Where to exchange currency for Turkish lira in Bodrum?
Based on 2 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 4 days ago
TL;DR
Use local currency exchange offices (döviz) — they're widespread in Bodrum and offer better rates. Paying in USD at supermarkets like Migros is possible but you'll get change in lira at a bad rate.
