Travel Tips
In spring (April-May) and fall (October-November) you may encounter rain and the air may be chilly at night but comfortable during the day; bring a warm jacket or a sweater and windbreaker. In summer (June-
September) wear cool cotton clothing, a hat and sunblock, but have a light sweater for cool evenings.
In winter (December-March) you may need warm woolen clothing and rain gear, even though many days will be sunny. In general, weather is warmer along the seacoasts and in the south and cooler at higher elevations.
A passport and visa are required for entry into Turkey and must be valid for at least 6 months after your return date. Visas may be obtained upon arrival in Turkey for $20.00 in exact change. Proof of sufficient
funds and onward passage may be needed as well.
In general, no immunizations are required for visiting Turkey. Cholera and yellow fever vaccinations are required if arriving from an infected area.
Contact health authorities for the latest information.
Turkish is the official language of the country. English is widely spoken, especially in larger cities and resort areas.
Casual, comfortable clothing is ideal for touring. Outside of the major cities and resort areas it is wise to dress modestly (avoid short shorts, revealing tops etc.).
For visits of mosques, men and women should have arms and legs covered and women should cover their heads.
The local currency is the Turkish Lira (TL). One TL = 100 Kurus. Credit cards are widely accepted as are U.S. dollars.
The electric current is 220 volts AC 50 HZ. The wall plugs are the round, two pronged European type.
