Turkey, officially the Republic of Turkey, is a transcontinental country straddling Southeastern Europe and Western Asia.
Traveling in Turkey is far less expensive than nearby European countries, but it offers many of the same comforts and luxuries. As the currency continues to strengthen however, you can expect prices to get higher and many of the shockingly good deals will disappear.
April, May, September and October are pleasantly warm, with temperatures of 20°C-30°C, so are typically the best times to visit Turkey's grand array of ancient sites. The summer months (June through to September) are very hot, with temperatures reaching the mid-thirties on the south coast.
Turkish Lira
what is the best currency to take? Always Turkish Lira. There are DOVIS cash exchanges, or the post offices (yellow PTT signs) but forget banks to change money - they may charge you a higher rate of commision. Most jewellers will change to Lira for you.
Free WiFi Everywhere (Almost)
WiFi Internet access, usually free, is common all over Turkey. Virtually all hotels, hostels, dorms, rental apartments, and even tree houses have WiFi.
