Транспорт

Marmaray is the best option to go places close to the sea

Take the Marmaray train to go to places close to the sea. You can also leave on the integrated stops and take different metros to go inside of the city.
Обычаи и культура

Try to bargain at the small shops

Most probably they overcharge tourists, try to make bargain
Как сэкономить

Be careful with the Taxi's

Especially around the old city (Eminonu, Laleli etc.) and luxury places, taxi drivers may try to overcharge you. Ask them how much would they take you to a place in advance; or use taxi calling apps Bitaksi, Uber (calls taxi) or Getir (Bitaksi integrated) to see the ETA's and estimated prices.
Транспорт

Metrobus is the fastest way to move on the main road (E5)

But during work hours (especially in the mornings and the evenings) it can be really crowded, so watch out.
