Turkish coffee then an espresso martini.....did you sleep that night 😆. Turkey is fabulous. The people are so hospitable, and the amount of history is incredible. One of my favourite destinations ❤️
How easy was it to order food from the stalls and vendors (as opposed to restaurants)? Did you need to learn a few words of Turkish or did you basically just point to what you wanted? :) Also, are contactless payment methods popular there (tapping your card to a reader or using your phone)?
It’s easy enough even with no Turkish spoken. Just point! Always good to learn hello and thank you in any country you are traveling to. From what I remember, most places will accept card. But can’t remember if it’s insert or tap
A visa is only needed if you are staying longer than 30 days, otherwise it’s not necessary. I just traveled in September thinking the same thing. Paid $50, went to the airport and they said it’s not necessary lol.
Thanks Ashley! I’ll have to make a reel soon. It’s really simple anyway…sunscreen and moisturizer in the AM and for the PM its cleansing oil, face wash, retinol, and moisturizer!
👋🏻 if we weren’t walking, we used Uber the entire time we were there. No issues, very easy to get one because taxis also use the Uber app. Inexpensive as well 👍🏼
Mashallah mashallah marhaba marhaba love respect and support Turkey and it's beautiful people from Pakistan 🙂🇵🇰🇹🇷🥰😍. May Allah SWT bless Turkey and it's beautiful people from Pakistan 🙂🇵🇰🇹🇷🥰😍
First of all... I just laughed the entire vid... f@#4ing funny as hell.. Brutally honest review overall... lol....

I kinda like your ways and vids that you put out.. unique indeed... Loved it. Please one advice stay at better hotels.. WTF: "excited to leave Cairo".... hhahahhahahahha.

Thanks Eileen for the very candid reality tour you put on for us soon visiting Istanbul!
You’re very welcome
Love it. Coming to Istanbul soon and I'm watching this vlog
Btw the bread you bought is called simit and it's famous in istanbul for being tasteless actually. Everywhere else in turkey it's a little sweet.

My super power is that I can sleep through anything….Turkish coffee and espresso martini included
thanks for your video, shall use this for reference when in Istanbul as I am planning for a week.
You will have plenty of time to explore for a week! We had to squeeze as much as we could in 3 days 😅
Hi my friends.. So beautiful... Thank you for sharing 🥰🥰🥰I loved ur video

Great Vlog 🤩 Beautiful Couple ❤
What was the month when you traveled? And how was the weather ?
September, the weather was pleasant!
Thank you.
You’re welcome
A visa is only needed if you are staying longer than 30 days, otherwise it’s not necessary. I just traveled in September thinking the same thing. Paid $50, went to the airport and they said it’s not necessary lol.
Wow, that’s good to know! They didn’t make that very clear on the US travel site or in customs 🫣
Just my luck I see this literally 10 minutes after buying that e visa. Better safe than sorry I suppose
You Do need a visa even for 10 days .....
Miami to ist no visa once there passport check said. You need a visa 😅 came bak two months ago
How was the weather in September? 🙂
Great video and narration.
Just curious, what camera are you using to record?
Thanks
Thanks!
I’m using the DJI Osmo Pocket 🤘🏻
Do you think 3 days was enough in Istanbul for sightseeing and shopping? What hotel do u recommend?
Yes 3 days is definitely enough! We stayed had a private room in Wabi Sabi hostel which is was clean and well located but also very small.
Great video, thank you. What day was it that Dolmabahce Palace was closed?
Thank you for watching! The palace is closed on Monday
@@eileensworld That's great, thank you.
Hi did you went on weekends? How much did you spend for 3 days?
I was there from Sunday to Thursday. I don’t when a final total but as you can see from the prices I from them video - it’s all pretty inexpensive!
Lovely. ^^One of the names of Istanbul is actually "City of the seven hills."
I didn’t know that! But it makes sense…I’m sure I had to walk up a couple of those hills 😒
Drop your skincare routine!(: you look so glowy
Thanks Ashley! I’ll have to make a reel soon. It’s really simple anyway…sunscreen and moisturizer in the AM and for the PM its cleansing oil, face wash, retinol, and moisturizer!
Next time you should try Turkish specialties such as kebab and lahmacun.
For sure 👌🏼
I usually buy the visa at istanbul airport is cheaper. $30 vs $ 50 online 😊😊😊
That is good to know! I like to be prepared so if I always buy whatever I can ahead of time 😅.
I keep hearing that from the states you only need a visa if you're an official. Did they ask to see your visa?
Yes they did - it’s always best to check the US travel site before your trip to see the entry requirements
Thank you
🤘🏻
Did you have access to wifi everywhere like for using google maps to walk around or did u purchase a sim there for data?
I had a phone plan with Google Fi at the time so it worked internationally. If your phone has esim capabilities I would highly recommend that option
Great video. 👍
Not sure if I missed it somewhere, but which month did you do this Turkey trip?
September
Hello! How did you manage to use the taxi without being scammed ?
We only used Uber and Uber uses taxi
Hey when did you visit. I looks sunny.
Early October
Hey do you said you arrived in the city and exchanged money but how did you get into the city😅
Uber
hi, any recommended shops for super clone watches?
If you’re looking for knockoffs, you can find them at the Grand Bazaar
22:02 we Turks dont use that much sauce. Thats why we eat our meals with drinks.
Ahhh good to know that
What a beautiful city
There is so much history here!

Istanbul was coo 😎
İsanbul da hersey normalde türkiye de satilanlardan daha pahalı 😢
Sigh…like in all tourist places around the world 🥲

No. I prefer it that way
