Turkey is a Middle Eastern country that shares its border with both Europe and Asia. Due to its unique geographical position, the diverse culture and rich history have shaped its nation to what we know of now. Therefore, without any further ado let’s learn what are the factors that should be considered while visiting Turkey.
What Is The Best Time To Visit Turkey?
Weather Condition
The major factor is weather condition which determines when should be the best time to visit Turkey. Turkey experiences all 4 seasons i.e. Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.
- Spring goes on from March To May. There are chances of rainfall during the Spring season. The weather temperature is suitable for the visit but the only inconvenience you might encounter is the rainfall. So, make sure you get the raincoat in a hotel or pack up waterproof shoes and a jacket in your bag.
- Summer goes on from June To August but the peak summer is during the end of July and the beginning of August. The temperature can go up to 30 degrees Celsius accompanied by humidity.
- Fall goes from September To November which is a perfect time to visit personally due to less crowd and suitable weather temperatures.
- Winter goes from December To February. There are instances of snowfall in Turkey during the Winter season. The temperature ranges from 10 degrees Celsius to 2 degrees Celsius and sometimes it can reach to negative.
Tourism Season
Turkey or especially Istanbul is one of the most visited countries in the world. Therefore, it is common for tourists to visit at certain months of the year. Tourism in Turkey is at its peak during the Summer season. However, if you want to enjoy the beauty of the country with less hassle and crowd then it is recommended to visit during Fall i.e. September to November. Even visiting before the Summer season is also recommended but make sure you are ready for random outbursts of water.
Flight and accommodation prices are fairly low during the Spring and Fall seasons. So, if you are looking for a budget trip then it is also recommended to visit in April, May, September, and October. The city will not be as crowded compared to the peak summer season when tourists come to enjoy the beautiful Antalya beaches.
