Relied on this for my visit
This book has a lot of great information. The overview gave me a great starting point for planning my trip. It’s also packed with details which were extremely helpful in picking specific things. I highly recommend this book if you’re feeling overwhelmed and not sure where to start.

Utile e di facile consultazione
Sono appena tornata da Istanbul e, come sempre, mi sono affidata a questa guida. E' precisa, offre buoni spunti per la visita della città e delle attrazioni.

Good Information but the print is WAY TOO SMALL
This guide is clearly written by and for people under 40. The print is so small I need both my glasses and a separate magifying glass to read. Not exactly compatible with travel. I don't think I will buy any more Lonely Planet guides based on this. The information is good but not accessible if you are an older traveler with older eyes.

Useful, handy and beautiful.
I found it quite well organised and full of useful information, including a large map of Istanbul. Of course, once I can visit the city, I will be able to complete my review, but in principle I liked it quite a lot.
