I wanted to set foot on the European and Asian side of Istanbul during a recent visit with my kids.
A $1 commuter ferry was the cheapest option for us to go from the European side to the Asian side.
The ride was only 20 minutes each way, and I was surprised not to see more tourists on the ferry.
Plus, although they technically go through Asia, none of the cruises I found let passengers disembark in Asia.
Instead of sitting inside, we made our way to the second level of the ferry and took seats on the rooftop deck.
