We came back from Turkey last month & spent loads of money, the food & drink prices were on par with the UK. When we went about 7 years ago the prices were a lot cheaper than UK.

[@yigittural9511]

Half of the increase is due to inflation and the other half is opportunism. I am Turkish by the way.

[@inkenhafner7187]

And the opportunism is completely understandable if your wages brings less and less to the table at home. For most tourists cheap prices for food or clothes are "nice to have" and we're talking about a few days. Most of them can afford it easily and paying a bit more and last but not least tipping generously helps the people who have to deal with the problem every day with low wages.

[@songross8649]

I just came back from Istanbul a few weeks ago. While I loved it, it certainly wasn’t cheap for food, unless you went to where the locals were. However, as someone from the US, anywhere else, I was quoted prices that would raise my eyebrow in the states…there was definitely a feeling of being hustled quite a bit. However, outside of Istanbul, I met many many humble and honest people 🥰

[@Tech-Corner2023]

nowadays everywhere is very expensive, even local areas.. even poor areas.. quality and service dropped a lot and prices hiked a lot. A Total dramatic change in Turkey, quite a bit decline. I am from there.. I lived in Europe, came back and couldn't believe how much lower quality of everything costs much higher. So it is not only done to tourists - although more hike would make it worse, it is to everyone.

[@voicesofnature8681]

In Alanya the prices in restaurants doubled to quadrupled compared to last year. For example a big portion of Döner in the shopping mall ALANYUM cost around 6 Euros last year, which was as expensive as a big Döner in Berlin at that time but the portion in Berlin is still double as big as in Alanya and the quality of the Döner there is way better than in any Döner place in Alanya. This year around 5 months ago it was already almost 20 Euros for one big Döner which is absolutely a ripp off price. A few days ago I passed by a Chinese restaurant which served my friends fried Börek for spring rolls a few months ago. I saw the menu outside and they charge for 2 pieces of Sushi 345 to 355 TL!! You would need to order at least 7 of them to fill your stomach, that would sum up to 7 x 345 = 2415 TL (64 Euros) for one person without drinks and tip. In Zurich Switzerland you can get right now 6 pieces of Sushi for 12 Swiss Francs. So for eating out in Alanya, many places now charge more than one of the most expensive cities in the world. My favorite pizza cost 5 Euros last year and this year 15 Euros. Last year the most expensive pizza there was around 7 Euros and this year 15-18 Euros. I have been living in Turkey since 2.5 years and I can tell you that this is not inflation but pure greediness of the people here. Many foreigners who had come to Turkey every year since 20-30 years told me that this year was definitely the last time for them. One woman even said she does not feel ripped off but rather like being robbed. Some people were in Spain and Turkey this year and said that Spain is way cheaper than Turkey and one person said that for the price of 1 week holiday in Turkey this year he could spend 3 weeks holiday in a nice country in Europe instead with much better service than in Turkey. Foreigners with Ikamet do not get the museum card anymore, so they permanently live here, Some have local jobs with a local salary, some live from their savings and can pay touristy prices all year round now. Also water and electricity prices went up for foreigners around 6 times, which is much higher than the prices for the locals, but this applies for foreigners who own a property here but do not have Ikamet (residency). Most foreigners already left Alanya. Everybody wants to sell their homes here and leave as fast as they can.

This is sad to hear, Alanya is such a beautiful city.

When I was in Turkiye in 2022, prices were very low, generally about 25-35% of what they would be in the US. Now, it appears to be more like 50-60%. But that apartment price was amazingly low for a short-term rental.

[@jackoneil3933]

Thank you Olga for the update. Comparing Portland Oregon USA, prices for eating out, compared to what you showed there, comparable meals here would be 2x to 4x higher and roughly 2X to 3X for the same for groceries. As far as hotels, expect to pay at least $150 to on average $200/night for a most basic room that is not overrun with drug or gang activity. Mid-range hotels this summer in popular areas are averaging about $250-400 per night, and luxury room as high as $1500per night. Apartment rentals have gone up about 300% in the last 5 years. A basic studio typically start around $1200month to Two bedroom flats start at about $1800 and average $2000 or more. $1,000/month gets you a bedroom with a shared bath and possibly kitchen. The cheapest room on Facebook was a room in a barn with no running water, or heat, and literally out-house for $500/month (No joke). If my Landlord kicks-me out of my rent-controlled place she could at least double the rent to about $2300/month. I paid $550 6 years ago, If that happens over 100% of my retirement pension would go for rent alone, so at that point I, like Millions of Americans, I would be homeless, and judging from your update Olga, 'Turkey' seems like a possible escape option. The other being going back to S.E. Asia, maybe getting a long-term sea-view condo in Penang and spending time in Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia with border runs. Something many Americans might consider if they only were aware of the option.

[@jackoneil3933]

​@@efeend1 Thank you, can you clarify if you are you referencing the U.S. or Turkey? In the U.S. rent control laws can vary widely depending on state or city. Where I am in the State of Oregon, Rent Increases pegged at state cost of living rates plus few percent. So I've been seeing 7 to 15% annual increases, but if a renter moves out and the landlord does new paint they can raise the rate to what every the market will bare. In my area the market rental rates are 2X to 4X the rent controlled rates, so many Landlords harass and terrorize renters until they move out. Plus, here you need 3X to 5X the monthly rental rate in income to qualify to rent. In that case most people would need $6000 $12,000 per month in Income to rent, and few have that much income, so people are trapped in bad properties, with bad landlords and dangerous neighbors. And now that the U.S. Supreme court has ruled cities and states can criminalize homelessness, many Americans with 2 to 4 times the income of many Europeans begin forces to live as criminals in their vehicles has become a terrifying and hopeless situation. Right now people I know who said they would never leave America are looking for places to escape to.

older man live in Bangkok i spend 600 to 700 US i could spend a lot more. before 1989 i lived in Greece and Turkey TURKEY WAS DIRT CHEAP! I am apoplectic about how much you spend in Turkey. Many younger people are not cost conscious!

[@nggjfh]

I love Turkey. since 2010. I went to Turkey for holiday once a year. until 2022. then have to stop. because inflation is too high. hotel price even higher than Spain.

Hope your doctors can get the inflammation under control soon so that you're fit enough to go on vacation again.

I get so confused about conversions to gbp. the online converters give me very different prices. For 170 try it's £3.72.

[@OlgaProGoingPlaces]

I used XE converter. But this video was published on August 11th, conversion rate is probably already different, as well as prices in TL. So basically converting August prices now won’t make any sense :)

[@MENSA.lady2]

In a word. Inflation. Currently about 70%.

Hi there , I am a commercial Airline Pilot, and I am considering to move to Turkey, what would you say?

Is turkey safe to travel right now?

[@bulentgundogan4752]

Turkiye is usually safer than many countries including some european countries. Because of high inflation just watch for the prices. Stay away from solicitors if there is

[@OlgaProGoingPlaces]

I've never felt in danger in Turkiye

[@brenda4299]

Is there an elevator to your apartment, or just the stairs?

[@OlgaProGoingPlaces]

In this aparthotel we had an elevator. From what I noticed it’s mainly older buildings that don’t have an elevator.

[@MariaWerner-sf1ef]

@@OlgaProGoingPlacesIn Istanbul there are never any elevators, except in big office buildings

[@sezginerdogan9155]

Welcome back to Turkey. It’s my favorite country to visit. Crossroads between Europe and Asia.

[@gocebe0134]

Ülkenin en güzel yerlerinden birinde yaşıyorsun.

[@Trodpint-A]

Yeah well when you have a bunch of foreigners living there agreeing to pay much higher prices what do you expect?

[@OlgaProGoingPlaces]

most of those foreigners are not living there anymore for a couple of years. so you can’t blame the inflation on foreigners. time to see the real reason.

[@mahir9076]

That’s still good to have lunch for $5 here in USA 🇺🇸 for $5 you can buy medium fries lol
