12 Culture Shocks Tourists Have When in Türkiye!

I will be in Istanbul this summer, coming from Canada, and watching your vids helps a lot. Thank you!
Just the squat toilet, though cause I've lived in Taiwan, and in mainland China, and the Philippines as well, (I don't know about any other Asian countries.) and I can say many (if not majority of) households use squat toilets.

Many many thanking you to described about your countries.I think Turkeyis natural environment is well.

It’s lovely and very nice culture of helping animals,it’s sad I can’t find this culture in my country.

10 minutes taxi drive and they're dying for a smoke 😂. And those taxi guys cheat so much. Love Istanbul ❤

Loving your videos! Saludos desde Arizona.

thank you for explaining to us about the founder of turkey it was great to know about him.

Bery you are an excellent ambassador for Turkyie tourism.

In my country both of them 🇵🇰

The most choking thing I had in Istanbul is that’s so many scammers and the food is not that’s good 😌

Make a law to fine people whi are non atop breeding more animals. Thx for feeding them but they need homes

Hi, pretty! I am planning to go to Istanbul next month, yet I am worried about the tension between the Turkish and Israeli governments. Is it safe to do travel now?

@BeryIstanbulTips Could you please make a video on renting an apartment , studio and sharing rooms. How to rent? what is the rent? This is needed for those who is coming istanbul for work. please please.

👍🏼

Last year was the first time I saw in a dizi (yargı) the city of İstanbul come to a standstill and I was honestly so moved by that.😢🙏🏾 I hope if you and your husband find yourselves filming that morning, if you could film the "ambience" of the moment from a local's perspective (respectively).. it would be so cool to see (again, respectfully). A bit behind on my Watchlists, but I loved this video!❤❤

Heloo is it safe to visit turkey currently ? Is there any conflict going out there?

Hi Beryl, I’m planning a visit to Istanbul in the first week of Nov 2023. Is it safe to travel to Istanbul right now given the current crisis in the Middle East? Any advice will be most welcome.

Querida Bery, he visto tu maravilloso vídeo. Sólo lamento una cosa, que te veas como una invitada aquí. Ahora eres nuestra hija, no una invitada, no acepto la palabra invitada.

Wow i would like to be in the Country on Nov 10th to experience this.

I used to think that Turkey was a Middle Eastern country 🙃 As far as I can understand, Turks are more of a mixture of Balkans, Europeans, Caucasians and Asians, while Kurds are the Middle Easterners of the country. Turkish people are an extremely warm-blooded and helpful nation. If you trip and fall while walking on the street, many people will run to help you. Unlike us, the "we" culture, not the "me" culture, is extremely strong. I love Turkey and Turks. My only dream is to move to Turkey when I retire.

My friend and I went to Istanbul a year ago; the only thing that "shocked" us was "how rude Turkish people are", but we intend to go against; we still liked it.

Bery you are shinning star, always gives very good information. Thanks

Thank you for the video, Bery❤

Been living here for 2 months and love it. I drink ayran to start and chai after eating. The way they cook their chicken is amazing, as well as lamb, though I’m not a fan of every lamb (it doesn’t have that taste if it is a male baby lamb).

Overall the country is beautiful and the people are very friendly. I’m looking forward to next few years working here.

On the toilets I prefer the bidet toilet that allows you to stay clean; wish other countries used this.

Türkçe alt yazı neden yok acaba😊

I will experience that 10-Nov.. because i will be there in that days.. thanks for the info! ☺️ your vlog is really helpful..

I don't know how Turks can drink boiling hot tea in Summer..

Great video.

Merhaba Bery, Ülkemizin tanıtımına yapmış olduğun katkıdan dolayı çok teşekkürler. Bir sonraki video'da görüşmek üzere.

Tea culture is very nice! I agree with you about public toilets!!!Anyway Turkey is a wonderful country, very colourful with amazing sceneries and if the local population take care about stray dogs, they would not be a problem for us.Thank you very much for al this info, very helpful indeed.

Ive seen squat toilets even in a Bistrot in Paris😮

I totally agree with the Asian style toilet! Took me about a week to get used to it during my 2 month visit to Istanbul this summer. The ferries were amazing. I rode one almost every day. Menemen for breakfast, then walk down the hill in Kadiköy and take a ferry to the Princes' Islands, or Eminönü or even the six hour 65 TL tour that goes almost to the Black Sea. Next time I'll visit other cities than just Istanbul :) Thanks for the video!

Being uncomfortable around dogs, should I be concerned about interactions with them if I just ignore them?

Bery travel is it to buy a plain gold necklace is Istanbul...Any recommendation?
Something to wear with a pendant
Thanks

Thank you for this and all your videos on Turkey! I got engaged there this past February in Instanbul. We stayed at The Golden City Hotel. We loved everything about Istanbul. I was also on my way to UB Mongolia this past July and had an opportunity to visit the city again! Your video's are very informative and enjoyable. Keep up the good work!

I will be in Istanbul on 10th November. Thanks a lot Bery.

What an interesting video! Il be in istanbul on the 10th of Nov for my birthday, had I not watched this video, I was going to be confused to what's going on when the sirens go off. I love your content❤

Loved all the masajids in Turkiye. Haven't prayed in so many in such a short time.
What shocked me was the lack of milk, plenty of cheese, but weirdly hard to find milk.

The Cay is delicious

Hi Berry, my wife and I would like to purchase genuine leather products while we are in Istanbul. We are interested in buying purses/ hand bags, bag packs, wallets and etc. thanks. Oscar

I love Turkish cuisine but I have to confess that I didn't like the texture of the chicken breast dessert 😅. Another interesting thing for me is that they use a lot of wet wipes to clean their hands in the restaurants.

Sushmita: very interesting facts about the diversity of Turkiye. Returned recently from a 12 day tour which was magic, unforgettable and truly amazing ❤ All my questions have been answered Bery and thank you so much 🙏 ❤
