Things to Look Out For
The balloons fly at dawn, or not at all
Cappadocia's hot-air balloons launch in the still air just after sunrise, and the flight is cancelled the moment the wind picks up. Which it often does. Book your first morning, not your last, so a weather scrub leaves you a second chance. The 4am pickup is brutal and entirely worth it.
Istanbul straddles two continents
The Bosphorus splits the city between Europe and Asia, and the ferry across is the cheapest, best tour in town. Fifteen minutes, a glass of tea, the old skyline of minarets on one side and the new towers on the other. Skip the pricey dinner cruise once and just take the commuter ferry at dusk.
The bazaar price is the opening bid
In the Grand Bazaar and the spice market the first number is theatre. Expect to settle around half, and walk away once to find the real price following you out the door. Carpets, lamps and gold are where it matters; for tea and spices the haggle is gentler. Cash and a smile go further than a hard line.

Plan Your Timing
When to Go
Turkey reads best in the shoulder seasons. April to early June and September to October, when Istanbul is mild, the Aegean coast is warm but not scorching, and Cappadocia's balloon mornings are clear. July and August are hot, especially on the Mediterranean coast and the central plateau, and the sites are crowded. November to March is cool and wet in Istanbul and genuinely cold and often snowy in Cappadocia. Atmospheric, low-season, but pack for it.
