We wish to travel from Istanbul to the Black Sea by ferry. Is Sinope worth visiting or is there any other better place to visit in the Black Sea with one day? What is the price and where does the ferry leave from Istanbul?

Hi everyone!!! I travel to Istanbul often!!! Best flights are at low season-October-March!!! The old city (European side) is where most of the museums and historical places & you could find nice prices at hotels!! (check Sultanahmet hotels when searching online) Taksim is another center close to most atractions in the European side, tourist friendly,many hotels!!! On the European side---top ten places to see: 1.Blue Mosque 2.Topkapi Palace 3.Hagia Sophia 4.Cistern 5.Grand Bazaar 6.Dolmabahce Palace 7. Ortakoy (hang-out on Bosphorus) & Ortakoy Mosque 8.Maidens Tower 9.Rumeli Hisari (One of the top views of Istanbul 10. Tour on Bosphorus (European Coast) by Tour Boats from Ortakoy!!! I hope this helps!!! Have a great trip!!!!
