Spilling across the border of Asia and Europe, Turkey is a rare meeting point of cultures, history, and beauty. With Pinoy Tourism, you’ll experience this nation beyond the postcards from Istanbul’s lively streets and spice-scented markets to the surreal landscapes of Cappadocia and Pamukkale. We’ll wander through ancient ruins, glide above valleys dotted with fairy chimneys, and soak in mineral-rich hot springs that gleam like snow. Between belly dancing evenings and the sweet temptation of baklava, Turkey reveals itself as a story of contrasts — where East meets West, and tradition meets charm.

      Our top 5 things to do in Turkey

      Dine to the beat of Turkish folk and belly dancing

      Let the music pull you in as you experience an unforgettable night of Turkish rhythm, dance, and energy. It’s more than entertainment — it’s a centuries-old art form that embodies Turkey’s spirited culture.

      Visit the House of Virgin Mary, Mt. Koressos

      A quiet stone house nestled in the hills near Ephesus, believed to be where Mary spent her final days. The site radiates peace and draws pilgrims and history lovers alike.

      Relax in the Cotton Castle Springs of Pamukkale

      Float in thermal pools that spill over terraces of pure white limestone. These surreal formations have soothed travelers for thousands of years — and the view alone is worth the journey.

      Wander the Spice Market in Ankara

      A sensory feast of color and aroma, Ankara’s bustling spice market is a paradise for food lovers. Shop for dried fruits, nuts, and exotic spices while soaking in the city’s lively charm.

      Take flight over Cappadocia

      Experience the dreamlike beauty of Cappadocia from above. As the sunrise paints the sky, hundreds of hot air balloons lift over a landscape of caves, canyons, and fairy chimneys — a true Turkish highlight.

      Best museums in Turkey

      Istanbul

      Istanbul Archaeology Museum

      Dive into ancient civilizations with one of the richest collections in the world. From Mesopotamian relics to Ottoman art, these halls bring history to life with incredible depth.

      Best food in Turkey

      Baklava

      Golden layers of pastry filled with pistachios and honey, baklava is pure indulgence and one of Turkey’s sweetest traditions.

      Pide

      Often called “Turkish pizza,” this oval-shaped flatbread comes loaded with cheese, spinach, or spiced meats. A street food staple that’s as comforting as it is delicious.

      Balik Ekmek

      Freshly grilled fish tucked in soft bread, served straight from boats along the Bosphorus. Simple, authentic, and utterly addictive.

      What to pack for a tour in Turkey

      What to Pack

      Modest Clothing

      Respect local customs when visiting mosques and religious sites by packing longer pants or skirts and tops with sleeves.

      A Good Camera

      Cappadocia’s balloons and Pamukkale’s terraces are once-in-a-lifetime photo ops — you’ll want quality shots.

      Old Swimwear

      The thermal springs of Pamukkale can be tough on fabrics, so pack something you don’t mind parting with.

      Reusable Essentials

      Travel light on the planet — bring refillable bottles, reusable bags, and eco-friendly toiletries.

      A Sense of Adventure

      From hammams to bazaars, Turkey rewards those who dive in with curiosity and courage.

      Other things to know before you go

      Some nationalities require a visa — check before departure. Expect hot summers and mild winters; Cappadocia can get chilly at night. Spring (April–June) and autumn (September–October) offer the best balance of weather and crowds.
