To get around Istanbul, the tram, metro and buses are affordable and convenient options.

Cappadocia is another popular destination in Turkey, known for its stunning rock formations, rock churches and picturesque valleys. One of the most popular activities in this region is a hot air balloon ride, offering a breathtaking view of Cappadocia's unique landscapes. Transportation options to Cappadocia include domestic flights, buses or car rental.

Antalya is a popular seaside town on Turkey's southern coast, offering beautiful beaches, historical sites such as the ancient theatre of Aspendos and the picturesque old town of Kaleici.

Turkey: When is the best time to travel?

The best time to visit Turkey depends largely on your personal preferences and the activities you wish to undertake. If you're looking to explore Turkey's historic sites, including Istanbul, Ephesus or Cappadocia, spring and autumn are the best seasons. The weather is mild, with average temperatures ranging from 15 to 25 degrees Celsius. You'll also avoid the summer tourist crowds.

In summer, Turkey offers warm, sunny weather, which is ideal if you want to relax on the beaches of the Aegean or Mediterranean coast and enjoy the sea. Temperatures can reach up to 40 degrees Celsius in some areas, so it's important to protect yourself and stay hydrated.
