Re: prices in bitez

1 lira is around 50p in UK money (I'm guessing you are from the UK?).

I didn't find Turkey massively cheaper than the UK, apart from public transport costs.

Turkish coffee around 1-1.5 TL, small beer 3ish, main course perhaps 10+ (obviously depends massively on what you eat and where).

I'd take what you would normally spend in a week on food & wine etc with perhaps a bit extra if you don't normally eat out much.

But why not take some lira (and some GBP, which you can change if you wish....am assuming you are from the UK again!) and then use your card to get more out of an ATM if you need it? Make sure you tell the card provider you will be in turkey before you leave though.

Taking less and then exchanging more if you need it (or using your card to withdrw fomr an ATM) is more sensible than exchanging lots of money which you may not actually use.
