Best Travel Guide

Most visitors need an e-Visa to enter Turkey. You can easily apply online through the official e-Visa website. The process is quick, and you usually receive your visa within 24 hours. However, requirements vary by nationality, so check the official Turkish government website for specific details about your country.

Turkey is generally safe for tourists, especially in popular destinations. Like any country, use common sense precautions: watch your belongings, be aware of your surroundings, and respect local customs. Tourist areas have increased security, and locals are known for their hospitality.

Turkey has four distinct seasons, and each one offers something special. But if you're after the perfect blend of mild temperatures and fewer crowds, April–May (spring) and September–October (fall) are ideal. This is when you can explore ancient ruins or shop bustling bazaars without the scorching summer heat—or the chilly winter breezes. Spring (Apr–May): Perfect for city walks, blooming tulips, and enjoying the coastal areas without peak-season bustle. Summer (Jun–Aug): Great if you love hot, sunny beach days—just be prepared for crowds and higher prices. Fall (Sep–Oct): Mild weather, vibrant foliage, and quieter tourist spots. Winter (Nov–Mar): Snowy landscapes in Cappadocia and fewer tourists at iconic spots like Ephesus.
