When is the best time to go to Turkey?
I would like to know when is the best time to go to Turkey (I think in September) ... and where, which hotel. Discos, nightclubs are not needed. I would like a relaxing holiday and bargain shopping (clothes, shoes) ... I go alone ... and I'm going abroad for the first time. no English. I don’t know Turkish. Is it better through a travel agency or on my own? And how much money will you need approximately?

In September, it will be good almost everywhere: in Kemer there are mountains, pine trees, a pebble beach, in Belek (a more expensive option) and Side there is a sandy beach, in Alanya a sand and pebble beach, prices are moderate. For the first trip, it is better, often cheaper, to go through TA, because. during the season, charters are sold out by TA long ago and in whole blocks, and regular flights are more expensive. Having paid for the tour, you will be met at the airport, taken to the hotel, assisted with resettlement. Don't worry about not knowing foreign languages, the Turks in the tourist zone are fluent in Russian.

If you go to the coast, then you will not have purchases from the heart, because. resort areas suggest very inflated prices for everything. If you need shopping from the heart, combined with an inspection of ancient monuments, then you are on the way to Istanbul. I myself traveled alone for the first time in 2012 and freely managed without knowing the language. But my advice: it will be better, more reliable and more fun if you find yourself a partner. Try to find it on the Internet, if there is none at your place of residence.

For the first time and without languages - definitely through a travel agency.
For bargains - to Istanbul, but these are not the resorts where tourists should go to the sea on a package tour.
In the resort area of the Mediterranean coast, you can buy souvenirs or anything else, but don't count on significant benefits.
In September it is still hot everywhere, you can safely go to any resort. In October - Kemer or Alanya.
July-August - very hot, more comfortable temperature in Fethiye, Marmaris, Sirigerme, Oludeniz.
May-June - it can be different, the air temperature will be high everywhere, the sea can not warm up well everywhere.

Were last year in Marmaris (late September - early October). The weather is excellent + 33-35, the sea - too, swam until 6 pm. In stores at this time, discounts up to 60%, a friend bought things, shoes and testicles for another 1 suitcase, once a week the market, everything is much cheaper, but you need to bargain, they can really throw off half the price. If you want a relaxing holiday, it’s better to choose a hotel in Icmeler (there are better beaches than in Marmaris itself. A dolmush (minibus) goes to Marmaris - I don’t remember the fare, in my opinion it’s either 1.5 or 2.5 lira

In Alanya, in the village. Avsalar - hotel Yasmine Beach Resort 4 stars The food is excellent, the service too. Green territory, 20 m from the sea. Large shopping center - 20 minutes walk. You can go in September-October. We were from 2 to 10 October. The weather is warm, the sea is too. Have a wonderful holiday!

It’s not dangerous to go to Europe alone even at the age of 19, but I don’t know about Turkey.

What could be dangerous there? Turkey is quite a civilized country. Attempts to meet local machos stop politely, but firmly, unless of course such acquaintances are not included in your plans. As for the rest, it will be more dangerous to go to Moscow.

Civilized, but there is no need to lose vigilance, as elsewhere. In Europe, by the way, there are also enough trash and scammers who can cause trouble for a young girl.
Irochka, according to reviews, choose a family hotel, not a party one, try to find a company there to go on excursions or go for a walk in the city, do not hang around in the evenings alone outside the hotel. And, most importantly, do not be fooled by a variety of "wiring" - from "I love you, let's go to a disco" to "come to a restaurant, cheap lobster." Individual trips to "factories" for leather, gold and textiles are also a scam.

I agree with you Pachok. Only after all, the listed security measures are quite relevant both in our homeland, and in your hometown you can successfully find your ... adventures, if you are not friends with your head. I just want to say that a trip to Turkey does not require any extraordinary measures security, everything is like everywhere else - do not get fooled by dubious offers, do not hang out in dubious places.

Better cash and a small reserve on the card. You don't need to convert anything on the card.

before buying a tour from the operator, check if there is a safe in the hotel room. (usually there is, but anything can happen). if there is - better in cash and money and documents - in a safe. Well, the reserve "in case of emergency" can be on the card.

Dear girl. For the first time, I advise you to take a ticket at a travel agency and go to Marmaris or Bodrum. There rest is better than in Antalya. The hotel will be selected for you by the agency at the price you name. You can risk going alone to Turkey if you are a bit of an adventurer with life experience, which you, alas, do not have.

your question is too vague, a detailed answer will pull on a good article about Turkey. in order for the advice to become specific, you need to voice your capabilities (in the sense of the money that you are willing to spend on vacation) and your priorities:
- like sand on the beach, or pebbles
Do you speak any European languages?
you just want to go to the beach, or a party is desirable
Well, there's a lot more you can think of.
