Recent travel advisories from government agencies, however, urge travelers to exercise increased caution due to the potential risk of terrorism and the chance of sporadic political demonstrations. The U.S. Department of State issues a Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution advisory for most of Turkey, warning that terrorist groups remain interested in carrying out attacks, often targeting transportation hubs, busy public spaces, and locations popular with foreign visitors such as malls, cafes, and hotels. The Canadian government also highlights that large-scale protests have been occurring periodically since March 2025, mainly in Istanbul, which may prompt increased police activity. Demonstrations are best avoided, as participation—even inadvertently—can result in detention, especially if protests have not been officially sanctioned by Turkish authorities.
Both the U.S. and U.K. governments share a strict "do not travel" warning for areas within 10 kilometers of the Syria and Iraq borders, as well as for the southeastern provinces of Şırnak and Hakkari. These border regions remain volatile due to the ongoing threat of terrorist activity, cross-border clashes, and unpredictable security conditions. Travel to these regions should be strictly avoided. Roadblocks, routine ID checks, and temporary closures of roads or public spaces are possible in response to threat intelligence, most affecting border and southeastern provinces. Travelers who must travel overland in other parts of the country are advised to drive during the day, stick to major routes, and avoid public transportation in higher-risk zones.
Violent crime against foreigners is rare in Turkey’s tourism centers, though petty theft and pickpocketing can occur in crowded places. Standard urban precautions apply: stay alert with valuable belongings and avoid unlit or isolated areas at night. Travelers are urged to keep copies of important documents, adhere to local laws and regulations, and respect cultural customs to foster positive interactions and minimize legal complications. Publicly criticizing the government, even on social media, can lead to arrest under Turkish law.
Travelers should enroll in information programs like the U.S. State Department’s Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive real-time safety updates and facilitate emergency support if needed. Tourists should check that routine vaccinations are up to date, and consider additional immunizations like hepatitis A or B, especially when spending time in rural areas or sampling local foods.
In terms of broader safety, Turkey recorded robust tourism numbers in recent years, welcoming over 57 million visitors in 2023. This resilience and the visible emphasis on maintaining order and visitor safety have reinforced Turkey’s reputation as a compelling and secure travel destination. For those staying within recommended regions and facilities, using common sense, and keeping abreast of local news—as AXA Travel Insurance and Turkey Travel Planner both emphasize—Turkey offers a vibrant, welcoming, and largely trouble-free visit.
