The Australian Government downgraded in 2018 its travel warning for Istanbul and Turkey to exercise a high degree of caution – (previously do not visit) It is still current the same as of September 2024.
We encourage all travellers, not just Australian tourists to enjoy all that Turkey has to offer travelers. The special bond that Australia and New Zealand share with Turkey on the Gallipoli Peninsula is just one reason to visit – the others are …. ancient sites…. sapphire seas on the Aegean and Mediterranean, amazing landscapes of Cappadocia ….. incredible Istanbul with its Byzantium and Ottoman monuments – Bosphorus; funky back streets and cafe culture – incredible food — OH and its FRIENDLY people…..
The lists goes on and on and on – so come visit us !!
