Is Istanbul worth going to for a night by yourself? Quite worried about safety. Is winter a good time?
IMHO Istanbul is definitely worth a visit as a tourist (a quick google will help you) and pretty safe overall.

Winter can be wet and cool if you're unlucky, but is generally warmer and drier than the UK.
