Thank you!

Thank you for purchasing my Ultimate 4-day Istanbul travel itinerary! Below you'll find my top tips and recommendations for a 4-day trip to Istanbul, Turkey. I also include tips on transportation within the city, safety, and the best time of year to visit.

Itinerary

Istanbul makes for a great 4-day trip, as most of the top sights in the city can be explored over a few days - with time leftover to get lost wandering the charming streets or to people-watch for a few hours at a cafe. If you want to explore Turkey outside of Istanbul, allot at least 10 days in total for your trip.

Day 1

Start your first day in Istanbul with a traditional Turkish breakfast on Buyuk Hendek Caddesi (Street) with a view of the beautiful Galata Tower. Turkish breakfast consists of a giant spread of fresh jams, pastries, eggs, and produce. You have to try it at least once on your trip!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Hanna Claira

Available for hire

Hi there! My name is Hanna and I love to travel around the world and explore new places, eat good food, and experience different cultures. In 2021, I moved abroad to Istanbul, Türkiye and lived there for over a year. During that time, I had the opportunity to travel all around Türkiye, Europe, and the Middle East. I've traveled to nearly 20 countries so far! My Thatch guides include a mix of street food guides, weekend trip itineraries, cross-country road trip routes, and more. Not only do I love traveling, but I also love planning trips and creating travel guides. When traveling, my friends can always count on me to create an awesome trip itinerary. In addition to my posted guides listed here on Thatch, I also create custom travel itineraries, offer travel consultation calls, and provide curated recommendations.
