We start to work with our guides and head guides from the beginning of the year and train them about any information you might need during İstanbul. We also share the contact information and transportation details with them as the Sports Fest comes closer.

They will be ready to pick you up from airport, holding a sign with your university's name on it.

Bogaziçi University has a medical center in the south campus which is appropriate for emergency issues. We will also be providing you an ambulance in case a big injury happens.

     The costs in other hospitals than Boğaziçi University medical center are paid by the participant himself/herself.  Therefore we advice our participants to make a travel and health assurance to avoid costs of hospitals in case of a serious injury.

    You should bring basic personal care products such as shampoo, toothpaste, etc. Towel and slippers will be really useful too. Although it is not necessary, we would also recommend bringing a sleeping bag since the Gym can be a little cold at night.
