Hehe – I would say 3 full days gives it a decent amount of time to see the Old Town and main attractions, but you could easily spend 5 days there if you want to explore a bit more of the other side of the river, or visit the whirling dervishes or spend time in museums. It’s an amazing city with so much to see and do.
Oh I know – thankfully they do, otherwise I don’t think he’d still be doing it. And at least he gets to scratch off a lot of places on our wall map!! 🙂

It’s a beautiful city isn’t it Ruth and I agree, I’d love to do the Bosphorus cruise if I ever get to return

This time I’M jealous of YOU! How many days total would you say would be enough to see Istanbul properly?
And your husband’s work schedule – ugh. I do hope they pay him well for the exhaustion they put him through.

I was in Istanbul years ago and so enjoyed your “quick” tour – you got around quite well! My son wanted to do the boat tour on the Bosphorus, and we met two friendly Turkish young men on the trip. It’s always special when you get to know locals.

I know, I definitely needed a holiday by the time I got back haha!! Yeah it’s a 4hr flight and then a 3 or 4 hr time difference (depending on time of year as we move our clocks twice a year here in the UK, so it was 4 when I visited) – so yeah you lose 8 hours travelling, basically a whole day which is annoying.
