Please tell me, we have a tour for 12 days, do I need to apply for a visa upon arrival in Turkey? And with what currency is it better to go to Turkey now?

At the airport, fill out a card for customs. You can take any currency, even rubles and hryvnias are taken, but the exchange rate is bad.

Thank you! Do I need to pay for customs?

Good afternoon. I have been going to Turkey for three years in a row. At customs, I did not fill out any card. In the window at passport control, they simply put a stamp in the passport and that's it! You don't have to pay anything. Pass through passport control and go down the escalator.
As for the currency: it is more profitable to buy products in Turkish lira, and clothes or leather items either in dollars or in euros. Upon arrival, change the currency to lira, but not much. In transport and in stores it will be much cheaper.

Visas to Turkey for Russians were canceled on April 16, 2011. You don’t need to pay or fill out anything, marina-32 is absolutely right, at customs they put a stamp on arrival in the passport and that’s it.
About the currency. We always travel with dollars, upon arrival we exchange some for lira, we are looking for a place where the exchange rate is more favorable. (The airport is definitely not one of these places.)))

Thank you ... just upon arrival in Egypt, we paid 25 dollars per person and wrote cards. So everything is easier in Turkey and you don’t need to pay? And where is the best place to exchange currency for lira?
аватар marina-32
In the village where you will rest, there will definitely be a couple of exchangers. They write the course on the plate. Choose where is best for you.

Thank you)))) We will be in Side. Do not know whether to buy a swimsuit here or you can find it there, probably cheaper and better choice?

In my opinion it is better to buy at home. There are some specific colors. The price is not much different. But it may happen that nothing will appeal. I look there every year, but I still buy houses.
аватар myskatov
I will do so ... but what is better to bring from there ... what do you usually buy, bring home? I also want to ask if I need to take something warm with me in mid-June? Or is it definitely not useful? Swimming probably already warm at this time?

Last year I went in June. I thought I was going to die from this heat. Humidity is wild, but the sea was very warm. I think it will be very hot this year as well.
And I always take sweets home. Mine are very fond of baklava and sherbet. In any store you will be allowed to try everything you want. There you can take in factory packaging and by weight. I take by weight. Definitely tastier. On the way back to the airport, you will be taken to the Sorbet store. There you can also buy baklava, sherbet, and Turkish delight. But it will be too expensive.
I also bring things home. For one trip I dress the whole family. Bargain MANDATORY!!!
Well, no one has canceled souvenirs for work colleagues.
The textiles are great. Bamboo blankets, towels, and a lot of things: coffee, olive oil, pomegranate sauce, spices. But do not buy honey - complete nonsense.

Thank you for everything)))

Pomegranate sauce, olive soap (namely, soap, not oil)))), peeling washcloths, souvenirs...
Sweets - only by weight should be taken. In factory packaging, often it is no longer fresh.
Knitwear. Especially children's.
Go to the Waikiki store (in the village of Manavgat) - drive 10 minutes from the center of Side. There you can also walk to the river and take a boat ride.
There are also exchange offices.
I always change 20-50 dollars right at the airport (there are bank branches at the exit inside and on the right and left sides - it’s convenient to have local currency to pay for travel in minibuses), and then I change 200-300 in exchangers.
June is already warm. A thin blouse with a sleeve is enough in case of a rainy day. But warmer things are unlikely to come in handy.
Have a nice rest.

Bathing accessories are best bought at home. In the resort areas, all this is more expensive, especially with the current dollar exchange rate and the colors are sometimes really wild.
Do not buy anything in those stores where you will be delivered along the way. All this can be bought on the spot, only cheaper.
