Steves’ Istanbul guide made preparation & enjoying our trip to Istanbul a breeze. I was slightly hesitant when I saw that he’d “outsourced” this book to additional writers, but the guide lives up to the standard of his additional books. Simple and entertaining to read, full of appealing and practical information, well-organized, full of maps and sample walks & itineraries, this guide was all my wife and I needed for our 4 day stay in Istanbul. My only quibble: especially knowing how much Steves likes Turkey, why limit this guide book only to Istanbul? I have to reflect that at sometime in the future, a “Rick Steves’ Turkey” will become a reality, introducing even more people to this gorgeous country.
If you’re familiar with Rick’s guides you know they’re the best, and this Istanbul guide is no different. If you’re not familiar with Rick, now you are! Go out and get this guide if you’re going to Istanbul.

We aren’t going to Istanbul for severly months yet but I am loving this book. It seems full of honest information like the best days to visit attractions and prices . It also gives a excellent picture of the people, customs and culture.

Are the maps visible? I’ve looked at the sample, but no maps are included. Just learning to use my Kindle, and am having difficulty with guidebooks.I find it hard to navigate Let’s Go Turkey, and impossible to read its maps. Can maps be enlarged on Kindle as on a computer? If not, I don’t see much use in guidebooks on Kindle.
PS I know this is not a review, but how else can I get help?

Rick Steve made an brilliant choice to have guides Lale Surmen Aran and Tankut Aran write this book. They clearly know and like their city, know what is helpful and appealing to tourists, and wrote a very thorough, informative, and user-friendly guide.
I appreciated the format of the concise Sights and Experiences sections, followed by chapters offering more in-depth information on the self-guided walks and tours. This format was extremely useful as I plotted my days and then toured the city. Simple, useful maps are included in each walk and tour section.
I want to have seen the chapters on Turkish History and Culture and Understanding Islam at the beginning of the book rather than the end, as I reflect they are of fantastic importance to westerners visiting this incredible city.
Another book I highly recommend to supplement this book is Istanbul’s Bazaar Quarter: Backstreet Walking Tours. This book is written in the same spirit as the Ancient Town Back Streets Walk chapter in Rick Steve’s book, but offers four separate walking tours, and goes into much more detail about the bazaar quarter and the people you will meet there.

Rick Steve’s Istanbul was my first Rick Steve guidebook, and overall I was very pleased. I highly recommend Istanbul, and I highly recommend this book.
