Tell me, did someone rent a car in Istanbul? My husband does not like public transport. But it is not yet clear whether a car is needed in the Sultanahmet area or is everything within walking distance?

You don’t need to rent a car in Istanbul, there are always traffic jams, and in Sultanahmet you can’t drive through many narrow streets at all, there will be only stress, not rest. You can also walk around Sultanahmet if you like walking and build routes correctly. You can always take a taxi, you don't have to take buses.

How about an expensive taxi?

What do you compare with? Cheaper than in Spain and France. Approximately as in Russia the prices.

And what service to use for a call? I haven’t been to the first two countries, but I’ve heard a lot about the cost of a taxi in Paris. I have been to Moscow more than once.

Uber used, but now it is banned, it seems. Search Google Play, some BiTaxi gave me a request for a taxi application in Istanbul.

In the Sultan Ahmet area, a car is definitely not needed.

From a position of 30-35 years, of course, a car is not needed in Sultanahmet. But the devil knows what age is there and what physical capabilities the author of the question and her husband have ...

From the standpoint of my age of 45 and my husband of 49, a car is also not needed, given that we conquered Adam's Peak in Sri Lanka a year ago. We can walk 20,000-30,000 steps a day.

If you want to see Istanbul live, drive along a five-level interchange, merge into one with reckless Turkish drivers, find out what a real "traffic jam" is and much more - be sure to take a car for a day. Get directions, you must have a navigator (bring your own). Sultanahmet, Fatih, Laleli and others will not go anywhere, Just ride without leaving the car for a long time in the parking lots. Somehow I left it in the area of ​​the Galata Tower, barely finding a place to park, then for three hours I was looking for a car, and I had to drive it all the way to Antalya, moreover, my car was a little jittery. Good luck !
