I am planning on traveling to Turkey. Is it safe for a woman to travel to that beautiful country alone? |
Travel Info I know Turkey is a very hospitable country and their people very kind, but have also heard many rumors of women being kidnapped on a rather constant basis and I am a little concerned, but I still want to go. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Travel Tips Kidnap on constant basis is exaggerated and untrue. However it would be wise for you to follow common sense. Avoid off-shore routes. Hang out in crowded places and don麓t look too vulnerable. Act like you would normally do if you didn麓t want to be kidnapped in your country of origin. Since the locals can sometimes be over friendly you may want to keep cool. Don麓t drink too much and always keep an eye on your drink. If you have to go to the bathroom, bring your drink with you or order a new one when you get back to your seat. Lots of gentlemen will treat you to a drink, or at least they will ask. Have lots of fun in Turkey and have an orange juice on me! Others yes there were something in the news do you know why it was in the news? because it is an awkward situation for turkey, when people learn that you're tourist they become even nicer than ever before :)) and when someone rapes a tourist or kidnaps her, that's shame, really shame that doesn't happen often but you know every country has trolls if you go to a safe place, hotel then everything would be perfect and i haven't seen any bad thing in the news for a long time have fun in t眉rkiye well, I cannot say that it is 100% safe, as noone can say this for any country, there are bad people living there as well as the nice ones, but it is true that they will do anything to make you feel happy and pleased, just try to be a little bit careful, try not to go to dodgy places alone, try to get on to the "durak" taxis (taxies belong to a cab station) and try to keep your money and passport in a safe place - just as you would do in any foreign country- I hope you would have a great time there, because it is a beautiful place to visit... have fun;) I'm Turkish and have lived in Turkey for 27 years:) I would avoid it. I would go to Istanbul and crowded places, or to excursions with an organised group to the archaeological sites, by coach, but I would avoid being alone. Kurdish mafia does that to mainly russian girls. Stay awake and don't accept every offer for help. Watch for dark-skinned, sweaty individuals. Well i made nearly all parts of Turkey with a friend who is a girl and it passed without any problem. Turkey is like any other European country. Istanbul is one of the safest metropoles of the world. And i say that because it is an official fact and because i made nearly whole Europe either alone or with a friend. And i didn't see huge differences anywhere. So don't worry. |
