Driving Tips for Turkey

Car rental in Turkey is a pleasurable experience, thanks to well-regulated roads. Make sure you pay attention to some local guidelines:

- Pedestrian right of way: Pedestrians always have right of way when they're crossing the road from the right, so drive carefully in the cities and look out for marked pedestrian crossings.

- Drive carefully in small villages: Half the fun when you rent a car in Turkey is taking road trips. Be careful driving around villages, as the streets are narrow and often steep. Be ready to treat these like single-lane roads.

- Unusual roundabouts: You'll often come across what looks like roundabouts at major intersections. You don't need to slow down if you're on the main road, however. They're there so that cars joining the main road stop and yield to the traffic flow that you're in.

Best places to visit in Turkey

You'll be well rewarded for choosing car hire in Turkey. It's a vast and ancient country, with lots to explore.

- Istanbul: This mythical city that was the capital of diverse empires down the centuries is one of the top 20 European cities to visit for its historical heritage.

- Cappadocia: With tombs dating back to the Byzantine Age, castles over 1,000 years old, and Goreme National Park nearby, Cappadocia should be one of your top destinations for a road trip.

- The Turkish Riviera: Take a drive to Marmaris and enjoy the sights and activities of Turkey's Mediterranean playground, nicknamed the Turquoise Coast for its beaches lapped by gorgeous crystal-clear water.
