3 ways to spend less

  1. Accommodation is about 46% of a mid-range day in Istanbul. Booking a budget room instead saves about $42 per person per night, and booking early usually helps more than any other change.
  2. Budget travellers in Istanbul spend about $13 a day on local transport, against $33 mid-range: public transport instead of taxis closes most of that gap.
  3. Food, activities and extras are where daily spending varies most: the difference between a budget and a mid-range day here is about $28 per person. Make lunch your main meal and pick a few paid sights in Istanbul rather than many.
