Does anyone have current information about the effects of the floods in Istanbul? Areas most affected? Traveling information? Tourist problems? Thanks so much to our RS community for your input.
The heavy flooding in Istanbul has completely cleared up, and the city is back to its normal routine.
We arrived in Istanbul on October 15 when you wouldn’t even know the city experienced the fatal flood. But two days earlier, a member of our RS tour said the taxi couldn’t even drop her off at the hotel due to flooded streets. We have returned yesterday to spend an extra week in Istanbul after our 13-day tour, and the flood is a distant memory.
