THE ULTIMATE LYCIAN WAY

Yes, most nationalities can just get their visa when they arrive. British pay £10 in cash, Irish €15 in cash, US citizens pay US$20 in cash and all others pay the equivalent of £10 in US$ cash or another hard currency. The exchange booths you will see on arrival make it clear how much you need to pay. If in any doubt about whether you can get on arrival, please check with your nearest embassy.

The most popular dish in Turkey are kebabs, dishes of plain or marinated meat either stewed or grilled. The aubergine and eggplant salad are used in a wide variety of dishes. Kebabs can also be cooked with onions, garlic and tomatoes and served cold as "imam bayildi". Stuffed mussels and shrimp stew are popular as well.

Turkish sweets are famous throughout the world and many of these have milk as the basic ingredient. The best-known are "baklava", "kadayif" pastries and turkish delights. If you like alcohol you can try "Raki" made of anise, it is called the "lions drink" because you must be strong as a lion to drink it!

If you are booking your flight for this trip with Exodus, you will almost certainly be travelling with ThomsonFly. As part of their requirements, passengers are not allowed to board unless they have provided certain details in advance. These include their nationality, passport number, issue date of the passport and date of birth. This information is passed to them by Exodus in advance of travel and you should note that we cannot release final documents until all this information has been provided.

Please note that the holy month of Ramadan will take place from the 20th of July to the 18th of August 2012 (dates can shift slightly). This is a time when followers of Islam do not eat or drink between sunrise and sunset. This can sometimes affect the opening hours of certain tourist sites. However we will ensure that that the itinerary is affected as little as possible if you travel during this period. Food and drink is available to tourists during the day.

Please visit the Exodus Travel Guide to Turkey where you can find out what plugs they use, as well as more detailed Country information in the menu on the left of the page.

I normally take just Sterling cash, with a debit or credit card to use in ATMs as a back up. As long as you excercise the same degree of common sense you would at home, you won't have any problems. Make sure you advise your bank before leaving home that you will be there, to avoid any problems. You will be changing into the local currency, the Turkish lira, and spending that. Almost all towns have money changing and ATM facilities.
