wanted to say thanks a lot, guys

I'm planning to live in Istanbul, downloaded the guide, saved a bunch of locations and spots for myself. It's not as daunting now, heading to an unfamiliar country/city where I know nothing. I hope there will be a separate account for Turkey as well 🙏🏻
Good day!

It’s a good guide, we visited some places from there, and it went well.

In general, it came in handy, and maybe it will come in handy again. Thank you!)) (but I would like to have more places where you can eat delicious food 😅)
already have saved lots of places
The guide has already come in handy and will be useful again
Thanks to your guide, I had the best view in Batumi. Oh yes, this is love!!

Thanks for the recommendations. That's how I found out how cool it is to fly down over the gorge. Also, thanks for the useful contacts. I studied the guide on the plane and seeing that there are contacts for a doctor made it safer.

And thanks to your guide! It became even more beautiful this time!
The guide is ideal for a first visit to Istanbul and for getting to know it

You have addresses for everything you need in every part of the city, from the most popular places to unique vintage shops and cafes. Another big plus is the life hacks and other useful information you need to know before your visit. Thanks, Pike
I no longer stress out during vacations
It’s perfect for getting to know the city
what can i say, the guide is dope, i’ll be using it every day
