Frequently Ask Questions About

Travel to Turkey - by Turkish tour guide

Author: Gokhan Ozbal

 

Hello ("Merhaba"). I'm a Turkish born and live in Istanbul, Turkey. For a long time I traveling in Turkey like a tourist. Because I love Turkey and here you can find a lots of things to do and to see. Especially in Anatolia (Cappadocia), coast of Eagean Sea and coast of Mediterranean Sea. I worked as a tour guide in Antalya (Kemer, Alanya, Olympos, etc.) and Mugla (Marmaris, Fethiye, Oludeniz, etc.) for a while.There is lots of things to say about traveling in Turkey. Thats why I've put up a website called travelturkey2006.com. You can see most popular Turkey destinations and interactive photo gallery with Turkish music in it. In this article I want to share with you frequently ask questions by tourists and my answers to them shortly.

- Why should I travel to Turkey?
Turkey is one of the top visited travel destinations all around the world, especially in Europe. Welcoming more than 18 million visitors every year. It's beautiful, culturally rich and friendly. Good hospitality, good value for money. It's modern enough to be comfortable. Traditional and historical enough to be interesting...

- When is the best time to go?
1. Spring is best time (April, May, June). Because the weather is moderate, the days are long and the tourist crowd isn't begin. April can be rainy.

2. Second one is autumn (September, October, November). Mostly mild weather, but the days are shorter than spring. Rain may begin in October.

3. Summer is quite hot (July, August). Usually rainless, cool inland in the evenings.

4. November through March (winter) weather is mostly rainy and then snowy except the south. Prices are lower, tourists are fewer than the other seasons.

- I don't speak Turkish. How will I communicate?
In tourist areas, almost every tourism personnel know English. Mostly you can find tour operator and guide speaks in your language. You could find and buy electronic translator (Turkish Language Teacher) if you need...

- What is the costs? Can I afford it?
In Europe, Turkey is among the cheaper countries but offers better value for money. In July and August travel costs are highest at Turkish beach resorts and some big cities like Istanbul. Lowest in the small towns of eastern Turkey, and off-season (November through March) For per-person, per day - two people traveling together (sharing one room etc.) - transportations three meals (If you are traveling alone, expect 25-35% more)
