Excursions are better to buy in any street agency, there are many of them on the beach, the quality of all is about the same, high. You can withdraw money from Visa and Master Card cards at any of the banks, which are also numerous, but keep in mind that you will be charged a commission for an interbank transfer, and somehow it seemed to me not small. You don’t have to pay with cards there, everyone asks for cash. Tipping is your own business, there are no specific standards.

It is customary to give one dollar to porters and cleaning ladies. When dining in a restaurant, it is customary to leave 10 percent of the order as a tip.
You can pay with cards even in souvenir shops, not to mention more serious shops.

at ATMs, money is withdrawn in lira, though I can’t say for all ATMs, maybe I’ve come across such ones, so plan the withdrawn amount in advance, the commission for cash withdrawal depends on your bank, you need to clarify in advance (I used VISA GOLD, they removed 4% of the amount and 3 dollars for a foreign bank, but I got into credit money, paid 1% and 3 dollars for my own) and be sure to notify the bank employee serving you that you plan to use the card abroad so that the bank does not block your card, save your receipts . Upon arrival, I always check with the bank, tfu-tfu-tfu, while there were no surprises

For many years we have been taking excursions on the street, service, service at the level, don’t be afraid about insurance either, it doesn’t depend on where you took the tour, but don’t forget that the case is not recognized as insurance if alcohol is found or it is established that the injury was received when doing extreme sports (rafting and other extreme / excursions, regardless of where they were purchased), another point is that the hotel may be out of the way and there are simply no street agencies nearby - then there is a guide. About money: be sure to take small $, both for tips and for souvenirs (it makes no sense to change for lira, there is minimal savings when paying for bus tickets), last year they took rubles at the bank rate in the shops, by the way, the hotel is happy with our chocolate, vodka , champagne (alcohol may well replace $ 20 when choosing a room upon check-in) It is better not to withdraw money from the card, but paying for purchases in shopping centers and duty free is sometimes even more profitable than in foreign currency.
