If you are going to Istanbul for the first time in your life and do not know where to start sightseeing, the following suggestion may suit you.
Many companies on the market offer tourists organised tours of the city. You can join the organised group and visit the city and its monuments with the entire coach of other tourists. What if you like to explore the city independently and at your speed? What if you would like to get some small tips at the start and then be able to move around the city on your own? “Istanbul – an idea for sightseeing” is my new idea of combining comfort and time-saving, with the freedom of moving around the city and the joy of travel.
