Check out the Türkiye - More Than a Tourist Travel Guide with tons of insider tips and start planning your best adventure: www.wildvikingtravels.com/shop-1/p/trkiye-more-than-a-tourist-travel-guide
Hey folk! I am from Turkey, Izmir. I can really suggest you to visit warm places like Antalya and Cesme/Alacati for turistic places. Also Mugla has very beautiful sea and you can see caretta caretta (sea turtles) in Iztuzu Beach since its a nesting place for them. Another turistic place is Kapadokya but everybody know there already. If you want to explore even more than you can try city called Rize in the north side for Ayder Yaylasi and Uzungol which has incredible forest nature and food (muhlama, sarma, local music and dance/horon). Also you can visit city called Van for its lake and incredibly rich breakfasts. I suggest wherever you go try Van breakfast which also there in the big cities like Istanbul (Moda Van Kahvalti). And dont forget to try raki (local alcohol) and local fresh fish (levrek/cipra) but you need to do it in a restaurant by the sea. These restaurants are called meyhane and they have very popular local and global sides E.g. Kopeoglu / Tekmil Fava / Borulce / Kalamar / Pacanga etc. You should also try some kebap in places like Mersinli Cigerci Apo which is very popular again for the different kind of sides. Actually there are also too many other delicious food to eat and even the local families can do some of them for you like Borek/Sarma/Manti etc. Our local non-alcoholic baverages are Ayran and Salgam which are salty liquid yougurt and spicy pickle juice respectfully and without pulps. Food culture is very rich in Turkey since its inherited from the Ottoman Empire and its sill very unknown for the globe. And it is for every taste whether you are vegan or non-vegan. There are also various types of deserts you should try like Baklava/Kunefe/Kazandibi. Well if you worry about weight gain then you can swimm for sport lol. I am wishing you the best travel byes!
We stayed in Turkey with our caravan for 2 weeks because of covid. In 2 weeks, maybe more than 100 people asked if we needed anything. They connected electricity and water to our caravan, served breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. I have visited about 60 countries, I have not seen a hospitable friendly helpful people like the Turks. All the news about Turkey in Europe is a big lie. Thank you so much... Teşekkür☺️🙏
As a Turk, I am so glad that you came here and saw it with your own eyes. The news is now made for ratings and completely strayed from realities. I guess this is the same in all over the world.
We lived in Turkey for five years. We had four children and we all cried when we had to leave because our visas we're expiring. But the Turks won because they kept a good portion of our hearts with them. I breaks my heart to see how Western commerce is weaseling their way into their culture ( Macdonald's, Pizza Hut, Starbucks, etc.) . I hope that he Turks take advantage but do not allow those companies to change their culture. I hope that the Turkish government maintains a stance of allowing them to visit but not to own the land.
Here in Greece such companies have had a hard time competing with the local more traditional shops for the most part, and are mostly absent outside the capital. I say this because Turkey shares a lot with us in those regards to my understanding(cuisine etc), so they will probably stand strong, especially outside the biggest couple cities.
Dünyanın bizi çok yanlış tanıdığını düşünüyordum hep haklıydım iyi ki sizin gibi cesur insanlar var kapımız herkese açık izlerken ağladım bu güzel düşünceler için bir Türk olarak teşekkür ederim ☺️
Kimsenin bizi yanlış tanıdığı falan yok Avrupa nüfusunun yarısı dan çoğu Türkiyeyi senden benden yüz kat daha fazla gezmiştir emin ol Türkiye turistlere cennet heleki avrupalılara tam cennet bunu bir turizmci olarak söylüyorum sadece avrupanın medyası bizi kötü gösteriyor ama batı halkı kendi medyalarının bile ne kasar ikiyüzlü olduğunu biliyor
As an Israeli I understand that we are politically at a disconnect but this is further from the truth with everyday Turkish people. Whilst travellingI I have never felt more loved, welcomed even when I mentioned I was an Israeli in a predominantly Moslim country. God bless this beautiful country and it’s people . Love from Bnei Brak 🇮🇱 ❤️ 🇹🇷
Ben milliyetçi bir Türk' üm. Ömrü tamamlanmak üzere olan geçici yönetimlerin canı cehenneme dostum. Çanakkale savaşlarında yüzbinlerce insan can verdikten ve düşman püskürtüldükten sonra, diplomaside yapılan bir hata sonucunda istanbul' a ingiliz fransız birlikleri çıktığında, yaptıkları saygısızlıklara dayanamayıp sivil haliyle ilk kurşunu atan, bir osmanlı yahudisidir. Bu topraklar yahudilerin de vatanıdır. İngiliz stratejisi yeşil kuşak sonucu böyle görünebiliriz. Ama ben yahudilerin burada kendini güvende hissetmesini falan bir kenara at, ikinci evi gibi görmeleri gerektiğini düşünüyorum.
I am an American ( Kentucky )and live in Bavaria Germany now...I was in Side,Turkey for 3 months..It was my first time there...The most kindest caring people I have ever met..Loved the food and I was staying at a small hotel..I like them better as I would be uncomfortable at one of them fancy ones. and the food was awesome ..I am what my mom called me an olive monster...and the little things like having olives at breakfast...I was like Oh yes I am loving this..I am now leaning how to cook Turkish food ...Spicy and very tasty..I will say this ...I Love Turkey!!! The Turkish people has a place in my heart and forever will. and to see the Mediterranean sea... Just beautiful.. I felt at home there..
@@racheallange2056 Hope you come again, but if you comes please try to visit East of Turkey, too. For example Göbeklitepe, Ani Ruins, Nemrut Mountain. People are more warm in small villages, because they still lives as old times. At the past, foreign people was coming and staying your house on nights while going somewhere. People was trusting each other, but nowadays people are worse than past, so people cant trust much anyone.
Thank you for making this video. As a Canadian who married a Turk (met in London) whose business was then destroyed by the measures so we ended up moving to Turkey, I have told so many people that Turkey is misrepresented and is actually one of the best kept secrets. The Canadian government has it as a red zone (do not go, high risk) on its website. Why?! I feel safer In Turkey than I ever did in London UK or Toronto or Vancouver. And the Turkish people are warm and loving. I love this country, which is now my home, and encourage everyone to visit. For your travels, I suggest Termessos, a high ancient ruin that is like walking through an Indiana Jones movie set, as the jungle has swallowed the fallen temples. I also suggest the area around Şırınçe, because it is a lot like Tuscany and has the preserved traditional Turkish houses that were mostly destroyed. Enjoy!
I think the answer of why Canada and other Cristian countries says that Türkiye isn’t safe to go is so simple for the people who knows Real History of world:) they don’t want you to know and scout out the treasures inside of Türkiye and Islam ☪️
Totally agree,we moved to Turkey 5 yrs ago and never have i felt unsafe,unlike the UK which is a complete opposite,no regrets ,i love this country so much and count myself so lucky to live in this wonderous country.
Turkey is a magical country. It has everything: history, culture, natural and man-made wonders, four climates, food, mystic.. and of course unmatched hospitality. Turkey is definitely number one destination in the world!
@@katehe1en224 that's necessary. If there were no verses like that , then there will be no Muslims today. So as Muslim I am happy with verses that command to fight for your rights.
@@timwehmeyerjr6117 yes that's happening on some places, generally on touristic places but not everybody doing it. Sorry for that, 1$ equals 18.5₺, 18 times valuable and people says Turkish people 20₺ but he says you 2$, it doesnt seems much on dollar but on TL, 16₺ more. Almost twice.
@@suleyman3989 well we have to pay so much to come there.. the curency problem isnt our problem.. 2$ is all we should be paying any more then that then quality isnt worth it.. dont compare usd with turkish liras liras arent comparable at all there no value to it
I'm kind of an introvert, but Turkey and it's people are actually therapeutic for me. If you share the moment in the now instead of the past, not only will you experience the joy of existence, but you will also be able to heal old wounds. Turkish people made me learn to trust into humanity again. (It's people - not the salesman) ^_^
This is so true... We only have so much time on this planet and we should't waste it.. we are all one community, one family and we shouldn't listen to the people who want us to be divided... life is so much fuller if you "experience the joy of existence".
I went to Turkey for a holiday and I loved it so much I went right back and stayed for 8 years :D its always in my heart and I miss it a lot. I'm glad you can see how wonderful it is and I hope many people see this video and decide to give Turkey a try..I'm sure they will fall in love with it too :)
@@sibelgece Not really.. I am an American ( Kentucky) trying to live with my Bavarian husband here in Germany... well we messed up with the red tape thing..and I had to leave but turned out fine a shop keeper took my worried crazy self under his wing and helped me out ..I was a bit of a mess to tell the truth.. upset that I had to leave my husband and home ..I don´t get to travel much and tend to overthink things...nice guy and like a brother to me.
100000% AGREE.. I went to Istanbul twice but have not travelled out of the city, I just LOVE the people, the culture.. and the MUSIC. Thanks for this video
I'm not Turkish and I agree with your observation 100%. You are one of the few people who connected the dots of religious upbringing and the kindness shown to strangers. As a person with dark skin travelling with my kids in small villages I realised it is the only country in Europe that I could feel safe .
@@history_repeats8201 I mean, if somebody come to your nation, sell drugs, rapes your women and kids, kills your teenagers, you would be pretty racist too. But believe me brother, there is not any racism in Turkey. Just arabs trying to make turkey racist. They just keep pushing further and furter.
@@history_repeats8201 If 2 million people immigrated to the country you live in, if the attitudes of these people were not constructive and it would affect social peace and welfare, I am sure you would feel differently.
@@fitchungus6803 your statement is racism. You generalize that a whole race is a bunch of thieves and rapists. According to your thinking then the Germans will be OK to say something similar for the Turks in Germany. I have visited one of the Turkish Ghettos in Germany and it was like a war zone. BUT we cannot generalize and say all Turks in Germany are a bunch of filthy thieves. That would be racism
@@history_repeats8201 it’s not racism when you came by millions to live with us in our country. You occupy our hospitals, our houses,schools, jobs, public transportation. Turkish people are the ones suffering because of arabs.
I grew up thinking Turkey was a dark and sinister country because of stupid movies and media lies. Goes to show how we must confront media and our own gvmts and stay together as people. Ive experienced the generosity of Turks and do hope to visit Turkey one day for myself.
Dahlton, life is short and living conditions constantly put obstacles in front of you to delay your ideal. My advice to you is to get on a plane this summer and come to Turkiye. Believe me, after that your life will change. You'll see so many beautiful places, taste so many interesting flavors, and meet so many good people, you'll never be the old Dahlton again. Because your view of the world will change.
Hi, I’m from Argentina and I’ve been living in Turkey for 5 years. I recommend you visit the Black Sea region (Kara Deniz). A few places there are Kure Mountains, full of beautiful untouched forests and canyons, Rize and Artvin for the yaylas (plateaus) in the middle of the mountains with majestic scenery.
We visited Turkey this last summer for the first time. We had no agenda, I had been learning the language slowly for 2 years and I found the people of Istanbul were mostly so grateful for me trying they overlooked how tourist we were. My husband and I never felt more safe. We made lifelong friends and hope to go back in the next 4 months or so. We have been to other countries but Turkey by far is our favorite!!!
Now imagine a Turk, living and born in Europe, already knowing how welcoming Turkey is, and while knowing this, has to endure a lot of low level racism and negative talking about their mother-land while growing up… while living there… And still not hating the country they are born in… and keep staying respectful towards the ppl and culture… Never being able to prove by talking they are misinformed… Wish a lot more ppl saw this video…
Me too my friend me too! I am sad to see racism also in my home country but let's bit by bit share the knowledge and hopefully one day we'll all be equal!
Well, lets not pretend Turkey/Turkiye is immune to racism. Kurds are regularly stamped as "terörist", usually with no proper reason, while Assyrians and Armenians were wiped out of the country, those crimes still being denied by the government at official level. Armenophobia, Kurdophobia are heavily widespread and the MHP party (basically fascist ideology) gets more than 20% of the votes.
@@frankozrin5611 You dont know what you are talking about. Just from your comment, i can tell you have never been to Turkiye. In Turkiye you have Kurds that are Pop stars, Army Generals, Actors, so on and so forth. You are refering to the PKK which is a communist terrorist organisation that is on the US EU terrorist list. Lastly, Turkie has a large Armenian community living there.
Unfortunately , the Western world have never been friendly to Turkey or to Turkish people. The West hates everything Islamic regardless if it is Sunni , Shiite , Ahmadi etc.. It is a historical hatred that will never be cleaned from their heart. We should not listen to what they say because our religion is the cleanest, and the most just not only to humanity but also to animals. I was so proud when I did a DNA test couple of years ago and found out that 47% of my DNA is Turkish. I was more proud when I also found out the Sultan Abdel Hamid the second , in 1912 , signed on our family tree that we are one of the noblest families in Palestine. In 2019 , My family and I went to Istanbul for 3 weeks and we loved it. I felt we were home. Therefore, In Sha'Allah after I retire I will be moving from USA to Turkey.
Well Denize my freind dont let this worry you to much most of us know the about the lies we are being fed and i beleive most of this comes from the USA and beleive me this is one of the worst places to live and i have lived there.i feel sorry for the people they are fed lie after lie...I have been to Turkey many times and i found the people wonderful yes we all have bad eggs but for me Turkey is wonderful...so hey have a great life..
@@aixle3590 nationality and religion are two different things , there is no such thing as that a religion doesn’t fit in some country, you dont make sense .

Hi Jen Look at this Kate fella how she is hacking into this site. I doubt she has anything to do with Islam either. Just a troll to make people to piss off.
I've lived in Turkey 6 months in the last 2 years. People are good and welcoming, I respect their religion, learned a little bit the language. They have a very good infrastructure, good food, cheap fruits and vegetables. I love Turkey.
@@katehe1en224 lütfen doğru olanı söyleyin,bakara 178 ayette cinayet işleyen cani hakkında bir hüküm var. cinayet işleyenin idam edilmesinden bahsedilmektedir ancak cinayete kurban gidenin birinci dereceden akrabasına af etme hakkı verilmekte ve katilin bir ödeme karşılığı (bu para sadece para anlamı taşımaz ödeme bir ceza olarak) serbest bırakılması anlatılmaktadır,diğer ayetler savaş sırasında saldıran tarafa karşı savaş hakkı vermekte,ve diğer ayetlerde yine farklı konularda farklı haklardan bahsedilmektedir ve yine bunun sonraki seçenek olduğu önceliğin af etmek iyi davranmak olduğu bildirilmektedir,burada sıraladığıniz ayetleri tek tek açıklama imkanım malesef yok ancak siz bu ayetleri okudu iseniz mutlak gerçeği görmüş olmalısınız okumadı iseniz lütfen okuyun çeviriye dikkat ederek,kuran asla şiddet uygula demez ancak şiddet görene şiddet ile karşılık verme hakkı tanır,

I’m Scottish however have travelled to Turkey around 10 times now, I highly suggest you visit the Temple of Apollo in Didyma. Not only is it one of the oldest historical ruins still standing but it is located in an area which has been maintained as a traditional marketplace with beautifully cultural heritage comprising, stalls, farms and bars/cafes where you can find incredible live music and delicious Turkish cuisine. We may even bump into you there as we’re travelling this month too! Safe travels and thank you for enlightening people on the misconceptions of this astounding country🇹🇷❣️
Hello Scottish friend. I recommend you to visit the Black Sea region. Its climate, geography and people are close to you. You can even see closeness in musical instruments
I like Türkiye so much that I have visited it several times. The Turks have a great heart, they are so adorable, friendly, I adore culture, music, food. If you've ever been to Türkiye, I suggest you go to the Black Sea region. May God bless Türkiye and the nation.
@@cammellodelledune1282 Fuck off, no. We are not all muslim. People in this country know no shit about real islam and what is written in kuran, they can't read or understand arabic language, they don't know wtf is being said on prayer calls. We are actually sick of government putting muslim title to every new born children's identity card. We are a seculer country. Your umma is a joke🤡💩
Not all are like that. A lot of us are selfish, cold and aggressive. Actually i'm always surprised when someone say good stuff about us. Barbarian turk image is slowly fading away i guess.
I was born and raised in Switzerland as a daughter of Turkish immigrants. I was constantly subjected to ignorance and discrimination because of my background. It’s been 21 years since I left Switzerland, yet the scars of being othered still remain. I wished I knew how wrong my bullies were about my people. Feels so good to watch this and read the beautiful comments. ❤
I am a Turkish New Zealander and I can resonate with your experience of discrimination and peoples ignorance of Turkey and Turkish society. I've always wished I could take some New Zelanders to Turkey and expose them to Turkish hospitality so they can realize they've been wrong and have completely misunderstood us. Peace at home, peace in the world is our motto.
Hey I am an Aussie living in Turkey! I would definetly reccomend Canakkale, a univercity city so everyone is young, musical and enjoys sport and surfing on the nearby islands of Goekcada and Bozcada, Feel free to hit me up if you are in canakkale and I can show you the old greek mountain village of Adatepe.
I absolutely second that recommendation!!! Part of my family live in that area. You would love the views, food and people in Adatepe, Behramtepe, Assos, Zeus's Alter, Temple of Athena and the entire Edremit Bay area via Izmir-Canakkale highway. There are many camping sites along the way for you and your van. If you end up in Canakkale and the islands, you can also visit the Galibolu National Park to learn about the epic battle of Gelibolu that took place during the WW1.
And a bit further in south, Kazdag mountain has good Camping places along side the river coming from the mountain. Then you can continue south to Ayvalık following the shore. Sarımsaklı beach is famous around that region. And after Ayvalık further south, there is Dikili. Some call it Maldives of Turkey. Pisa bay and Kalem island are natural beauty there. There are Camping places nearby for you to replenish. Wishing you fulfiling and joyful journey. My former flatmate was Estonian so as one of your song says from your singing revolution : Mingem üles mägedele :)
Well he’s going to cross the border up in Edirne and 3-4 hours time should get them to Galipoli a tour, then jumping to the Anatolian side Çanakkale, Troy, Assos and down the coastline to Adatepe and Yeşilyurt 😙👌🏻 keep following the coastline down to İzmir, Aydin all the way to Fetiye that route is full off Historic sites and beautiful Aegean seaside small towns 🤙🏻 then inland to the eastern side Iskenderun, Antep, Urfa, Diyarbakır while seeing Geyiklitepe, Zeugma, Nemrut and more for a totally different type of history and culture and back from the Karadeniz shoreline for some amazing scenery 😉
@@katehe1en224 first of all, Turkey is a secular country, people choose to believe in Islam and we dont make laws depending on Quran. and second of all, the information you have given is misleading, if you had done a little research about these verses, you would see that most of them are talking about the punishments for crimes and the rest of them were given to the muslims of the time when they were fighting in a war. Next time, do a research before insulting people's beliefs.
@@yun_ique1 Here is an Arab pretending to be a Turk as I said here before🤥 The religion of Islam is against the Turks so if you are a real Turk you cannot be a Muslim because the religion of the Arabs Islam is against the Turks and throughout history the Arabs have killed Turks😔
I just got back from Turkey! Loved it. It's a place I would come back to, there are still so many places I want to go there. And the hospitality and friendliness of the people was awesome. Food was great, Lots of beautiful scenery and places.
I am myself from Turkey, I grew up there and I had the best childhood with my beautiful people. We are just misunderstood as Turks. The interesting thing about my country is that if you go to west you will feel the touches of European cultures combined with Turkish culture. If you go to the east you will feel the eastern aura and the beauty of the starry nights while sleeping on the roof. If you go north, you feel the cold and aggressive waves of the Black Sea hitting the high cliffs and the greenest forests being home for bears and deers . If you go to the south you will get a good sunburn and see the nights full of dance and music. But the hospitality never changes. My beautiful country is just a bit tired of this prejudice and enmity that Europeans have against us. Love from Türkiye! Don’t hate without knowing
Hi 👋🏼 we just moved permanently to Turkey from Australia I’m Uruguayan and my wife is Turkish and we have chosen to settle in Karadeniz (Blacksea) region in Trabzon. Wishing you all the best in your travels brother 👍🏼
Currently in Turkey..absolutely in love with this country ❤. People are just amazing,especially in places like shops ans hotels,they are so kind. I am ltalian,l live in ltaly and l can say not everyone in my country is kind,like in Turkey. My opinion.

*Turkiye has everything. Entertainment, nature, rooted history, rich culture, various endemic plant species, rich underground resources, 4 season climate, all kinds of vegetation, first settlements, underground and metropolitan cities, delicious food, east-west spice mix effects, friendly people, hospitality, friendly animals. Every country has its own beauties, but Turkiye has all of those beauties. Our language, our flag, our anthems are unique. It has a variety of landscapes suitable for all types of travellers; There are snow covered hills, plateaus, valleys, canyons, temples, fairy chimneys, Kaçkar mountains, crater lakes, ancient places, historical monuments, sparkling beaches and 103 Unesco world heritage sites. Not to mention corners of paradise such as Istanbul, Ankara, Cappadocia, Pamukkale, Izmir, Trabzon, Rize, Muğla and Antalya! Almost the center of the world; It is a transcontinental country that acts as a bridge connecting Asia, Europe and Africa. Turkiye is the most strategic and richest country in the world in terms of geography.*
Of all the countries I have been to, Turkey is the place I love the most. All of what he says is true. I knew all this over 50 years ago. I hope to go and live there permanently very soon. To disappoint him, in winter there are many places with temperatures below -30. Ankara being one !
You liar. The economic crisis in the world, of course, also exists in our country. But this has affected our purchasing power. We have become a cheaper country for Robert row just that. If you want to live in Turkey my friend Robert Row, I think you are making the best decision. You must live in a beautiful seaside town. People who speak negatively are malicious. You'll see when it comes
@@kkaya39 He will not live on the lira. For this reason, he will live more luxuriously here than in his own country. Even if the economic problems are bad, the future will be very bright for Turkey and its people. We are focused on trying to produce. We will feel its prosperity in the medium term. The future of my non-production Europe is dark. Working nations that produce will be strong in the future. I believe that very good days will come for Turkey. Only when inflation improves, the problems will all end
Turkey is genuinely an hidden gem in the world we live in! People would rather want to go to London, Paris, or New York but I would rather want to visit Istanbul, Izmir, or Ankara. I'm so glad I came to love the Turkish culture, language, and people!
"a stranger is just a friend you have not met yet!" This impressed me a lot. I am a Turkish living abroad and glad to hear&see your trip to Türkiye made you and so many Turks happy.
As a Turk living in Australia, thank you for this video and thank you for showing the truth about my beloved country. After 55 years of living abroad I’m in the process of making a permanent move back to my homeland.

@@katehe1en224 and also you sound ignorant to say that ' İslam is against Turks ' while 99% of Turks are Muslim and Islam is still the chosen religion regardless whether it was forced initially. You think you are smart or being smart trying to put focus on being Türk over being Muslim, but i have bad news for you. Being Türk isn't so special just as being Muslim isn't either. After all most Turks now identify their religion as İslam, every corner of the country is filled with mosques, so what you are after is a big BullShit.. Yeah sure you can convince all the Turkish nation to rid itself of Islam, i am for it while you are at it, convince them also rid itself from being Türk...
Of course there are bad bloke in TRK, as in everywhere, but people in TRK are generally very kind, helpful, and with a great sense of humor. People there are indeed extremely generous and hospitable outside the cities, even to strangers. Your video is spot on and I am so happy you made it. I hope more people in Europe see this video.
Welcome to Turkey again. If you are interested in history, you can visit Safranbolu, which is on the UNESCO world heritage list with its Ottoman houses. There is also a canyon nearby... If you love nature, you can visit Ulubey Canyon, the world's 2nd largest canyon, in Uşak. If you go to Manisa Kula, you can also visit the geopark there. There are also fairy chimneys there. Also, Kaş and Kalkan is a perfect sea holiday destination
Wonderful! Thank you for the recommendation! I visited most of these places last time and they are amazing. Such unique nature 😁👍. But I will mark the rest down on my map. Sending my best wishes from Estonia 😀👌
@@WildVikingTravels Also Phrygian Valley in western Turkey might be a good option for van trip. It is a significant and amazing historical site which is a sister of Cappodocia but older and underrated as yet little known. It would be great option to introduce in the youtube as no much international TH-camrs visited as a less touristic destination due to lack of advertisement.
So lovely to watch your impressions about 🇹🇷 I’ve lived there for 17 years, finished my medical school, as an Asian I’ve never felt that I was different from Turkish people, it’s the best place to live and have great relationships with people! I recommend you to visit islands close to İstanbul, Efes- old greek city and village Sirince in Izmir, Sumela monastery up in the mountain in Trabzon, Old city and Mor Gabriel monastery in Mardin. Have great time again in 🇹🇷😄
I have been going to Turkiye almost every year since 2014 and I have been impressed by the kindness and hospitality of the Turkish family the country offers a lot.
I didn't perceive the ideas of tourists visiting our country about people living in Turkey as "they are very warm-blooded, helpful" until I went abroad, which seemed a little exaggerated to me. But I was wrong, I think it seemed ordinary to me because I was used to the culture in which I was born, I realized this during my visits to other countries, we are really warm-hearted and sincere helpful people at the core of our culture. So we are grateful for your thoughts, we always welcome you to our country🙏
Yeah I kinda dont get it either. I have never been out of turkey before. Things just seem... ordinary to me? Could other countries really be that cold in manners? I mean... people are good and bad everywhere and no country is black or white. Maybe its about our culture of hospitality?
@@nightshade2826 I believe in the fact that there are good and bad people in every country. I have not said that people who are not sincere are bad people, I am not saying that we are sincere and we are good in the same way. People can be more warm-blooded, more hospitable or colder than the culture in which they were born. As you said, we are more hospitable than usual, so I say that I am used to it. So this may be good for me, but it may not be good for someone else, I respect it, someone who grew up in another culture in another country may not like this intimacy, which is normal.
@@mervehediyeozen8141 Oh I agree! And honestly, thank you for saying that not everybody may like the intimacy. I am one of those people, being extremely shy. So I would be one of those who are colder than the culture they were born in.
@@nightshade2826 You can be sure that I absolutely understand you :) I absolutely support the view that no one should have to be sincere. Besides, it's just as normal that you're shy, it's not a problem. Thank you for sharing your ideas! :)
I am not from Turkey, but I had a great time traveling from Istanbul along the Dardenelles (the European side) to Gallipoli and Troy, then by ferry back to Canakkele on the Asian side, on to Ayvalik, where you can stay in a,stone house built into the sea, Cesme, Kusedasi and Bodrum. While these are touristy, its the heart of the people in the small villages in between that will warm you most.
@@katehe1en224 What a pointless comment. A majority of Turks are secular cultural Muslims who don't read Quran and don't really practice Islam. The religious Muslim Turks aren't pro-violence either since they don't follow Salafism/Vahhabism.
I've spent a lot of time in Fethiye, I know a lot of British retirees who live there. On the whole, they have a very low opinion of Turks, rarely eat Turkish food, drink Turkish coffee, or make much effort to speak the language. It's quite sad to see, some spend most of the time complaining about the prices, the weather (it's either too hot, too cold or too wet) or the Turks in general. They are paranoid about getting ripped off or robbed. Whenever I go there, I always make an effort to speak as much Turkish as I can, spend as little time as possible at places frequented by Brits, and eat at places the locals eat in. I love Turkey, and plan to stay there long-term in the near future.
Well, having been the victim of several dirty businessmen, I can say that their "paranoia" about getting ripped off is justified. That was the one thing that ruined the country for me. This is why you will never get mugged in Turkey, because they will rob you another way. But to be fair, I think this is just how British people are, because they do the same thing in Spain. They set up their own little enclaves, and don't even bother learning Spanish. So I think this is just how they are. It's funny though, because these the same people who complain that immigrants don't assimilate in their country. I LOVE the English by the way, but I am simply stating facts here.
We live in Istanbul and we ADORE the Turkish people! You are so right about their kindness. We drove for 5 weeks along the Black Sea coast last summer and suggest that you make some time to go there. The Black Sea was lovely to swim in. Slightly inland are amazing mountain roads and hazelnut farms. We will be following your journey to Japan! Good luck!!! Xoxo 😘
A little tip; If you are not a good swimmer, be careful while swimming in the Black Sea and ask local people about suitable beaches to swim.Local people will be happy to assist you.
i am not a Turkish citizen, yet I'm now a student in Turkey, particularly in Mersin province, it's south of Adana, East of Antalya and Southeast of Konya. i'd be happy to show you around someday, that is, if you'd decide to come to Mersin. It's warm, if not hot, all the time, if not always, haha! even in the winters, it's never been below 0, always somewhere around 3-14 celsius. one thing to note about Mersin is that, it's a city of beach, tranquility, and quietness.
This year i was in Halfeti. I had a really nice time. The nature is amazing, there are some local birds that you can see just in Halfeti, food is great, people very friendly. It is in southeast Anatolia but you feel yourself in Mediterranen. 2. Kahta near Adiyaman and mt. Nemrut really nice. A lot of history and pure nature.
My wife and I moved to Turkey from the UK 2 years ago and we love it. You do get pushy vendors in the markets more. We live in the Fetiye area its amazing
I can't believe how many nice messages there are about Turkey from foreigners. It almost tears me up :) Since I am Turkish, I should do as requested. I think Cappadocia is really well known. One of my favourite places in Turkey is the Sümela Manastırı (monastery) in Trabzon. Also, Hatay (Antakya) is one of the best places to try all kinds of food and has the oldest church in Anadolu. Hope this is useful to someone.
I was born and raised in Kentucky USA ...I was just in Side Turkey for 3 months...I fell in love ...I cried when I had to leave ..I just love the kindness of the people there ..I live in Bavaria,Germany..My husband is Bavarian. I never in my life ever thought I would see the Mediterranean sea...Turkey has a place in my heart and I dare anyone to say something bad about it ..as I will fight back.

Thank you very much for introducing our history and cultural structures. My heart stayed in this video and it made me cry and emotional. It is an honor to learn how we are human by a European. I hope the misconception that the Turks are bad in the western media will be the last. This world is all ours. Live with love and stay happy. By the way, don't forget to go to the center of Kocaeli, Kartepe, there is a magnificent mountain area and ski center. TANRI SENİNLE OLSUN. ❤🙏
Turkey is such a country like no other in the world, 200 civilizations have lived in Turkey and each city has a distinctive feature and beauty. I recommend you to visit all of Turkey, Regards, fearless viking..
In the seventeen years I’ve been travelling there, it never fails to amaze me how warm and hospitable the Turkish people are. I can’t wait to come back to wonderful Kalkan in April to see all my friends again.

Gerçekten çok duygulandım. Canım Türkiyeme sizi böyle güzel ağırladıkları için teşekkür ediyorum umarım gelen her yabancı dostumuz aynı güzel hislerle evlerine dönebilirler. Türkiye dünyanın en anlayışlı ülkelerinden biridir. Her yerin, her ülkenin iyisi kötüsü vardır. yabancı basında türkiyenin farklı yansıtılması çok kötü . Neyseki sizler varsınız ve bizim tüm güzelliklerimizi dünyaya gösteriyorsunuz. Minnettarım 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Much love to Turkey from brother country. they are always welcoming, hospitable and warm. I love how you experienced it firsthand yourself and shared it with the World.
I adore you guys. Thank you for this beautiful video that reflect the beauty of people of Türkiye and their hospitality. I’m a Turkish women myself grow up in Sweden. When I was a kid I was faced with racism and called dirty because I was Turkish. The western media has contributed to this notion. I’m crying for happiness for you to expose the truth and thank you guys for being. such a beautiful people. Seni seviyorum ❤️🙏🏼
I’m sorry you went through that as a child ,I’ve just came back from turkey for the first time it’s a great place , you should be very proud to be Turkish, ❤️from Scotland 🏴
When I go online and defend Türkiye the people think I am a Türk and I can tell everyone here that I have been called all the names in the book, but I will not stop. Bende seni çok seviyorum 🌷
Ohh how I loved your vid/words it shows humanity hasn’t got a label ! Turkey is indeed a great country and yes I’m with in its way underrated country because of god knows why, have been in many European countries that they haven’t got the quarter beauty Turkey have . Peace and love 💕
gözlerini açan nadir birisndensin. hep turistbölgeyi görüp çürük elmaları anlatmakldan ziyade gerçek türk halkı görmek çok çok farklı. yüksek enflasyon, darbeler, yoksulluk içinde biz türkler hiç bir zaman umut kaybetmedik kaybetmeyiz. bizim zenginlik para değil, bizim zenginlik gönülzenginlik - unutmadan: paylaşmak ve misafirperver ve ve ... saymakla bitmez. ... türkiyeden selamlar
I 1000% agree with you. Thanks for getting a positive picture and bringing this video to the world. I personally love Turkiye and recently visited this May. The western media does not like Turkiye and I knew it from get go. First time I visited Turkiye in 2014 I compared my notes both on history and culture from Turkish Islamic vs western media perspectives. They are day and night apart. It’s not only the places are beautiful and rich in history, no where in my life I have met such friendly and helpful people. I am still connected with many who I had no idea who they were before my visit, but we chat and talk to each other despite language barriers.
We spent a couple of weeks travelling across Turkey. And my goodness, it was the most friendly and helpful country I had visited. The people are truely so warm and so helpful. The sights, sounds are so amazing and the food!

Hi Joe, welcome back to Turkey, we are a family who are doing a year in a van through Turkey, maybe we will meet you one day. We all enjoy your videos, they are amazing. And we want to thank you for mentioning the true face about Islam. We wish you a nice trip back.
Heyhey! I am so happy you enjoyed the video! 😊👌 It would be awesome to meet you guys. Do you already know which part of Turkey you will be in around September?
I've been touring Türkiye with my rock-music project Black Sea Storm. Right now I am in Van. Tomorrow I am going to Yüksekova in Hakkari. So far the entire tour has been amazing! I really recommend the Black Sea region and the southeast of Türkiye. Trabzon, Artvin, Hatay, Diyarbakır, Mardin, Van are my favorites so far. I'll tell you more about Hakkari once I get there tomorrow inşallah. :)
Bern to Turkey my first time in the last July as a lone traveller. Being neither brave nor young anymore,l was utterly scared for the reasons why you explained in your videos. But Turkyie happened to be one of the best places l have visited until now,with the most loving and caring people,open minded ones either. I loved Istanbul and Kapadokya even more,such unique places 💗. Ofc there are bad sides there like everywhere,but their hospitality is amazing and it feels like one of the safest countries for me. Cannot wait to be back🤗. Thanks again for sharing your experience with us,l just subacribed to your channel rn😊.
Ülkemizin 71 ilini gezmiş biri olarak şunu söyleyebilirim ki, her yerinde gerçekten ayrı doğa güzellikleri ve tarihi eserleri bulunmakta. O yüzden doğusundan batısına, kuzeyinden güneyine belli şehirler seçip (gezilecek, görülecek yerleri diğerlerinden daha fazla olan) gezmek daha doğru olur ülkemizdeki güzellikleri tanımak için. Örneğin,Ankara,Nevşehir, Trabzon, Rize, Çanakkale, Bursa, Balıkesir, Antalya, Mersin, İzmir, Muğla, Kars, Urfa, Mardin gibi...

nearly everywhere in Turkey there is a place worth to see.... visit the Lavender- and Rosefields near Isparta. Go to Cappadocia. See Konya and the famous Mevlana Museum, tomb of Rumi. Take a ship at the Daylan Delta to the famous Iztuzu beach and swim with the turtles. See the oldest temple at Göbekli Tepe, Van in the East of Turkey with its lake and the unique white cats with a blue and an orange eye, Mardin, city of three religions. Go to the North and feel as like beeing in Switzerland, see the Sümela monastery and so many more places....
Thank you for breaking the prejudices about Turkey and for honestly telling about the culture, religion and people here. I hope you come again soon. If you have spent enough time in the west, I recommend you to see eastern cities such as Cappadocia, Gaziantep, Mardin and Kars. Or you can visit the South side of Turkey, Antalya,Alanya,Mersin,Adana. Greetings from Turkey my friend 🙏🏽😇
Unfortunately , the Western world have never been friendly to Turkey or to Turkish people. The West hates everything Islamic regardless if it is Sunni , Shiite , Ahmadi etc.. It is a historical hatred that will never be cleaned from their heart. We should not listen to what they say because our religion is the cleanest, and the most just not only to humanity but also to animals. I was so proud when I did a DNA test couple of years ago and found out that 47% of my DNA is Turkish. I was more proud when I also found out the Sultan Abdel Hamid the second , in 1912 , signed on our family tree that we are one of the noblest families in Palestine. In 2019 , My family and I went to Istanbul for 3 weeks and we loved it. I felt we were home. Therefore, In Sha'Allah after I retire I will be moving from USA to Turkey.
I'm living in Turkey. Most women don't wear hijab. We can wear short skirts and shorts and especially female tourists can dress as they want. Any women dont have to wear scarf. We are free. In Turkey, a lot different foreign people travel and live. We love foreign people. NO CAMEL AND NO DESERT HERE 🤣🤣 The venues are open until late at night, the streets are lively. Specially, night life does not end in İzmir and in İstanbul. There are a lot of nice places. I can suggest special and amazing places: İzmir-City Center-Çeşme, Muğla- Marmaris-Fethiye, Antalya-Center- Side-Alanya-Kemer-Kaş-Manavgat, İstanbul, Denizli-Pamukkale, Kayseri-Cappadocia, Çanakkale, Ankara, Urfa- Göbeklitepe etc. If you discover different places, you can go Balıkesir-Ayvalık, İzmir-Selçuk, Uşak-Canyon, Aydın -Canyon, Mardin, Gazi Antep, Trabzon, Eskişehir, Bursa. You can do tours: Ege, GAP, Karadeniz, Doğu Anadolu.☺☺
What you expect in Europe you will find in Turkiye, that is what we found when backpacking around the world. The people are really friendly and kind. Would love to go back. Thank you for your honesty.

Im an Australian born with Turkish heritage and you have hit the nail on the head. As a predominantly Muslim country, Turkey is very unique and never do I know that religion is the forefront but rather hospitality and humility. Although as the years go by the social construct of the community is changing like any country. I am very happy that you have met and experience the true essence of real Turkish kindness and hospitality. Smiles

I am so glad to hear that you had great experiences and a positive opinion of Turkey. Hope to see you back in Turkey soon!
By the way, I live in Istanbul. There is a hill called "Sevda Tepesi" / "Love Hill" on the Asian continent of the city. You should definitely go there. Then you can understand why Istanbul is called "The Capital of the World" 😉
Eğer yabancılar için turistik olmayan güzel bir yer görmek istiyorsan Bolu'ya gelebilirsin. Gölcük, Yedigöller, Kartalkaya, Abant, At yaylası, Kızık Yaylası, Akkaya Travertenleri, Gerede, Mudurnu, Mengen, Karacasu Kaplıcaları, Seben, Sülüklü Göl, Çubuk Gölü, Aladağ Yaylaları... Bence değeri bilinmeyen bir şehir. Sonbaharda veya kışın gelmenizi tavsiye ederim ama yine de her mevsim ayrı güzel doğası.
As a Turkish, thank you for your kind comments. I recommend you to go Gaziantep, food is very delicious, people are friendly. I recommend you to try Baklava over there. There are many historical places, you can enjoy. Also of course south west coast is amazing. I hope, you will enjoy your adventure.
As a Balkan Turk, I recommend you to visit the Thrace region of Turkey. The founding foundations of the country were laid here. There is so many things to learn about us

I recommend you to go to Samsun on your trip to Turkey. You should definitely visit the samsun vezirköprü şahinkaya canyon. A great place. You just have to search the internet. Also, Samsun Bafra Bird Sanctuary is worth seeing. And while you are gone, you should visit Samsun Atakum Beach and eat Bafta Pita and eat Ballıbaba ice cream.

I am happy for your experience. I am English and have lived in South West Turkey for 22 years. All of your observations are accurate. When at the beginning I worked in tourism I would always say to guests on holiday, that although they may have felt sceptical at first, their experiences would guarantee their return! Too many places of interest and beauty to list here for the adventurer, while all areas are diverse and different, but you will always receive a welcome wherever you visit.

Hello, I live in Turkey. Thank you for this beautiful video. I want to be friends with you with my love
Hey folk! I am from Turkey, Izmir. I can really suggest you to visit warm places like Antalya and Cesme/Alacati for turistic places. Also Mugla has very beautiful sea and you can see caretta caretta (sea turtles) in Iztuzu Beach since its a nesting place for them. Another turistic place is Kapadokya but everybody know there already. If you want to explore even more than you can try city called Rize in the north side for Ayder Yaylasi and Uzungol which has incredible forest nature and food (muhlama, sarma, local music and dance/horon). Also you can visit city called Van for its lake and incredibly rich breakfasts. I suggest wherever you go try Van breakfast which also there in the big cities like Istanbul (Moda Van Kahvalti). And dont forget to try raki (local alcohol) and local fresh fish (levrek/cipra) but you need to do it in a restaurant by the sea. These restaurants are called meyhane and they have very popular local and global sides E.g. Kopeoglu / Tekmil Fava / Borulce / Kalamar / Pacanga etc. You should also try some kebap in places like Mersinli Cigerci Apo which is very popular again for the different kind of sides. Actually there are also too many other delicious food to eat and even the local families can do some of them for you like Borek/Sarma/Manti etc. Our local non-alcoholic baverages are Ayran and Salgam which are salty liquid yougurt and spicy pickle juice respectfully and without pulps. Food culture is very rich in Turkey since its inherited from the Ottoman Empire and its sill very unknown for the globe. And it is for every taste whether you are vegan or non-vegan. There are also various types of deserts you should try like Baklava/Kunefe/Kazandibi. Well if you worry about weight gain then you can swimm for sport lol. I am wishing you the best travel byes!
We stayed in Turkey with our caravan for 2 weeks because of covid. In 2 weeks, maybe more than 100 people asked if we needed anything.

Thank you very much for your nice comment, best wishes...
We lived in Turkey for five years. We had four children and we all cried when we had to leave because our visas we're expiring. But the Turks won because they kept a good portion of our hearts with them. I breaks my heart to see how Western commerce is weaseling their way into their culture ( Macdonald's, Pizza Hut, Starbucks, etc.) . I hope that he Turks take advantage but do not allow those companies to change their culture. I hope that the Turkish government maintains a stance of allowing them to visit but not to own the land.
Unfortunately current goverment sells everything and we hate it
we always keep our culture from the beginning until now, and we wont, no worries ...
Here in Greece such companies have had a hard time competing with the local more traditional shops for the most part, and are mostly absent outside the capital.
I say this because Turkey shares a lot with us in those regards to my understanding(cuisine etc), so they will probably stand strong, especially outside the biggest couple cities.
Aw we missed you too come back again 😊
Well, we do take advantage of those chain restaurants but at the end of the day, no commercial power can beat our beloved cuisine.

Thank you for making this video. As a Canadian who married a Turk (met in London) whose business was then destroyed by the measures so we ended up moving to Turkey, I have told so many people that Turkey is misrepresented and is actually one of the best kept secrets. The Canadian government has it as a red zone (do not go, high risk) on its website. Why?! I feel safer In Turkey than I ever did in London UK or Toronto or Vancouver. And the Turkish people are warm and loving. I love this country, which is now my home, and encourage everyone to visit. For your travels, I suggest Termessos, a high ancient ruin that is like walking through an Indiana Jones movie set, as the jungle has swallowed the fallen temples. I also suggest the area around Şırınçe, because it is a lot like Tuscany and has the preserved traditional Turkish houses that were mostly destroyed. Enjoy!

Faleminderit❤
I am from Britain 🇬🇧
But my heart body and soul is in Turkey 🇹🇷
I'm kind of an introvert, but Turkey and it's people are actually therapeutic for me. If you share the moment in the now instead of the past, not only will you experience the joy of existence, but you will also be able to heal old wounds. Turkish people made me learn to trust into humanity again. (It's people - not the salesman) ^_^
This is so true... We only have so much time on this planet and we should't waste it.. we are all one community, one family and we shouldn't listen to the people who want us to be divided... life is so much fuller if you "experience the joy of existence".
I adore Turkey, and it’s people. So genuinely kind and respectful. I would go back today
I hope you have the chance to go soon.
It's really lovely in here 😀👍
I went to Turkey for a holiday and I loved it so much I went right back and stayed for 8 years :D its always in my heart and I miss it a lot.

Dahlton, life is short and living conditions constantly put obstacles in front of you to delay your ideal. My advice to you is to get on a plane this summer and come to Turkiye. Believe me, after that your life will change. You'll see so many beautiful places, taste so many interesting flavors, and meet so many good people, you'll never be the old Dahlton again. Because your view of the world will change.

Hi, I’m from Argentina and I’ve been living in Turkey for 5 years. I recommend you visit the Black Sea region (Kara Deniz). A few places there are Kure Mountains, full of beautiful untouched forests and canyons, Rize and Artvin for the yaylas (plateaus) in the middle of the mountains with majestic scenery.

We visited Turkey this last summer for the first time. We had no agenda, I had been learning the language slowly for 2 years and I found the people of Istanbul were mostly so grateful for me trying they overlooked how tourist we were. My husband and I never felt more safe. We made lifelong friends and hope to go back in the next 4 months or so. We have been to other countries but Turkey by far is our favorite!!!
Thanks for your nice words❤as a Turkish woman
Now imagine a Turk, living and born in Europe, already knowing how welcoming Turkey is, and while knowing this, has to endure a lot of low level racism and negative talking about their mother-land while growing up… while living there… And still not hating the country they are born in… and keep staying respectful towards the ppl and culture… Never being able to prove by talking they are misinformed…
Wish a lot more ppl saw this video…

Well, lets not pretend Turkey/Turkiye is immune to racism. Kurds are regularly stamped as "terörist", usually with no proper reason, while Assyrians and Armenians were wiped out of the country, those crimes still being denied by the government at official level. Armenophobia, Kurdophobia are heavily widespread and the MHP party (basically fascist ideology) gets more than 20% of the votes.
@@frankozrin5611 You dont know what you are talking about. Just from your comment, i can tell you have never been to Turkiye. In Turkiye you have Kurds that are Pop stars, Army Generals, Actors, so on and so forth. You are refering to the PKK which is a communist terrorist organisation that is on the US EU terrorist list. Lastly, Turkie has a large Armenian community living there.
dude you got me crying half way through...
Unfortunately , the Western world have never been friendly to Turkey or to Turkish people. The West hates everything Islamic regardless if it is Sunni , Shiite , Ahmadi etc.. It is a historical hatred that will never be cleaned from their heart. We should not listen to what they say because our religion is the cleanest, and the most just not only to humanity but also to animals. I was so proud when I did a DNA test couple of years ago and found out that 47% of my DNA is Turkish. I was more proud when I also found out the Sultan Abdel Hamid the second , in 1912 , signed on our family tree that we are one of the noblest families in Palestine. In 2019 , My family and I went to Istanbul for 3 weeks and we loved it. I felt we were home. Therefore, In Sha'Allah after I retire I will be moving from USA to Turkey.
Well Denize my freind dont let this worry you to much most of us know the about the lies we are being fed and i beleive most of this comes from the USA and beleive me this is one of the worst places to live and i have lived there.i feel sorry for the people they are fed lie after lie...I have been to Turkey many times and i found the people wonderful yes we all have bad eggs but for me Turkey is wonderful...so hey have a great life..

I’m Scottish however have travelled to Turkey around 10 times now, I highly suggest you visit the Temple of Apollo in Didyma. Not only is it one of the oldest historical ruins still standing but it is located in an area which has been maintained as a traditional marketplace with beautifully cultural heritage comprising, stalls, farms and bars/cafes where you can find incredible live music and delicious Turkish cuisine. We may even bump into you there as we’re travelling this month too! Safe travels and thank you for enlightening people on the misconceptions of this astounding country🇹🇷❣️
Hello Scottish friend. I recommend you to visit the Black Sea region. Its climate, geography and people are close to you. You can even see closeness in musical instruments
Bagpipe and Tulum .
I like Türkiye so much that I have visited it several times. The Turks have a great heart, they are so adorable, friendly, I adore culture, music, food. If you've ever been to Türkiye, I suggest you go to the Black Sea region. May God bless Türkiye and the nation.

Hey I am an Aussie living in Turkey! I would definetly reccomend Canakkale, a univercity city so everyone is young, musical and enjoys sport and surfing on the nearby islands of Goekcada and Bozcada, Feel free to hit me up if you are in canakkale and I can show you the old greek mountain village of Adatepe.
I absolutely second that recommendation!!! Part of my family live in that area. You would love the views, food and people in Adatepe, Behramtepe, Assos, Zeus's Alter, Temple of Athena and the entire Edremit Bay area via Izmir-Canakkale highway. There are many camping sites along the way for you and your van. If you end up in Canakkale and the islands, you can also visit the Galibolu National Park to learn about the epic battle of Gelibolu that took place during the WW1.
And a bit further in south, Kazdag mountain has good Camping places along side the river coming from the mountain. Then you can continue south to Ayvalık following the shore. Sarımsaklı beach is famous around that region. And after Ayvalık further south, there is Dikili. Some call it Maldives of Turkey. Pisa bay and Kalem island are natural beauty there. There are Camping places nearby for you to replenish. Wishing you fulfiling and joyful journey. My former flatmate was Estonian so as one of your song says from your singing revolution : Mingem üles mägedele :)
Ahh I live in Canakkale :D
Well he’s going to cross the border up in Edirne and 3-4 hours time should get them to Galipoli a tour, then jumping to the Anatolian side Çanakkale, Troy, Assos and down the coastline to Adatepe and Yeşilyurt 😙👌🏻 keep following the coastline down to İzmir, Aydin all the way to Fetiye that route is full off Historic sites and beautiful Aegean seaside small towns 🤙🏻 then inland to the eastern side Iskenderun, Antep, Urfa, Diyarbakır while seeing Geyiklitepe, Zeugma, Nemrut and more for a totally different type of history and culture and back from the Karadeniz shoreline for some amazing scenery 😉
Çanakkale is great - very laid back culture, good wine, great sardines!
I visited Turkey 7 years ago. It was damn beautiful. Foods? Oh my god, the foods are delicious. I am planning to go there again.

I just got back from Turkey! Loved it. It's a place I would come back to, there are still so many places I want to go there. And the hospitality and friendliness of the people was awesome. Food was great, Lots of beautiful scenery and places.
I am myself from Turkey, I grew up there and I had the best childhood with my beautiful people. We are just misunderstood as Turks. The interesting thing about my country is that if you go to west you will feel the touches of European cultures combined with Turkish culture. If you go to the east you will feel the eastern aura and the beauty of the starry nights while sleeping on the roof. If you go north, you feel the cold and aggressive waves of the Black Sea hitting the high cliffs and the greenest forests being home for bears and deers . If you go to the south you will get a good sunburn and see the nights full of dance and music. But the hospitality never changes. My beautiful country is just a bit tired of this prejudice and enmity that Europeans have against us. Love from Türkiye! Don’t hate without knowing

*Turkiye has everything. Entertainment, nature, rooted history, rich culture, various endemic plant species, rich underground resources, 4 season climate, all kinds of vegetation, first settlements, underground and metropolitan cities, delicious food, east-west spice mix effects, friendly people, hospitality, friendly animals. Every country has its own beauties, but Turkiye has all of those beauties. Our language, our flag, our anthems are unique. It has a variety of landscapes suitable for all types of travellers; There are snow covered hills, plateaus, valleys, canyons, temples, fairy chimneys, Kaçkar mountains, crater lakes, ancient places, historical monuments, sparkling beaches and 103 Unesco world heritage sites. Not to mention corners of paradise such as Istanbul, Ankara, Cappadocia, Pamukkale, Izmir, Trabzon, Rize, Muğla and Antalya! Almost the center of the world; It is a transcontinental country that acts as a bridge connecting Asia, Europe and Africa. Turkiye is the most strategic and richest country in the world in terms of geography.*

The future of my non-production Europe is dark. Working nations that produce will be strong in the future. I believe that very good days will come for Turkey. Only when inflation improves, the problems will all end
Turkey is genuinely an hidden gem in the world we live in! People would rather want to go to London, Paris, or New York but I would rather want to visit Istanbul, Izmir, or Ankara. I'm so glad I came to love the Turkish culture, language, and people!

@@katehe1en224 what the fuck Kate? I don't care about Quran and what your stance about is but u are committed nothing spam. I am from Turkey so you might post this shit to me but a lot of people in Turkey simply don't care about this, religion etc. Some of us are born with this religion as you probably are with Christianity, but also Bible has some big BS in it as well. Don't deny Ive been living in a western country for 30 years. Also Christianity is almost as guilty as İslam with wars and blood
@@blutao Who told you I'm a Christian??🤥 I am Turkish and I am against Islam because Islam is against Turks and Arabs throughout history have killed Turks
@@katehe1en224 so what's your purpose posting all that in here? This video has nothing to do with Islam, the man is literally sharing his experience about Turkey and people he met while there
@@katehe1en224 and also you sound ignorant to say that ' İslam is against Turks ' while 99% of Turks are Muslim and Islam is still the chosen religion regardless whether it was forced initially. You think you are smart or being smart trying to put focus on being Türk over being Muslim, but i have bad news for you. Being Türk isn't so special just as being Muslim isn't either. After all most Turks now identify their religion as İslam, every corner of the country is filled with mosques, so what you are after is a big BullShit.. Yeah sure you can convince all the Turkish nation to rid itself of Islam, i am for it while you are at it, convince them also rid itself from being Türk...
Of course there are bad bloke in TRK, as in everywhere, but people in TRK are generally very kind, helpful, and with a great sense of humor. People there are indeed extremely generous and hospitable outside the cities, even to strangers. Your video is spot on and I am so happy you made it. I hope more people in Europe see this video.

Welcome to Turkey again. If you are interested in history, you can visit Safranbolu, which is on the UNESCO world heritage list with its Ottoman houses. There is also a canyon nearby... If you love nature, you can visit Ulubey Canyon, the world's 2nd largest canyon, in Uşak. If you go to Manisa Kula, you can also visit the geopark there. There are also fairy chimneys there. Also, Kaş and Kalkan is a perfect sea holiday destination
Wonderful!
Thank you for the recommendation!
I visited most of these places last time and they are amazing.
Such unique nature 😁👍.
But I will mark the rest down on my map.
Sending my best wishes from Estonia 😀👌
@@WildVikingTravels Also Phrygian Valley in western Turkey might be a good option for van trip. It is a significant and amazing historical site which is a sister of Cappodocia but older and underrated as yet little known. It would be great option to introduce in the youtube as no much international TH-camrs visited as a less touristic destination due to lack of advertisement.

So lovely to watch your impressions about 🇹🇷 I’ve lived there for 17 years, finished my medical school, as an Asian I’ve never felt that I was different from Turkish people, it’s the best place to live and have great relationships with people!
I recommend you to visit islands close to İstanbul, Efes- old greek city and village Sirince in Izmir, Sumela monastery up in the mountain in Trabzon, Old city and Mor Gabriel monastery in Mardin. Have great time again in 🇹🇷😄
I have been going to Turkiye almost every year since 2014 and I have been impressed by the kindness and hospitality of the Turkish family the country offers a lot.
Have you forgotten about the ottoman empire?
İyi bari sen arada topraklarına dönüyorsun.
I didn't perceive the ideas of tourists visiting our country about people living in Turkey as "they are very warm-blooded, helpful" until I went abroad, which seemed a little exaggerated to me. But I was wrong, I think it seemed ordinary to me because I was used to the culture in which I was born, I realized this during my visits to other countries, we are really warm-hearted and sincere helpful people at the core of our culture. So we are grateful for your thoughts, we always welcome you to our country🙏
Except for your thieving shop and restaurant owners
Yeah I kinda dont get it either. I have never been out of turkey before. Things just seem... ordinary to me? Could other countries really be that cold in manners? I mean... people are good and bad everywhere and no country is black or white. Maybe its about our culture of hospitality?
@@nightshade2826 I believe in the fact that there are good and bad people in every country. I have not said that people who are not sincere are bad people, I am not saying that we are sincere and we are good in the same way. People can be more warm-blooded, more hospitable or colder than the culture in which they were born. As you said, we are more hospitable than usual, so I say that I am used to it. So this may be good for me, but it may not be good for someone else, I respect it, someone who grew up in another culture in another country may not like this intimacy, which is normal.
@@mervehediyeozen8141 Oh I agree! And honestly, thank you for saying that not everybody may like the intimacy. I am one of those people, being extremely shy. So I would be one of those who are colder than the culture they were born in.
@@nightshade2826 You can be sure that I absolutely understand you :) I absolutely support the view that no one should have to be sincere. Besides, it's just as normal that you're shy, it's not a problem. Thank you for sharing your ideas! :)
I am not from Turkey, but I had a great time traveling from Istanbul along the Dardenelles (the European side) to Gallipoli and Troy, then by ferry back to Canakkele on the Asian side, on to Ayvalik, where you can stay in a,stone house built into the sea, Cesme, Kusedasi and Bodrum. While these are touristy, its the heart of the people in the small villages in between that will warm you most.

Mine too!
I've spent a lot of time in Fethiye, I know a lot of British retirees who live there. On the whole, they have a very low opinion of Turks, rarely eat Turkish food, drink Turkish coffee, or make much effort to speak the language. It's quite sad to see, some spend most of the time complaining about the prices, the weather (it's either too hot, too cold or too wet) or the Turks in general. They are paranoid about getting ripped off or robbed. Whenever I go there, I always make an effort to speak as much Turkish as I can, spend as little time as possible at places frequented by Brits, and eat at places the locals eat in. I love Turkey, and plan to stay there long-term in the near future.
Are you Turkish?
@@xxyy5431 No, I'm British.
♥️♥️🇹🇷
Real Brit always complain is to cold or to hot or to rainy, I live in London.
Well, having been the victim of several dirty businessmen, I can say that their "paranoia" about getting ripped off is justified. That was the one thing that ruined the country for me. This is why you will never get mugged in Turkey, because they will rob you another way. But to be fair, I think this is just how British people are, because they do the same thing in Spain. They set up their own little enclaves, and don't even bother learning Spanish. So I think this is just how they are. It's funny though, because these the same people who complain that immigrants don't assimilate in their country.
I LOVE the English by the way, but I am simply stating facts here.
We live in Istanbul and we ADORE the Turkish people! You are so right about their kindness.
We drove for 5 weeks along the Black Sea coast last summer and suggest that you make some time to go there. The Black Sea was lovely to swim in. Slightly inland are amazing mountain roads and hazelnut farms.
We will be following your journey to Japan! Good luck!!!
Xoxo 😘
A little tip; If you are not a good swimmer, be careful while swimming in the Black Sea and ask local people about suitable beaches to swim.Local people will be happy to assist you.
@@onderdurak1472 thank you, kindly for your safety tip!

Absolutely true. I've spent a 6 weeks vacation in İstanbul and izmir. Absolutely magic.
i am not a Turkish citizen, yet I'm now a student in Turkey, particularly in Mersin province, it's south of Adana, East of Antalya and Southeast of Konya. i'd be happy to show you around someday, that is, if you'd decide to come to Mersin. It's warm, if not hot, all the time, if not always, haha! even in the winters, it's never been below 0, always somewhere around 3-14 celsius. one thing to note about Mersin is that, it's a city of beach, tranquility, and quietness.
I agree with you completely! I have been to Turkey twice, and look forward to returning. A lovely country, and truly lovely people.
This year i was in Halfeti. I had a really nice time. The nature is amazing, there are some local birds that you can see just in Halfeti, food is great, people very friendly. It is in southeast Anatolia but you feel yourself in Mediterranen. 2. Kahta near Adiyaman and mt. Nemrut really nice. A lot of history and pure nature.
My wife and I moved to Turkey from the UK 2 years ago and we love it. You do get pushy vendors in the markets more. We live in the Fetiye area its amazing
I guess you have been to Dalyan?

Since I am Turkish, I should do as requested. I think Cappadocia is really well known. One of my favourite places in Turkey is the Sümela Manastırı (monastery) in Trabzon. Also, Hatay (Antakya) is one of the best places to try all kinds of food and has the oldest church in Anadolu. Hope this is useful to someone.

I 1000% agree with you. Thanks for getting a positive picture and bringing this video to the world. I personally love Turkiye and recently visited this May. The western media does not like Turkiye and I knew it from get go. First time I visited Turkiye in 2014 I compared my notes both on history and culture from Turkish Islamic vs western media perspectives. They are day and night apart. It’s not only the places are beautiful and rich in history, no where in my life I have met such friendly and helpful people. I am still connected with many who I had no idea who they were before my visit, but we chat and talk to each other despite language barriers.
So true! A dear friend of mine is a Ukrainian Turkish guy, and he is one of the most gentle and warmest people I've ever met 💯

nearly everywhere in Turkey there is a place worth to see.... visit the Lavender- and Rosefields near Isparta. Go to Cappadocia. See Konya and the famous Mevlana Museum, tomb of Rumi. Take a ship at the Daylan Delta to the famous Iztuzu beach and swim with the turtles. See the oldest temple at Göbekli Tepe, Van in the East of Turkey with its lake and the unique white cats with a blue and an orange eye, Mardin, city of three religions. Go to the North and feel as like beeing in Switzerland, see the Sümela monastery and so many more places....
Thank you for breaking the prejudices about Turkey and for honestly telling about the culture, religion and people here. I hope you come again soon.

Greetings from Turkey my friend 🙏🏽😇
Unfortunately , the Western world have never been friendly to Turkey or to Turkish people. The West hates everything Islamic regardless if it is Sunni , Shiite , Ahmadi etc.. It is a historical hatred that will never be cleaned from their heart. We should not listen to what they say because our religion is the cleanest, and the most just not only to humanity but also to animals. I was so proud when I did a DNA test couple of years ago and found out that 47% of my DNA is Turkish. I was more proud when I also found out the Sultan Abdel Hamid the second , in 1912 , signed on our family tree that we are one of the noblest families in Palestine. In 2019 , My family and I went to Istanbul for 3 weeks and we loved it. I felt we were home. Therefore, In Sha'Allah after I retire I will be moving from USA to Turkey.
I'm living in Turkey. Most women don't wear hijab. We can wear short skirts and shorts and
especially female tourists can dress as they want. Any women dont have to wear scarf. We are free. In Turkey, a lot different foreign people travel and live. We love foreign people.
NO CAMEL AND NO DESERT HERE 🤣🤣
The venues are open until late at night, the streets are lively. Specially, night life does not end in İzmir and in İstanbul. There are a lot of nice places. I can suggest special and amazing places:
İzmir-City Center-Çeşme,
Muğla- Marmaris-Fethiye,
Antalya-Center- Side-Alanya-Kemer-Kaş-Manavgat,
İstanbul,
Denizli-Pamukkale,
Kayseri-Cappadocia,
Çanakkale,
Ankara,
Urfa- Göbeklitepe etc.
If you discover different places, you can go Balıkesir-Ayvalık, İzmir-Selçuk, Uşak-Canyon, Aydın -Canyon, Mardin, Gazi Antep, Trabzon, Eskişehir, Bursa. You can do tours: Ege, GAP, Karadeniz, Doğu Anadolu.☺☺
What you expect in Europe you will find in Turkiye, that is what we found when backpacking around the world. The people are really friendly and kind. Would love to go back. Thank you for your honesty.
This is well said!

hey, i want to thank you for this video. it is so special to see a person proving the whole western media that turkey is not full of that stereotypes. i am so happy that you enjoyed your time here! also, thank you for collecting the wastes on the beach! we won’t forget your contributions to our country! much love and respect from giresun, a city in the black sea region of turkey!
Hey Joe, we have met when you were travelling through Balıkesir and you were talking about how interested you were to discover the rest of Turkey as it has just been the first few days of your journey when we met. I am so glad to hear that you had great experiences and a positive opinion of Turkey. Hope to see you back in Turkey soon!
Heyhey!
Yes, my experience in Türkiye was amazing and I can't wait to visit again in few weeks!
Sending my best wishes to you from Estonia 😊!
By the way, I live in Istanbul. There is a hill called "Sevda Tepesi" / "Love Hill" on the Asian continent of the city. You should definitely go there. Then you can understand why Istanbul is called "The Capital of the World" 😉
@@remonn I write "By the way" because this comment is a continuation of my previous comment 🤦🏻♀️

Farklı kültürleri merak etmemiz çok takdir edilesi bir davranış. Ülkemize geldiğiniz için ve söylediğiniz güzel sözler için teşekkürler ☺️
Eğer yabancılar için turistik olmayan güzel bir yer görmek istiyorsan Bolu'ya gelebilirsin. Gölcük, Yedigöller, Kartalkaya, Abant, At yaylası, Kızık Yaylası, Akkaya Travertenleri, Gerede, Mudurnu, Mengen, Karacasu Kaplıcaları, Seben, Sülüklü Göl, Çubuk Gölü, Aladağ Yaylaları... Bence değeri bilinmeyen bir şehir. Sonbaharda veya kışın gelmenizi tavsiye ederim ama yine de her mevsim ayrı güzel doğası.
Dear Joe this is perfect advice.
Guzel tavsiye Göynük ten selamlar
Kışın çok soğuk olmaz mı bolu?
Bende Boluluyum, Boluda en çok sevdiğim köylerdeki hava durumu. Öğlen terleme yok gece soğuk.

As a Turkish, thank you for your kind comments. I recommend you to go Gaziantep, food is very delicious, people are friendly. I recommend you to try Baklava over there. There are many historical places, you can enjoy. Also of course south west coast is amazing.
I hope, you will enjoy your adventure.
As a Balkan Turk, I recommend you to visit the Thrace region of Turkey. The founding foundations of the country were laid here. There is so many things to learn about us

The Qur'an: The first commandment 'read'
The Bible: The first commandment is 'love'
Please read and learn a little. So that the world can be a better place
@@Lunar-xr5mc The first command of the Jews says to keep them alive, they keep the Israelites alive. The Christians also say to love the first commandment, they love Jesus. The first commandment of the Muslims is to read but not to read the Quran🥵 It says to read the prayer in Muhammad🥵 That is mean the God does not want him to pray for himself, but he wants it for Muhammad🥵 PUAGAGAHAHA
Kate, I think you don't know about religions and history.

Thank you for being real about Turkiye and it's people. Even though there are so many palaces to see other than the places

You have to go to Sarıkamış, Kars to see beautiful ski resort, forests and the wild life including the bears, which visit the garbage zone every evening. Also they were documented by National Geo before

I recommend you to go to Samsun on your trip to Turkey. You should definitely visit the samsun vezirköprü şahinkaya canyon. A great place. You just have to search the internet. Also, Samsun Bafra Bird Sanctuary is worth seeing. And while you are gone, you should visit Samsun Atakum Beach and eat Bafta Pita and eat Ballıbaba ice cream.
This Western person is amazing and said the truth. Unfortunately , the Western world have never been friendly to Turkey or to Turkish people. The West hates everything Islamic regardless if it is Sunni , Shiite , Ahmadi etc.. It is a historical hatred that will never be cleaned from their heart. We should not listen to what they say because our religion is the cleanest, and the most just not only to humanity but also to animals. I was so proud when I did a DNA test couple of years ago and found out that 47% of my DNA is Turkish. I was more proud when I also found out the Sultan Abdel Hamid the second , in 1912 , signed on our family tree that we are one of the noblest families in Palestine. In 2019 , My family and I went to Istanbul for 3 weeks and we loved it. I felt we were home. Therefore, In Sha'Allah after I retire I will be moving from USA to Turkey.
I am happy for your experience. I am English and have lived in South West Turkey for 22 years. All of your observations are accurate. When at the beginning I worked in tourism I would always say to guests on holiday, that although they may have felt sceptical at first, their experiences would guarantee their return!
Too many places of interest and beauty to list here for the adventurer, while all areas are diverse and different, but you will always receive a welcome wherever you visit. Good luck and enjoy your travels
