A friend and I are planning to travel to Turkey in May or June of this year. Probably for 10 to 14 days and will see several cities. The preliminary itinerary is Istanbul, Gallipoli/Çanakkale, Troy, Izmir, Ephesus, Antalya (maybe), and if time allows either Ankara or Black Sea coast.

Any suggestions on something I'm missing? Are Edirne or Bursa worth seeing? Tips for traveling within Turkey? I know a bit about the dolmus system but any first hand experiences would help.

Istanbul is outstanding. That mosque in the pic is at Ortaköy. Just a couple of hundred metres from where the new-years-eve attack took place. Nice area.

Go to Princes' Islands. You get a boat from somewhere close to Galata bridge or the stadium.

I have also been recommended, if one has the money, to rent a private boat and go around the Marmaris.

Anyway. Turkey is huge and full of sights and nice people. You could spend years there (or at least I could). Just Istanbul alone could take months to get tired from.

For 10 days, your root is ideal. If you have 2 more weeks, i would say you to add Kapadokya and Bursa.

Turkey is completely safe for tourists, I was there during violent protests last year and both sides have completely no interest in you and leave you alone. In many ways there isn't a better time to visit too since prices have had to be lowered because nobody wants to go.

The one thing I'd say is that Istanbul isn't like most other cities where everything is sort of like shit you've seen before and it gets a bit boring and samey after a couple of days. You can legitimately spend near a week there and not be out of interesting things to do. I'd recommend not trying to squeeze as many things in as possible just so you can say you've been, since you won't actually do any of them justice, but obviously that's your decision.
