Hello,
in lira in lira and only in lira.
Exchange offices in the city center every 50 meters. The euro exchange rate today is 6.30 lira for 1 euro.
In souvenir shops, it’s also better in lira, although they say prices in euros, but they calculate at the rate of about 5.5 liras per euro. Euro coins do not like. As for clothing stores (boutiques), it is better there in euros, since they have a rate of 6.5. But these are expensive clothing stores.
At the airport, euros for lira do not change the exchange rate there at all.

It is usually more profitable to pay in lira. It is better to exchange in exchange offices (in hotels it is unprofitable). We exchanged at the spa hotel at the rate of exchangers. But in some cases it is more profitable to pay in $.

Turks are happy to accept any currency. If you have an International Sberbank card, then it is most convenient not to carry cash with you, but to withdraw it from DenizBank in any amount and in any currency convenient for you, preferably immediately in lira.

Good afternoon. It is better to pay with a Sberbank card. Anyone, but not the Maestro and not the World. Especially advantageous in LC Wikiki, De Facto and similar stores. Withdrawing money from the card is also beneficial if it is a Denis bank ATM. And so, of course, lira is the most profitable.

The dollar is the universal currency! Everything is more expensive in euros. How many we fly, we never used lyres. Perhaps in large supermarkets they pay with lira, but in bazaars and street shops, on any transport, dollars are respected.)

The most favorable rate was at the checkouts of the Migros supermarket (orange letters) .. the guide told us. Much cheaper than exchangers...
You take some small change, give dollars - change is given in lira ...
Migros is the most popular supermarket there.

Turks accept everything. But if you don’t want to overpay, then it’s better to pay in T.L. Currency exchange is not a problem. It is better in the exchanger, having previously learned information about the commission. Most exchangers do not have commissions. In banks, you must present a passport, and the exchange procedure is more red tape. In Migros supermarkets, when paying in dollars, change can be returned in lira ...

In supermarkets, pay calmly with your card. In the bazaar - only lira. Excursions are also better to pay in lira plus a chocolate bar and a sea of charm. Have a nice holiday!

Take some 20 and 10 dollar bills with you. They may be needed to improve the living conditions at the hotel))) and for a small change in lira at the hotel, if necessary. Dollars are still needed when paying for excursions. It’s good to pay with dollars in pharmacies if you want to stock up on high-quality analogues of the necessary drugs. Lira is needed: markets - food and clothes, shops with souvenirs and sweets, shops with fixed prices such as outlet. The right advice has already been sounded, look for Migros, buy any little thing, give a 100 dollar bill. Change in lira will be at the most favorable rate. Have a nice rest!

For some advisers, I will explain that Sberbank sold its Turkish daughter Deniz Bank this year. Therefore, now it’s not a fact that everything is so rosy with their ATMs. Everything was ok last summer, that's a fact.

Take with you to Turkey dollars, both small bills and large ones! Small ones can be left for tea to the staff or guides, and large ones can be better exchanged in exchangers on the street

Dear, in all resorts it is most profitable to buy goods in local currency. This child knows. And if you have extra money, then you can use dollars and euros. Even in Venezuela, where wild inflation in local currency is almost 20% cheaper than hotels in dollars.

We rested in Marmaris, we paid for everything in Turkish lira, much more profitable than in dollars. Especially it’s more pleasant to pay for every little thing in lira (they won’t be deceived with the exchange rate in their favor) - travel, ice cream, fruit. We exchanged dollars at the post office at the rate of 6.1 TL per dollar.

This year I wanted to withdraw from the card from the ATM of Deniz Bank, it turned out that only 100 dollar bills were loaded in it, there was no way to withdraw lira from my card at all.
And in Migros (Goynuk-Kemer), the sellers also do not want to work as an exchange office, they shrug at $100, there is no change ... Therefore, several times I changed $20 and $50 through the Migros cash desk.
