Travelers should, however, exercise a high degree of caution, as emphasized by government advisories from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. The main risks stem from the possibility of terrorist attacks and demonstrations, which have occurred in crowded areas in major cities such as Ankara and Istanbul. According to the Government of Canada’s travel.gc.ca website, Turkish military and government facilities, schools, places of worship, airports, public areas, and tourist attractions could be targets. Special vigilance is advised during religious holidays, sporting events, and public celebrations.
Some areas are subject to strict advisories. The U.S. State Department and UK Foreign Office explicitly urge listeners to avoid all travel to Sirnak Province, Hakkari Province, and any area within 10 kilometers of the borders with Syria and Iraq due to terrorism, armed conflict, and civil unrest. The Canadian government reinforces that security in southeastern provinces and border areas can be unpredictable. Turkish security forces may establish roadblocks and conduct proactive patrols and routine ID checks, so it is essential for travelers to carry their identification and visa documentation at all times.
While arbitrary detentions have reportedly occurred, especially in political contexts or during non-authorized demonstrations, these are not commonly reported in the main tourist regions. Criticizing the Turkish government, including via social media, could lead to issues with authorities, according to the U.S. State Department.
Crime rates in tourist zones remain low, but petty crime such as pickpocketing and scams—including those involving spiked food and drinks—do happen throughout Turkey. Travelers should avoid displaying signs of wealth, keep belongings secure, and purchase alcohol only from reputable, licensed venues, as there have been fatal incidents involving counterfeit and adulterated alcohol, especially methanol poisoning.
Listeners considering adventurous activities like mountaineering at Mount Ararat or participating in jeep safaris and water sports should book only with licensed providers and ensure their insurance covers emergency medical evacuation. Drownings have occurred on beaches and at pools, and the UK Foreign Office stresses understanding local flag systems and lifeguard instructions.
Recent news has shown that while regional tensions persist—particularly involving neighboring countries—Turkey has not been directly affected by active conflict, and conditions in major tourism corridors remain stable and inviting. According to turkeytravelplanner.com, terrorism incidents from previous years have decreased, and no significant events have disrupted tourism in the past two or three years.
To summarize, listeners are encouraged to enjoy Turkey’s remarkable history and hospitality, but to do so with vigilance, avoiding southeastern border areas and monitoring local news for updates on security conditions. Major tourist destinations are open, lively, and considered safe, but precautions regarding safety, security, and health should not be overlooked, aligning with the latest government advisories.
