Don’t forget to buy Turkish liras (TRY) before you leave for Turkey

If you are planning a trip to Turkey, it is advisable to be familiar with the handling of the country's currency so that you can establish a travel budget. The price level in Turkey is not particularly high, so your stay will not be very expensive. The local currency is the Turkish lira, known locally as the 'lira' (TRY). Along with your credit and debit cards we advise you to carry a certain amount of liras with you as some situations will require cash. To get a better offer, we recommend you to exchange some dollars into liras before your departure.

Practical tips for planning your budget

Tipping in Turkey is not compulsory but is very much appreciated, but it is important to know that every Turkish customer will leave a tip. If you have already exchanged some pounds into liras beforehand it will be easier for you to tip right away.

It is wise to plan your daily budget before you leave in order to anticipate your expenses. It is advisable to set a daily budget of 966 Turkish liras per day per person. This will allow you to stay in a hotel for two people, buy an average of two meals and buy a public transport ticket.
