Buying a bike and formalities for a Turkey-to-Vietnam motorcycle road trip
by Maxence90325 · 2025-03-03 · 1 reply
Hi everyone,

I’d like to do a 5-month motorcycle road trip from Turkey to Vietnam. To do this, I’d like to buy a used bike locally. Do you know what steps are involved (especially the administrative ones for insurance, registration, etc.)? Are they quick? And do you know any reliable places to buy a used motorcycle?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

6-day road trip in southern and western Turkey: our experience
by Ideesdevoyag · 2025-02-09 · 0 replies
Hi everyone,

At the end of October 2024, we were lucky enough to spend a little over a week in Turkey—heading to Antalya. We then set off on a 6-day road trip exploring southern and western Turkey! Since planning a trip isn’t always easy, we’re sharing our itinerary and feedback on the different places we visited.

With a few photos, we hope to wow you 😎!

Here’s our loop itinerary starting from Antalya (a packed schedule, but it let us see so much):

Day 1 - Antalya (Kaleiçi, the historic center of Antalya) and Lara Beach



Day 2 - The Lycian site of Myra and the port of Kaş





Day 3 - The Turquoise Coast: Kaputaş Beach, the beach and dunes of Patara, the Saklıkent Canyon, the “ghost village” of Kayaköy, the ruins of Telmessos, and the Tomb of Amyntas







Day 4 - The Iztuzu Beach and the village of Şirince





Day 5 - The ancient city of Ephesus and the rural village of Birgi



Day 6 - Pamukkale and Hierapolis, then the seaside resort of Side before returning to Antalya (Day 7 in the morning).



So, does this make you want to take a little road trip in Turkey or what 😉?

For each visit, we’ve shared on our personal blog
https://ideesdevoyage.fr (type it directly into your address bar) the practical info you need to know (hours, prices, etc.), but most importantly, tips to make the most of your visit (where to park for free, how to avoid crowds, the best time for great lighting, must-see photo spots, and more).

We hope this itinerary and our tips will inspire you and help you plan your future trip to southern and western Turkey.

If you’d like to react or have any questions, don’t hesitate!

Renting a vehicle with a reliable agency in Turkey

Hi, we’re planning a 15-day road trip in mid-May. We’d like to rent a vehicle with a reliable agency (I’d seen CIZGI, but the reviews are really mixed). Rates with full insurance are around 1000 € or even more…) Do you know of a rental company that won’t rip us off? Thanks for your help. Praline33
Cappadocia itinerary: where to start?
by Guy1 · 2025-01-04 · 4 replies
Hello, We’re planning (two people in their early sixties!) a trip to Cappadocia next April for 9 days on site, and I need your help.

We land in Ankara. We’re planning 1 day in the capital, then taking a bus to Göreme. I’ve read that Göreme is very touristy and that it’s better to stay in Urgup (or elsewhere). What do you think?

From there, I’m not really sure how to organize our sightseeing "circuit" to avoid too much back-and-forth and keep it coherent… and that’s where I could use your help! We enjoy nature but also cities, a bit of hiking, and discovering unusual spots. Is it necessary to rent a car for more flexibility, or are public transport options doable without losing too much time?

Final question: Is 6 or 7 days in Cappadocia too long? If so, what would you recommend nearby without spending hours on a bus? We prefer seeing less but better, and without rushing too much. Thanks so much, and if you have any great budget-friendly tips, don’t hesitate!! Thanks.
From France to Mecca by Bike
by Baba14114 · 2024-11-18 · 17 replies
Assalamu 'alaykum, Hi everyone,

This thread is to echo some posts I’ve read on this forum while researching a potential bike trip from Annecy to Mecca. I came across several discussions where members mentioned being very interested in cycling to the holy city.

So, God willing, I plan to attempt this journey from January to June next year. The idea is to head to Turkey first, then assess the most reasonable routes based on the geopolitical situation around Palestine and as far as Iraq. Since the Turkish-Syrian border is closed, the only remaining (and I mean *only* remaining) overland option would be to go through Iraqi Kurdistan, Iraq, then Jordan, and finally Saudi Arabia.

That’s the first major challenge of this project. The second is timing. Due to the schedule, I’ll be starting in the middle of winter across Europe and finishing in the peak of summer in Saudi Arabia. If I’d had a choice, I’d have waited a good dozen years—but well, twelve years...

I won’t go into too much detail about the planned route in this post, but here are the broad strokes already set: Annecy to Istanbul. The rest is a bit too far ahead to map out properly. Crossing the Italian border via the Montgenèvre Pass. Straight through northern Italy as quickly as possible (not necessarily very pleasant) to reach Ljubljana. The fastest route through Croatia to spend as much time as possible in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Serbia via the Sandžak region. It crosses the Pešter plateau, which intimidates me at this time of year—its nickname, the "Siberia of the Balkans," says it all... Then Kosovo, North Macedonia, Greece, and Turkey.

I’m open to any advice on this itinerary. The choice was made to pass through as many Muslim-majority regions as possible. In the middle of winter in the Balkans, I don’t feel mentally up to bivouacking alone in that climate. So, I’ll try to find accommodations in mosques or even with locals as much as possible.

That’s the project in a nutshell. The big catch—some of you may have already noticed—is that I’m doing this solo. Yet, this is strongly discouraged by our Prophet—peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. So, I invite anyone interested in joining this project, whether closely or from afar, to reach out and contact me. Any contribution is welcome, whether it’s company for the whole journey (one can always hope!) or just part of it. Advice, contact suggestions, places to stay, and information about Hajj or Umrah are also appreciated.

Thanks for reading this far. I’ll try to check my VoyageForum account from time to time to see if anyone has responded to this thread and will happily reply to your messages and questions.

Take care, Assalamu'alaykum.

Mauvaise impression de GO Voyages
by Fred1906 · 2020-08-29 · 3 replies
bonjour, juste pour rapporter la mauvaise impression que m'as fait l'agence go-voyage ; j'ai reservé 2 billets pour Istanbul en juin 2020 avec eux , hier il m'ont avertis que le vol était annulé, ce matin le 29/08 ( nous devions partir le 4/09), j'ai donc demandé un remboursement , j'avais souscris une assurance, et j'ai eu la surprise de m'entendre dire qu'il gardaient 75€ de frais de dossier, et que le remboursement interviendrait dans les 3 mois ! il vaut mieux passer directement par la Turkish airline a Genéve , ils sont moins cher, joignable, et délivre des tickets par telephone, et rembourse intégralement en cas d'annulation, sérieux , quoi ! si qq , à besoin des coordonnées , je les donne sans problème , j 'habites vers Geneve , mais j'imagine que la Turkish a Paris , ça marche aussi , en tout cas éviter ces gangsters de go voyage... avez vous eu aussi , des problèmes avec eux ? merci Fred🏴‍☠️
