Hello, and you are more than welcome to Istanbul. I myself am a true travel addict and before the pandemic, I care for travelers and sustainable tourism. Here I will share useful tips that may help you experience Istanbul in the best possible safe and secure way without hassle.
Generally most part of Istanbul is quite as safe as other Metropol European cities. In that case, you do not have to extra worry before even you start traveling. Istanbul is a mixture of all cultures that’s why it can be rich with multi-culture experiences for you.
Arriving in Istanbul is pleasant as we have one of the best Star Alliance member Turkish airlines ultra-modern with warm hospitality I assure you will love your flight. Transport from the airport to the city center is super easy with 7/24 registered Taxis at your order. If you prefer to use public transfer we have extra-large buses with AC to bring you to Taksim, etc. non-stop on the way. They are called Havabüs-Havaist just google it please for more info. Taksim – Nişantaşı area is considered to be the heart of the local city center where I live actually easy to spot for you.
Transportation in the city Use the Uber or Bitaksi app to call a taxi and if it is rush hour order 15-20 minutes earlier than you need. We have many options from private taxis to the subway is easy to reach almost any time of the day there is some option available depending on where you are. Our public transport is well maintained and disinfected on a regular basis and vehicles are mostly brand new so unlike you will have very comfortable and clean local transport.
Health tourism You already know where to visit, and what to eat in Istanbul but do you know that Istanbul became almost the capital of the health tourism center of the world? Having the latest modern Western technology equipment for treatment at way lower prices attracted a lot of visitors, who travel to get health services. Plastic surgery (Liposuction, BBL, Tummy tuck, etc.) besides eye, dental, and IVF treatments is in high demand. I have never asked for a Lymphatic Drainage Massage that much before. Lately, as many operations require a post-operation Lymphatic Drainage massage I have realized the importance of health. I strictly recommend you book at least 2 manual therapy sessions if possible before and after your operation as it is an obligatory part of health care and recovery. My certificate is approved by Turkish authorities (MEB) as a registered legit health massage.
Accommodation We have rooms for everyone literally everyone because from a local youth hostel to 5-star international hotels we have plenty of places to accommodate. If you prefer only touristy areas you may book your hotel around Sultanahmet (the old town). If you prefer local and tourist mixed dynamic life consider staying around the Taksim, Harbiye, and Nisantasi districts you will be totally satisfied with all the amenities easy to get within walking distance. Plus using Airbnb is highly recommended we have spacious, clean plenty of-room Airbnb flats in any location you may need.
Shopping Istanbul has all the well-known international brands up to date, including Paris, Milan, London, New York, and more fashion cities, as the textile industry is developing in the area. Worldwide known Turkish brands are mostly located in the Nisantası district for retail and wholesale.
Renting/Living long term As you know visiting a country as a tourist and deciding to live for a long term are totally different phenomena. If you decide to live or open a working office related to your business in Istanbul I strictly recommend you have local friends and collect the right information so you can make an easier decision that matches your choices on the right location with.
Architecture Istanbul is an old city mixed with a new skyscraper zone. So many buildings are historical and look old from the outside however many of them have gorgeous interior architecture and are fully refurbished with last modern design so that should not surprise you when you visit buildings. We have breathtaking Roman-Italian, Greek, and Armenian historical buildings nowadays used by locals for residential purposes.
