My wife and I just visited Istanbul and Turkiye last week. Your videos played a huge role in our decision to travel to Turkiye. It was a wonderful trip. Thank you for all that you do!
That’s great to hear!! Thank you for sharing you amazing experience with us 🫶
My favourite place on earth. I lived there for six years working as an English teacher. 4 years on the Anatolian side (Kozyatagi) and for 2 years ( Haskoy) on the European side.
A truly wonderful place.
Hi is it safe to live there for foreign women alone? So not a hotel holiday but a woman in an apartment. Thanks for your answer
@@worldbestalwayshas to be safe u might meet friends after sometimes there n u good then,but it is safe theres lot of foreigners
You truly describe Türkiye so well. I have been following your channel for a while and I am currently in Ankara visiting. I have been here for 2 months now and I am amazed at how quickly one gets to know the neighborhood shopkeepers. I have 3 supermarkets within a two-minute walking distance. There’s a language barrier but we somehow work it out with hand gestures and Google Translate. I love the people, their culture, and the food!
I'm almost midway through a two month stay here in Istanbul, and so far I am really enjoying the city (especially the ferries). I am relying on Google Translate heavily - and everyone so far has been very helpful. I'm staying in Kadiköy, close enough to the main area of activities, so it's not quite so quiet here, but I can shut the window when it gets too much :) Thanks for the video!
Got back from Türkiye a couple of days ago and I just can’t wait to go back! The culture, the people, the infrastructure is so good!! And yes, they are super helpful and they were so excited to hear I learnt a bit of Turkish just by watching Turkish shows 🫶🏻 It’s a piece of heaven on Earth 🇹🇷🧿♥️
Thank you for your super informative videos, used a lot of your tips 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Is Istanbul safe?
@@gjjnfgghmmnkkllcd7820 Istanbul is as safe as London, Paris and Rome.
😂😂more than New York . Istanbul is one of the safest cities in the world
I was in Istanbul last week, stayed in Sultanahmet for a week with my family, absolutely fell in love with the place. Already planning to go back😊Even though the place it’s the busiest, it’s the best choice in my opinion as it’s closer to the iconic attractions. ❤
Great to hear!🫶
ماشاءاللہ بہت عمدہ
Dear Berry a month ago we returned from Istanbul (after a year); despite inflation and rising prices, people remain just as nice and helpful, accommodating ... from the European side we set off, by public transport, by boat, to Asian, super experience (cards of course we have for next)... I hope that in a year or sooner, Istanbul again. Milan from the Czech Republic
Nice presentation, very informative for people visiting for the first time, your last tip concerning trying to communicate with them in Turkish language and how they really like it and will treat you differently is spot on, its good that you've noticed that; excellent work.
I met so many nice cats and dogs there.
I met a female red ginger cat too which is quite uncommon to find and a really nice red ginger guy who came to see me. I will not forget the cats in Istanbul. They are very aware and smart.
Awwwww! Ginger cats are so cute!! Istanbul cats are super friendly, I cannot imagine Istanbul without cats 🐈🐈⬛
Same here. As a crazy cat person I loved the cats. We had mumma cat and the kittens outside our hotel. Brought them breakfast every morning. One restaurant we ate at a few times one cat I shared my dinner with everytime. I think he got more than me lol
Thanks for enjoy talking. Greetings from Izmir-TURKEY. 👋
Wonderful, you’re great ❤❤❤, enjoyed your tips 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Very interesting video, but also so helpful in case I would visit this awesome country. Each info is truly important to approach Turkey in the best way possible. Thank you so much
Lovely Video Bery👍. It just reminds me how much I miss Istanbul. Thanks So Much for sharing. ☘🥰
Very nice video ❤
Nice video had never seen before thanks so much
I went to Istanbul last year but I just stayed 2 days, then I went to the cities in the Aegean side.
Espero volver definitivamente pero me quedaría más días en Estambul y tus videos nos ayuda bastante. Yo seguí tus consejos de donde comer postres turcos en Estambul :)
Another excellent Vlog. Well done.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you Bery- really enjoy your informative videos on Turkiye. Hopefully a visit next year 🙏 can't wait. 🙂
Great and informative vid as always. As a tourist, its good to know the local resident experience and alternatives. Makes it more cost effective for those travelers on a limited budget.
Very true!
Greetings from El Paso! I think this is the first of your videos I have ever seen. Istanbul is on my short list (next couple of years) of places to visit. Hopefully I can make it there by next spring. Your video was great. I am more enthusiastic about visiting than I have ever been!
Thank you sister for sharing your travelling tips for Istanbul with us it's really helpful tips for 1st time traveller like me , also can u plz make new vlog for transportation frm ist to Istanbul city centre 🙏,Lots of love frm Pakistan 🇵🇰 ❤
I love your videos...they are great
This is the only channel on Istanbul I need. Thank you! Can't wait to visit!
Have fun!
Nice, informative video.
Thank you!
You are doing great.i loved your channel, videos are amazing. 🤩👏
Yay! Thank you!
Very good episode i like it
Thanks for watching!
Love it
I have been first to Turkey 🇹🇷 ❤i love it MashaAllah 🎉😂❤
I wonder if locals think/ worry about potential future earthquake? 🤔 ...maybe with the consideration of the buildings safety from the last century-ies... Not that I am negative, but Istanbul has clearly very specific location so just wondering HOW locals approache to this type of thinking..🤷🏻♀️... I mean, is it the same as living on the west coast of U.S. when the architecture is already suited for this kind of situation? Considering, Istanbul is very ancient megapolis plus the building amnesty from previous years... I don't know, hard to say... Maybe you can shed a little light on this topic 😊 Thank you, love your videos 💯👌
Hello, I am one of the local people. We all have earthquake awareness. On August 17, 1999, a major earthquake occurred in a region close to Istanbul. Thousands of people died. Since then, the rules for the construction of buildings have changed a lot. Today, with the support of the state and local municipalities, old houses are being demolished and replaced with earthquake-resistant new ones. However, very old houses or structures that are historical monuments are strengthened with steel construction. However, in a city where 16 million registered people, +3 million refugees and illegal immigrants, and 16 - 17 million tourists come annually, the change in construction normally progresses slowly. My advice to future tourists or long-term stays is to stay in newly built buildings.
Nice 👍
Excelente!

Thank u❤❤
You're welcome 😊
Thank you for all your videos. You make everything very real and interesting. Can you do a video on what to do if you get sick? What is the care like? Do they have z lot of chemist shops for instance ?
The historic importance of this beautiful city cannot be overstated - no wonder it was such a pivotal place given it being built on two continents - and by the way - I never knew this before watching this video so thanks.
We are planning to shift to Istanbul soon. We are Canadian, but most of the time expend in Dubai, we will be grateful to contact with you as our local advisor. We can expend USD 8K per month without house rent as we will buy our own house. We are a practicing muslim and will love to stay in the Asian side near to any local sunni mosque.
There are thousands of mosques in Istanbul. 8k USD, excluding rent, is enough for 1 year. :) My recommendation: Üsküdar, Kadıköy, Maltepe, Kartal or Pendik districts.
Başakşehir i araştırabilirsiniz.
You made a nice video with good information. Last month I visited Istanbul with my family. We enjoyed lots. I wish visit again Bosporus , historic Masque, museums many mores & foods and tea ☕️ ❤
Thank you
So nice of you!
You are sooo cute 🥰 my love 😍🌹🇬🇧
11:21 huh!? The train goes under the Bosphorous!? First time i hear this, its actually exciting 😃😃
Denizin altından geeçen iki tünel var. Trenlerin geçtiği marmaray ve araçlların geçtiği Avrasya tüneli.
Thank you Bery for these wonderful videos. I was in Istanbul for the second time last month. I miss the food so much! Have a fantastic summer. Will you be having a vacation during this time? If so, where do you go? Is there an area or city you would like to visit?
I want to visit Turkey very badly. I will go one day in future
COOL I LOVE TURKEY
Sister thank you
You’re welcome 😊
❤Turkiye ❤️🇹🇷

I want to visit Istanbul again.
You’re always welcome! ❤️
Saludos Bery desde Panamá,
Saludos hasta el bello 🇵🇦!
The bread belly’s are massive and fatty belly’s lol from those 😢pastry’s omg 😳 the ferry’s are great , these are old photos videos with the mask thing, lol, hardly anyone wears them anymore especially outdoors, lol 😂 the charade is over
Perhaps not what Bery was thinking of but there's a stark contrast between the friendliness of the Turks on either side of the Bosphorus. The Anatolian Turks (Asian) are much more friendly than their counterparts on the side that I live on. 🌸[PS I'm talking about shop owners and staff here]
Beautiful city
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
my mums turkish, after begging for years we finally moved here, to ankara close to the rest of my family. i love it here, good pay for a good job. much better education then back in the UK. no drugs (illegal) and cleaner.
Dear Bery, thank you so much for your informative videos! I am going to Istanbul in March. This is my 4th time! The previous times I had difficulties finding a bakery that sells bread. I am staying in the karakoy and galata area. I couldnt fully understand the word you use for bakery here. Dure?
Hi!!! Where are you now!! Would like to meet you next year!!!
Hi there i love your videos and now watch them even more as i will be visiting istanbul in September 2023...we are budget travelers and i just wanted to buy a small peice of art like a painting to take back...do they have areas or shops where affordable art is avaliable made by local artists...thanks and much love from india❤
Istanbul is peace.
👍👍👍
Hello Bery.
Another great video !
Does HAVAIST bus accept Debit Card when we jump to this bus ?
How does the system work ?
Thank you again.

Hello Bery. Another great vídeo !
2 questions:
* Is there a need for an ADAPTER to charge a cell phone in Istanbul ?
* Is there a TAX Refund when we leave the country ?
Thank you in advance for your comments.
If you are from Portugal, no. There is no need for an adapter and yeah, there is tax refund.
The location of your shoot look very relaxing. Is it a park in Turkey? What is the name of the area?
It is so relaxing! That’s the place we always go for a walk and to relax 😅 is the area I live :)
Is not a park exactly, is the sea side in Kucukyali asian side. Cheers!
Where you at Ciudad Juarezalem? hahaha greetings from there, you are really beautiful 😍, I really want to visit Türkiye. 👽
Hello, been many times in Turkey mainly istanbul and some other places! I want to go Ankara this time but from Middle East there aren’t any direct flights! How can I reach from istanbul to Ankara? What’s the fast train should I buy ticket and from where?
Is eskeshiher worth going?
Thanks

I have celiac, would i still be able to eat anywhere or should i just go to market
Hey,
I don’t eat gluten by choice and I can recommend you the following: get gluten free bread from a bakery and go to restaurants with that bread, where you can try the dishes with the gluten free bread. 😊
You forgot one thing you will see virtually in every single block: chemists. I have always been amazed by this fact...
You mean the “eczane”? If so, so true! They are literally in every block even 3 within 50 mts 😅
Do you by that Pharmacists? Thats; what we call them on North America (Canada & US)
@@naima8392 Chemist is the word used in U.K.
What about non-Turks? What do they eat mainly?
I will come to Istanbul just for Kebab 😅
Hi Berry, I have a question. I am a senior citizen but still look young for my age but I have mobility issue having painful feet. I had foot surgery 4 months ago and now, my feet are worst than before. My spouse and I are going for a 3 week vacation to Turkey in March 2024 and I will be taking a mobility scooter to get around. Will I be out of place and attract a lot of attention with a mobility scooter?
Yes, you will stand out. Btw.the whole city is ups and downs(literally stands on hills).
It's very good, that's awesome 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍💞💞💕💕💕💖💖🫶🏻✨✨
I am going to be in Istanbul June 18 and 19th. Is there a holiday on any of these dates? Will the Grand Bazaar be open ?
June 18 and 19 are the 3rd and 4th days of the Sacrifice Feast. It is a religious holiday in the country, and places will be packed with people. The Grand Bazaar probably will be open, but they might announce it closer to the date.

Hi! Could someone please tell me if there are any possibilities to participate on a dolphin or whale watching tour near Istanbul?
na....there are no whales but dophins yes
You are from Mexico?? I looove Mexico
Yesssss! ❤️❤️🇲🇽🌮
@@BeryIstanbulTips are you married in Turkey? If so, how did that happen? 👰😊
Do u think it's good to go to Turkey in oct...
Sure! The weather is great and is considered shoulder season (less tourists).
Bread is staple
May i ask what its the cost of 1 loaf of bread that common one most households buy
1 litre of milk?
Bread is $0.25 - 210gr.
Milk is $1.20 - 1ltr.
There is inflation, but these prices are generally like this.
I have not heard even once about dog bites in Istanbul but it is pretty much prevalent there!! I don't know why?! Are dogs that sacred that no one can tell anything about homeless dogs in Istanbul which bite people in the city?
I dunno if someone ever told you this but you sound and sort of look a lot like Salma Hayek
Et pahalı olduğu için yiyemiyoruz :D
The only reason why i wanna travel to istanbull is becouse of the cat
Tengo entendido que vivir en la zona asiática, es más barato
Para nada, las rentas en ambas zonas rondan en lo mismo, aquí en el lado asiático cerca de mi casa, especialmente los depas casi en la playa, están en casi 100K liras mensuales, aquí en el lado asiático hay muchas zonas muy lujosas y caras, así que eso de que “es más barato” nada que ver, están igual.
Nmms!!! eres de juaritos

can anyone recommend a good hotel ?
We stayed at Hotel Celine, which is located in the Old City. If you value location, it is a fantastic hotel. It came with breakfast and the staff was super helpful. They also have a shuttle service to and from the airport. It is a former Ottoman mansion!
Look for a hotel in Sirkeci or Cankurtaran. Both areas are very convenient to the main sights like the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern etc. These 2 neighbourhoods are also convenient to the trams, ferries, and Marmaray.
Here I have a list with my recommended hotels for all budgets in different areas of Istanbul:
www.thatch.co/guide/2o4uz5gpbvss9
Don't go turkey to sit in the garden😂😂😂😂😂... sultan palace got hype.. 3/5.. Galata tower 2/5 hia Sofia 5/5, boat cruise 5/5, blue masque 4/5 , food 4.5/5, people 4/5, basilica 5/5, traffic 😂😂😂 is attraction. 3 days enough , until you there for honeymoon
Istanbul : the kingdom of cat
