About Renting a Car in Turkey

Turkey's sheer size and diversity make a rental car essential for independent travelers. Drive the Aegean coast past ancient ruins, cruise the Turquoise Coast from Bodrum to Fethiye, or explore the magical landscapes of Cappadocia. Istanbul itself is a driving challenge, but the rest of Turkey rewards road trippers with excellent motorways and spectacular scenery.

Highlights

  • Cappadocia fairy chimneys
  • Pamukkale thermal pools
  • Ephesus ruins
  • Turkish Riviera
  • Nemrut Dağı
Best time to visit

April–May and September–November for comfortable temperatures outside of Istanbul

Driving tips
  • HGS electronic toll tag included with most rentals
  • Istanbul traffic is intense — consider parking outside the city centre
  • Speed cameras are frequent on highways
  • Unleaded petrol (benzin) and diesel (motorin) widely available
