In China. Straight from the airport some drivers will approach and wont go away keep follow you. Just make sure they would leave you. And find a legit taxi egere drivers are waiting in the car or book a airport drop off service

I was in turkey 2 times and each time was very awful due to scammers(taxists, sellers). The worst country in the world for tourist.

You never should show up to a foreign city without researching it first. These scams are in every major city. You're totally naive. You might want to stick around Vancouver.

I find it strange that you could not find a single positive thing to say about Istanbul with all of its clean streets, beautiful art galleries, museums, connectivity, and easy transportation, but with Egypt, despite Cairo clearly falling behind Istanbul in so many ways, starting with the vegetation, the weather, and the food, you are only showing the positives. Remember the fraudulent activity that bothered you in Istanbul. Cario is just as awful, but you don't discuss it here. Hmm, fascinating. Are you Egyptian? Is this what it is?

I mentioned it a lot, go back to the turkey video, and count how many times i said the word beautiful. In Egypt, people ask you for tips upfront, and it's a couple of cents or dollars. You don't really feel it. In istanbul, it starts at larger numbers, and the person asking you intimidates you. I didn't feel safe in Taksim Square, but I was fine in Cairo. I only felt intimidated at the pyramids area. I visited it again this year, and the taxi driver wanted to charge me 20 bucks for the ride, but suddenly, he started adding toll money to the price. I was going to pay him 35 bucks anyway, so I confronted him. The guy apologized and gave me his number to give me a free trip. He was so embarrassed that he refused to take money for the ride by the end of it. But it was again 2 dollars extra that he wanted to charge. I paid him 35 bucks anyway. I'm not a cheap person. Gratuity is part of the Canadian culture, and I understand in Egypt, income is not the greatest. In Istanbul, on the other hand, a ride like that for 50 minutes or so will start at $65. And the driver will try to get a $100, but those are not the prices, because you can rent a car for a cheaper price than the ride. Everyone might have a different experience at the end. I'm just sharing mine. You probably could go there, act smarter, and not get gouged in either county. I'm just making the videos in a storyline for people to know how to avoid bad situations and have a good time. Egypt is simple, stay in a residential area where expads live with Egyptians and visit the touristy areas. Istanbul may be the same, but it wasn't for me. I'll try another city in the future and tell you my experience. Turkey is gorgeous if you know how to do it. I just didn't know. I assumed it's like Canada and didn't do my research.

Actually public transportation in İstanbul is pretty good. Do not spend your time and money for taxi. Just take a tram or metro. Or just use Martı App for electric scooters. But still if you want to take a taxi you may use apps like Bitaksi or Uber. Don’t let some scammer taxi drivers to ruin your vacation.

technically the acropolis has been built on for 3500 years, since mycenean athens, but the acropolis that stands today is around 2550 years old, since classical era athens, and the golden age of pericles, which was when all the buildings that stand on the acropolis Today were built.

The prices of everything have increased. Since that was a good and big breakfast with a view of the Bosphorus, I'd say 650TL is the normal price, and can even be considered reasonable (£16 or so). I am sure it used to be half the price, in pounds or dollars too, but as they say, that was then and this is now.

No, they actually had decided beforehand the vote through diplomacy what they were going to vote. The raising of hands was to ensure party discipline and avoid unpleasant surprises, like people voting according to their conscience, not the wish of their party leader. Its bewildering how simple minded most young Greeks still are. I guess thats the reason they ride them so hard in Greece right now.

I was a single female traveller to Turkey. A guy came up to me in Taksim square, invited me to his carpet shop , gave me tea and coffee when I got there then tried selling me a carpet. I bought a cheapish one. Afterwards he invited me to smoke hookah with him and his friends...anyway around 9pm I tried getting a taxi. Had the same problem with the taxi couldn't get one...the guy took me back to my hotel on his motorbike then said goodnight and drove off. Damn I kinda get a shiver down my spine when I think how brave I was back then 😅

As a Turk, taxi drivers have been on our agenda for about a year or two (maybe longer). This is happening because of our government's senseless hatred of uber and shared taxis. They do the same tricks not only to you but also to a Turkish tourist going to Istanbul because tourists don't know the way. People trying to sell things around will not harm you. It is best to ignore them and walk past them. Istanbul is a great city but it has been ruined by the influx of immigration and refugees from the east of our country.

Not gona lie bro. This was one big moan fest from you. You sounded like a nagging woman. You say water was 5 lira and a meal was 2000% more thats because you bought a water at a local shop and not at the restuarant you bought the meal. Breakfast was the correct price, have you no idea about the volocity of the currency. God i could go on. You are 100% not an experienced traveller at all. You got a lot of fixing up of your personality to do😂😂😂
