Turkey DECEMBER 07Country forums / Eastern Europe & the Caucasus / Turkey | ||
Hi!! | ||
December is the worst time of the year to visit Turkey. For one thing, it gets dark about 4:30 PM in the afternoon. Second, Turkey gets most of its rainfall from November to March, so you can plan on getting wet most of the time. I don't know what your schedule is like: From your profile, you may not have done much planning. It's hard to enjoy the surroundinging when you are drenched in rain most of your tour. | 1 | |
You'll have problems finding a hotel in Konya as this is Rumi festival time - 6 - 17 December. As this is the 800th anniversary of Rumi's birth every place is likely to be fully booked. | 2 | |
muxulaki - please ignore mcunsal. He's just joined this board, made two postings - and they're both to 'lone female travellers'. | 3 | |
