We are in Istanbul now and it is incredibly expensive. We went to the Asian side today and donar prices were half Taksim area. We paid $18 for a Turkish bath & scrub. Where we went last year by Taksim wanted over $100. Beer costs more than my watering hole in Texas.

I've been in Istanbul for 8 days last summer and then I went by rented car from Bodrum to Antalya, it was simply amazing, but nowadays, due to the inflation, Turkey is extremely expensive. The price of the museum's tickets, in particular, is insane. The topkapi, for example costs more than double than the Galleria degli Uffici of Florence that is one of the most important museums in the world. Even entering Hagia Sofia costs more than Galleria degli Uffizi, it doesn't make any sense. Turkey is beautiful but I would not reccomend it in this period, it's too expensive. Even a beer or a coffee are more expensive than here in Italy.

I have returned from my second to Türkiye 10 days ago. I love it there, and I love Istanbul. However, I must say that eating in Istanbul has become a bit of a nuisance, in the touristy areas. We stay near Sirkeci train station and Eminönu pier, just opposite Gülhane Park. We find this location fantastic. But the restaurants in this area are now mostly really agressive (the touts, not the restaurants). We are well travelled and can handle it and most experiences we had were fine. But the touts infront of most of the restaurants can be so annoying, that it spoils your experience. On the last evening of our trip, we had a nice meal in one of those restaurants. The meal was good but rather expensive. However: once we were customers of the restaurant, we became almost invisible to the staff. We had to beg for any kind of service (even for paying the bill) and had to wait for ages, even though their where almost no other customers. On the same time: 3 staff members tried to get new customers into the restaurant, in a very disturbing way. It was not a good way for me, to finish this trip to Türkiye.

Istanbul became more expensive than other European countries. Why would a tourist pay 50usd for Hagia Sophina or topkapi palace!!! Even Louvre entry fee is way less than that!!!!

Hello Bery, it is not by the chance the restaurant where you sitting in 11:40 this one - Kösk Kebap very near to entrance to Topkapi palace? 😊 That garden looks familiar for me. Thank. Martin

it seems that the entrance fee for topkapi and hagia sofia are too expensive compared to my last visit on 2011 and 2019

Hi Bery! Thank you so much for your helpful videos 🙏. I had couple questions to ask you.
Does Turkish restaurants and shops accept Apple Pay?
Also, is Istanbul e-pass worth buying? Please advise.

The entrance fees to most of these places are overpriced.
