Bus

Turkey has a very improved bus network, but price and quality does change a lot company to company.

We recommend this bus companies:

• Kamilkoç: Kâmil Koç Otobüsleri A.Ş. is first bus company of Turkey and FlixBus partner. Also, you can get 10% off with your ESNcard. Use global.flixbus.com for transaction with euro and flixbus.com.tr for TL.
• Pamukkale
• Nilüfer

You can use obilet to compare bus companies but for your convenience use recommended bus companies.

Travel Tips:

• Arrive at the bus terminal with ample time before your bus departure, especially during peak travel seasons.
• Ensure you have your ticket and identification documents ready when booking and boarding your bus.
• Stay vigilant about your belongings and be aware of your surroundings, as the terminal can become crowded, particularly during busy travel periods.
• There might be police stops on the road have your passport with you, they are norm in Turkey so don't panic.
• Don’t leave your valuable belonging unattended 
• We recommend you buy your ticket beforehand.

Generally, you don't need paper ticket just take your seat in bus when asked if you bought your ticket, you can show your ticket from your phone.

Turkish people generally are willing to help but they can't if they don't understand you so don't hesitate about using translation apps.
