Frequently Asked Questions

The best times of the year to visit Istanbul are from March to June and from September to November, during the fall and spring seasons, since summer is really hot and winter can be quite cold, with snow and heavy rains. Either way, both in summer and in winter the city has its own, particular charms. In winter the landscape is breathtaking, with the mosques and bridges over the Bosphorus covered with snow, where the children play freely and in summer, the streets, terraces and cafes are populated and funny and the city gets a party spirit.

If you are traveling in summer you should wear fresh clothing and sunscreen, feel comfortable and protect yourself from the intense sun. If you travel in winter dress warmly, the landscape can become snow-covered and rainy, but you don’t need to carry an umbrella, is very common to find street sellers of these devices, especially when it’s raining and for a very cheap price. For spring and autumn, you can wear fresh clothing but always carrying a light jacket handy. The climate is very variable. Moreover, to visit the mosques you should be moderately dress and remove you shoes when entering. Women should wear clothes that cover their shoulders and a scarf over their heads, though it’s not necessary to carry them, as they provide it for free at the entrances, to use them in the mosque.
