Istanbul audio guide, 29 sites
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Walk Istanbul with a storyteller in your ear. 29 landmarks, three languages, one pass. Enter your access code and start listening at Hagia Sophia.
Istanbul is not a city you look at. It is a city you listen to.
Rivayet is an audio guide for 29 of Istanbul's most remarkable places, written and narrated to be heard on site, standing exactly where the story happened. No tour group, no schedule, no rushing. You walk, you pause, you listen.

THREE LANGUAGES
Every guide is available in Turkish and English, and most in Persian. Choose your language and switch whenever you like.
WRITTEN TO BE WORTH YOUR TIME
These are not encyclopedia entries read aloud. Each guide is built around the details that make a place make sense: who built it and why, what it was used for, what changed, and what to look for before you walk out. Bring headphones and give a monument twenty minutes. It changes what you see.
HOW ACCESS WORKS
Rivayet is unlocked with an access code. If your hotel, tour operator, or guide gave you a code, open the app, enter it, and every place above is yours.
MADE FOR WALKING
Simple player, clear chapters, and a layout that works with one hand while the other one holds a coffee. Start anywhere in the city, in any order, at your own pace.
Istanbul has been telling this story for sixteen centuries. Put your headphones on.
