Do not be afraid. You can ride quite calmly in splendid isolation. Personally, this is how I drive the last 2 years, and nothing. This year, I planned to meet at the hotel with my MCH, but he also did not manage to come. I was upset, of course, but still had a great rest for 2 weeks, and was very pleased. Well, they pester, of course, not without it, but if you yourself don’t want anything, then no one will touch you.

I remembered a recent question about "pulling out hair" :)))) for blondes in Turkey. Tip: listen less to all sorts of horror stories about Turkish men :) Everything depends entirely on your behavior, no one will rape you there, because there are enough of our compatriots at any time of the year who do not mind experiencing these adventures for themselves, in fact this is what they go for. :)

The worst thing is that here, in Russia, in other countries it is much calmer.

And I remember how recently they said on the news that a girl flew to Turkey alone and they didn’t let her in, suspecting her of prostitution. Of course, this is an isolated case, but you need to be on the lookout. In any case, good luck and have a good rest !!!!!!!!

it's all up to you Tinky. It can drag you into a whirlpool of acquaintances. Turks are also very different. This is the fifth or sixth time I have gone on vacation alone, a cool Russian company is gathering. I saw several times how a young Russian hung her ears, and then what happened to her there - I'm not interested. If the wind blows in the head, for God's sake. Full speed ahead.

Do not worry about the fact that it is dangerous to ride alone - these are all myths. It is more dangerous to walk around Moscow alone than in Turkey. In any case, I think the company will pick up without problems, there are sooo many Russians!

At night, the animators took us to the disco in the city and took us away. You dance a little away from them, runs after me, grabs my hand and puts it beside him. They themselves were Turks. Not in vain, probably. During the day, I think it's safe. And I advise you to get to know the company at the hotel and, if you go to the city in the evening, only with them.

I had the same situation last year. The guy couldn't go. I was also very worried. This year I want to go alone. Rested - great. Turks are such kind, sympathetic people! I specifically went for a walk alone in the city. It was in October, and at that time they have a big holiday, like our Easter. So I brought full bags of candy to the room. In the shops they will treat me with tea, I even, for advertising purposes, drew a tattoo for free. They love children, too, they don’t leave them without gifts. It all depends on how you feel about them. If they are kind to them, then they will answer the same. Good luck.

I traveled alone this year. Had a great rest. If you are afraid to go, then throw on the websites of travel agencies that you are looking for a fellow traveler ... and leave ICQ or email. due to the fact that my MCH could not go with me. As a result, I met a great girl. At that time, she was still only going to go to Turkey, and as a result, she chose the same hotel as me and on the same dates. The only thing is that we flew in with a difference of 4 hours and flew out the same way. We had a great rest. At the same time, if you go alone, then there are more excursions, there are always interesting people there. And about the fact that it is dangerous to go alone. That is nonsense. If you have a head on your shoulders, then the rest will be great. As for the fact that the Turks pester, then if you tell them that you have a husband in a hotel, then they begin to be treated with such respect. I was shocked. Although they often mistook me for an Italian, a Brazilian, or a Turkish woman in general :)

Behave and dress calmly, not provocatively, and everything will be ok. Naturally, do not look for adventures in your 90s - but here the command is almost the same as in your hometown (do not flirt with strangers, do not give hopes, do not go into hot places and nooks and crannies).

Agree with previous answers:
_your well-being depends only on you and the adequacy of your behavior
_if in your home country in everyday life your behavior does not provoke men to grab your hands and make obscene proposals :)) - this will not happen in Turkey either
_the Turks are definitely friendly, positive people - especially in the resort area, if you don’t plan to visit haunting places alone at night, behave provocatively or dress up, then it will be quite difficult to find adventure on your head :)) Even in a hotel!! believe me - nothing will happen without your desire, I judge by 5 *** hotels - the administration takes their reputation seriously and the hotel security guards all nooks and crannies, especially in the evening)))

On the territory of the hotel nothing can happen to you, all the people, the animators are friendly!
In the markets, be careful better to be accompanied by a man! And DO NOT forget to bargain!

Many thanks to everyone who responded! Just recently arrived from sunny Turkey. Everything is just great! More afraid. In fact, in truth, it is more dangerous for us to walk along the street. I don't regret going alone. I met a big company from Moscow. In general came off to the fullest! )))
