Morning

Has anyone been to Turkey lately and are we better to take euros or lira? Or both?

Thank you 😊

It depends on what part you're going to.
Antalya area prefers euro, Dalaman area prefer sterling and lira.

I cant help with the lira/euro question, but I always used this site. Often- if you can collect it beforehand (NOT at the airport) it was the best when I used to travel.

The hotel shop we stayed at took euros, the supermarket took lira and the market took english pounds 🤣 they did convert for us though if we didnt have the right currency but i downloaded my own converter just to double check

I have always taken lira, never had an issue at all and in fact find things are slightly cheaper in lira as when they convert the price to £/€ is not always right. If you get it right in your head before you go that 100lira is x amount in £ you’ll be fine
