I'm sorry, I don't understand Arabic 🙂

@@a5adali how m7ch did u spend for petrol

​@@Jawaheri.london.87 it cost around £400 to get from London to Turkey.

@@a5adali diesel or petrol

@@Jawaheri.london.87 Petrol 2.5 litre hybrid engine.

Sounds amazing!

Salaam, I have a Toyota Highlander and it was averaging around 40 miles per gallon.

Hi, all recording was done on the mobile phone (Samsung S20).

Salaam, my UK sim had EU roaming included, so it was working all the way until we reached Turkey. In terms of hotels, I would recommend getting hotels outside the cities as they will be cheaper and will save time.

Salaam, there are no entry requirements for British passports. Other passports might have extra requirements. For the car, you need to make sure that the insurance is valid in each country that you drive through.

No you don't. No Carnet de Passage is required up until Turkey, you will need one if you want to enter any countries after Turkey, e.g Iraq, Iran etc.

When travelling, we did not plan on publishing the content on CZcams! We were only making videos for personal use.

@@a5adali ok

Salaam, I purchased Turkey car insurance as an add-on to my regular insurance in the UK from the insurance company that I am with before departure. I think this was valid for 60 days.

Hi, the route I took was essentially: Calais Frankfurt Prague Bratislava Budapest Bucharest Edirne This isn't the shortest route, but we had a few stops on the way!

Salaam, unfortunately, I didn't keep track of the road tolls as most of the time, the tolls were taken at toll stations on motorways.

Hi Muza, total cost was around £6k including petrol, accommodation, food and little bit of shopping. We are also family of 6.

How much just petrol

Hello Aydin, thanks for your comment. I travelled all around Turkey last year, but really enjoyed staying in Konya.

Yes, you are right - the salt deposited is calcium carbonate as supposed to sodium chloride, the salt that goes into our food. And the traventines definitely aren't as spectacular as you see on social media, but the views are, and the sunset was amazing!

Yes, it is a very nice hotel. When speaking to management, they told me it was built to be a 5 star hotel, but they decided to register as a 4 star as the legislation is much easier.

No problems at all. I had arranged insurance before travelling, they checked all documents and let us go.

@@a5adali Can you advise who you arranged Turkish Car insurance with please was it a UK based Company

It's an amazing experience and I would definitely recommend it. You need to plan ahead before you leave - use Google maps to plan your route.

We actually stayed at a hotel close to the Airport. We drove into the city centre every day and found a car park close to the Galata Tower to be convenient. We then used the tram to travel around within the city centre.

@@a5adali Did you go during the summer months? Is the parking easily available around the Fatih and Galata area? Do you remember the name of the parking by chance? Thanks.

Hi Robert, it's approximately a 5 hour flight. So we departed Manchester at around midday and arrived 7pm local time in Paphos.

Thank you for watching the videos. To be honest, I didn't do the filming for CZcams - to publish as a Vlog was an afterthought! I was driving the Toyota Highlander which has a 2.5 litre hybrid engine. Not the most economical but definitely worth the space when there are 6 people travelling.

Thank you 😀

Brother, check with your insurance company. Normally Turkey, Albania and Montenegro is not included in European cover. I had to pay extra - about £35 per country.

Yes, I agree!

Thanks 😃

I'm from the North East of England 🇬🇧

@@a5adali what is your origines ??

@@James-25 I was born in Newcastle upon Tyne, so this is my origin! My family originates from Pakistan, though.

Thank you 😃

Thank you Ayse, there's no reason why it shouldn't let you press 'like'

@@a5adali Thank you again Asad. I finally managed to get all my likes accepted. Its a good thing you went when you did.

Salaam alaykum brother, can you contact me via Instagram or Facebook, please? My username is a5ad.ali on both.

Thank you for your support

It was delicious 😀. Have you ever tried this dish?

Hi Craig, sorry I've been a bit slow in uploading the videos. The next one goes live tonight. Thanks for watching!
