Start with Galata Tower - gives you a great 360-degree overview of Istanbul as a city. Basilica Cistern - amazing feat of architecture and engineering, and the spooky atmosphere is wonderful. Istanbul archeology museum near Topkapi Palace - extensive collection of artifacts in multiple buildings, the tile/ceramic collection is not to be missed.
For good eats check out... 23 Sep 2011 Kerstin, Australia:
"Cosy Pub" - the roof terrace has awesome views of the Blue Mosque and the sea/islands. Meal prices are average for an eat out in Istanbul (not expensive); great food, friendly staff and the best view (that I saw) in Istanbul!!!
For great nightlife try... 23 Sep 2011 Kerstin, Australia:
A nice meal somewhere and some Raki!
Don't miss... 23 Sep 2011 Kerstin, Australia:
Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace (wow), Bosphorus Cruise (quite cheap - 20 Euro for 2 hours), the shoe district, the Cats of Istanbul!!! And take a taxi ride if you've never experienced busy traffic like this before... driving in Istanbul is quite the art form.
Don't miss... 11 May 2011 Maria, Ecuador:
Don't miss Taksim square. Don't have dinner there though: it is toooooo expensive.
Don't miss... 30 May 2011 Manon, Canada:
agia sophia, spice bazar absolutely to see and shop
For good eats check out... 25 May 2011 Hariram, India:
The only drawback with the Sultanahmet area is the lack of different options for lunch & dinner.
For great nightlife try... 02 Apr 2011 Cara, USA:
Try to get out of the area where the hostel is located because it is a really touristy and expensive area. Palatium a couple of streets over is a great place to lounge, smoke hookah and enjoy an evening!
For great nightlife try... 09 Feb 2011 Patricia, USA:
Visiting the bazaars early evening.
