Common scam patterns
- Taxis. Drivers may attempt to overcharge visitors by tampering with meters or taking unnecessarily long routes. Always use BiTaksi or agree on a metered fare before getting into any cab. Tip: Use ride-hailing applications like BiTaksi or firmly establish the metered rate prior to departure.
- Inflated Bar Tabs. Visitors in nightlife districts can be handed unexpectedly high bar tabs at the end of the night, particularly in Kaleiçi. Travelers should exercise extra caution in nightlife areas after dark. Tip: Decline drinks from strangers and verify menu prices before ordering.
- ATM Distraction Tricks. Thieves use distraction methods around cash machines to compromise visitor transactions or card security. Petty scams of this nature are common in high-traffic areas. Tip: Remain vigilant and shield your PIN when using public ATMs.
Area notes
- Kaleiçi. This historic Old Town area features vibrant nightlife and attractions, though visitors should watch out for inflated bar tabs after dark.
- Alanya. A popular coastal destination and resort city set along Turkey's southern Mediterranean coast.
