahead (our guide was excellent at this as he was a local).
Traffic can get intense in Istanbul so keep that in mind and give yourself extra time!

The location to enter Galataport from the Karakoy area was here: 2XFJ+WC Beyoğlu, İstanbul, Türkiye
