Strategy: mix one paid highlight (tower balcony) with free viewpoints and cheap eats for a balanced day.
Free Views
- Karaköy waterfront.
- Nearby alleys with symmetrical tower frames.
- Hill viewpoints and stair landings.
Cheap Eats
- Simit + tea combos.
- Local dessert shops.
- Street food skewers (where appropriate).
Sample Budget Route (Under 3 hours)
- Free viewpoint at waterfront.
- Street dessert + tea.
- Paid balcony (timed entry).

Cost hack: keep meals light till after the balcony — more time, less spend.
