Icmeler Online Holiday Forum & Reviews - Turkey

We usually do the travellers cheques thing but havent been to Turkey before. Some tips would be great please

You can bring out your travellers cheques and get them changed in the resort at no comission.

Try Arslan Market (corner shop) next to the Old Famous Kitchen as he is known to give the best rates around and not charging any comission either.

Have nice holiday!

I normally just take English money with me and change some over there to pay for meals. When you are buying bags, jewellery etc you can pay with English money, Euros or Turlish Lira the Turks dont care what you pay them with and nornally they give you your change in the same currency you paid with which always amuses me.

I used Arslan Market to change money our first week, then noticed our hotel was giving a better rate sometimes it pays to keep an eye open and look around most supermarkets have a sign up showing their exchange rates.


Enjoy your holiday

p.s. Living in Edinburgh its sometimes harder to get English money thann Turkish Lira

thank you both very much
