my brother in law and his wife are expecting a baby, he wants to take her to Istanbul turkey because a client of his company offered them all payed for to go over there. they have never been to turkey before so im just concerned because of the war going on over in ukraine and russia, syria, israel and since turkey is near those countries is it safe to travel over there now or should they postpone the traveling?

yes it is safe.Is it safe to travel to istanbul turkey now? Istanbul is a really big city, there are so many things to do and see. If you tip Istanbul as a query here, you get thousand of results with lots of suggestions. To make the most of your trip, read a bit about the city's history. She's definitely safe and taxi is relatively cheap. What to eat: fish, kebab, dolma, desserts.

Turkey is a safe country. Turkish military will defend their country if a threat happen.

As a war, dont worry about that. Non off these countries want a war with Turkey because Turkish military is strong and soldiers are brave. Istanbul is a big city. Dont know where are you from but think your country as a Turkey and istanbul is the biggest city. Have fun and be careful

Istanbul is pretty safe.
