Travelers' Guide from a fellow Turk: 1) In cities with verified water sources(lakes and mountains) there are drinkable tap waters available in most locations you may find, i would recommend drinking bottled water in city centers tho. 2) You can tell people that you're already full if you don't want to eat what they are offering. If you are visiting someone's house though you shouldn't directly refuse the food they are offering cuz they'll get sad. 3) Don't mess around and stay safe; Turkish people often get at least middle school level english education and will understand partially what you're trying to say. They won't want to communicate with you only if speaking is hard for their education level so don't be fooled and speak/act carefully and respectfully around people. We are estimated to have the most stressed and angry population out of the entire Europe so you may guess what happens otherwise. 4) Don't take the taxi cuz they like to scam tourists and even worse. Why? Cuz they are simply assholes. 5)Do your shopping carefully and travel with locals if you wanna buy stuff in local areas. They will know if something isn't right. 6)Don't be afraid of soldiers and policemen, they are in your side against terrorism, theft and everything else. If you break a rule/law by accident you can explain yourself and get out of the trouble stressing that you just don't know how stuff works here respectfully. 6) Wait till the light is green whenever you are crossing the road and never cross the road without attention where there are no lights because Turkish drivers aren't the most distinguished and respectful ones. 7) Never get involved in a road rage bc you'll get smoked. 8) Never get into a fight in Blacksea region. You'll get; a) Shot b)Smoked c)Jumped d)Beaten e)All above 9) Stay clear of the rural areas and ghettos and always remember we have 10+ million refugees mostly from war thorn countries. Be careful at night time where it doesn't feel very secure(bc it probably isn't) 10) There is estimated to be over 10mn stray dogs in our country and mistreating one will get you jumped. Most of these animals are well fed chill but some of them might consider attacking you. You have every right to defend yourself in that scenario so if an unsupervised dog attacks you; - Grab something - Don't swing that thing carelessly and lose it bc that would be dumb - You ain't outrunning a dog - Stand your ground, make eye contact and fight back - Pray to whatever deity you beleive in - Make yourself appear strong and predetor-like so the dog might want to reconsider tasting your meat 🥩 - Shout for help but don't sound too scared (it encourages whatever animal may attacking you) - Slowly retreat to safety eighter inside a building or you may even consider climbing a tree if you have time - Go see a doctor if you survive - Travel with life insurance and write your will before tryna fight off a Kangal dog( 700lbs bite force, 56kmh speed)

@@h4m2_ i misread that completely. Marmaris is a city built around tourism. There are hundereds of ancient Ionic buildings, kings' tombs litterally carved into hills, Doric sepulchres etc. It has one of the most beautiful seas you can get. Prices will be kinda high and the temperature will be even higher if you're willing to go at the summertime. Spring in my opinion is the best season to go there when it's not crowded nor burning. Other than tourist scams and flies there will be no problem travelling Marmaris.

Hello, 1-Yep it is allowed to smoke everywhere outside. 2-Actually, you had bad luck while choosing the restaurant. You are right, turkish families love to have diner with children, but there are still places that are not for children. For me, there are places where i can go with my friends, also there are other places i should go with my family. It is up to you. The place you gone was for families with children i guess. 3- DO NOT USE TAXIS in Turkey. We , as a citizen, are also facing problems with them.

Lastly, Turkey is a part of the World. You need to see it. For general recommendations, if you can come the normal places like not popular. No one can touch you. You seem like a benefit to our country. And small businesses are the main part of our culture. When you go those places, you all are welcome, you are not lied. I remember a number of memories that the people of Turkey were saving the tourist from any bad situation. If you go the most populer streets like Istiklal, you will be welcome by the people see you like a gold 😂

DON'T EVER DO NUMBER 9!!! listen i worked at a liquior store at a touristic place when i was young and all tourists tried to bargain over liquior prices because they read that guides online that says "bargain before shopping". But in Turkey at lots of places has fixed prices and you can't cut prices because you are just working there! you do not own the shop. Lots of tourists tried to buy luqiors cheap from me and it was exhausting!.
@OlgaProGoingPlaces
@OlgaProGoingPlaces Жыл бұрын
Sorry you had so much trouble with tourists! These days it’s probably even worse because of inflation and the prices always changing. In a foreign country it’s hard to know what’s what quickly :) But in small shops it can happen that the owner also works in the store and can actually offer a lower price. Although I personally wouldn’t bargain at the liquor store or a grocery. And basically everywhere where the price is on display for every item it’s usually a fixed price.

One small note regarding a subtlety of English: We would say that the Turkish flag is "hung" in many places. "Hanged" is used to talk about people put to death by hanging - much different!

Hello, I am Turkish and I would like to share my views on some parts of the video. 2:16 Refusing the offer of food in Turkey, leaving that food on the plate, etc. it's considered disrespectful because we think you don't like that food :) 5:16 You can't do this in metropolises, but there are places where you can do it in small cities, especially in villages. For example, although it is in the same district, you can easily drink water from the tap in some villages of Lüleburgaz, while in the center you can't. but you can still make tea with this water or use it in your meals. I'm Turkish, I've been drinking tea made in this way since I was little, I haven't had any problems with it. Just don't drink directly. 6:20 Turks are perhaps the most nationalistic and patriotic nation. If you disrespect national values even if you criticize you might be beaten.

I have watched several of your videos and other You Tubers, did not have an idea how big Antalya is. We rented Airbnb thinking it will be close to City Center but it was in Belek and 45 min from City Center which was a big mistake. We are glad we rented a car. Turkey drivers are crazy, I actually saw a fight right in front of us while we were at stop light but I was amazed that some people got out of their cars to break the fight. We did not have a problem with taxi drivers from airport to hotel and back. It only cost us $25 one way with the meter but we gave them 100 TL for tip. We loved Capadoccia and Kas the most. Istanbul was packed with tourists and traffic was really bad. Lines to Mosque and the Top Kami was so long. I could not get a ticket to the train because it was hard to understand and someone said you need to have a card for the machine. We did not have a chance to go to Galata tower. We enjoyed staying at Sultanahmet as everything is walking distance.

For Taksi, you can use "BiTaksi" Rejecting food is totally ok. Do not let yourself over-eat. Give an excuse. Say you ate too much earlier.

Thanks Olga, Good report and much Appreciated! I know you've mentioned poor sound proofing in apartments, and I was wondering if that is what to always expect, or or if it's possible to find an affordable place to rent that is quiet?

I haven’t stayed in an apartment/hotel here where I couldn’t hear next door neighbours or the street noise, depending on who’s louder 😅 But overall it’s not too big of a problem.

I lived in Istanbul for 9 years and would advise you to choose the top floor of a building, if possible. As Olga said, there is no soundproofing in Turkish buildings, so if you are above your neighbours, at least that helps a bit!

@@karenmena9720 Thanks, any input is appreciated. I looked at Blisstambul hotel in Sisli, and it looks like it might be a pretty well constructed building, and I wonder is it's better sound isolated than inexpensive apartments. A bit of noise expected nose I can accept, just not places like I've lived in hat are so noisy you never have a moment of peace.

What to avoid in Istanbul: 1- never take taxi from the street, you will pay even 10 times more!!! Always use ap Bi Taksi - you will pay according to taxmeter , you know you driver , always you can make complaint. 2- avoid fake watches, every seller has same crap from same Chinese factory. They might look good but mechanisms as crap . Seller give you warranty but you have to back to Turkey to fix watch. Is it worth it? 3- avoid Grand Baazar, totally overpriced, in shops around grand baazar you can get much better deals 4- before go to restaurant ask for menu with prices, otherwise you might get very high bill
