"This book was excellent! If you are going on vacation to Istanbul I highly recommend it!
I am a big fan of Rick Steve's guidebooks. I have to admit I wasn't sure what to expect from his first guidebook not written by him but by an Istanbul couple he does tours with. This book pretty much lived up to the standard I have come to expect from his guidebooks.
The little maps were enormously helpful. The maps in this book were the primary ones my husband and I used navigating around the city. We used this guide to find a hotel and many restaurants. We were pleased with both our accomodations at the Stone Hotel and dining experiences.
The self-guided tours around the city and various sites were enormously helpful and saved us the cost of tour guides. We also saved money by taking the public ferry for a Bosphorus Cruise rather than a private tour company. The book made it easy to figure out and provided interesting facts about the sites we were seeing on the cruise.
I would have liked more information on daytrips near the Istanbul area. That is the one feature from previous city guides that I didn't see much of in this book."
