Plane

When traveling larger distances, flying is generally preferable.  Flights are available and fairly inexpensive on a number of carriers such as: Turkish Airlines, Anadolujet, Pegasus Air, and Sun Express. Average fare prices can vary depending on season.  Find more information about Major Airports and Airport/City Codes. 

Bus

Thousands of modern, luxurious buses roar between Turkish cities and towns daily. This is how most Turks travel. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to get fare and schedule information, but you can make arrangements easily when you arrive in Turkey.  Departures are frequent, so you won't need advance reservations for most routes. Find more information about how to buy bus tickets, taking the bus from Istanbul, and a list of popular bus companies.

Car

If you are an experienced driver and want to have more freedom when traveling, consider renting a car in Turkey. People drive on the right side of the road. If you are not traveling in a group, flying could be a cheaper option due to petrol costs.

Transfer

Getting around Turkey can be tricky especially if you don't know the language. It can feel stressful trying to navigate from city to city or from the airport to your hotel. Taxis can end up being quite expensive due to traffic and distance, so taking a transfer is an excellent option. Not only is there plenty of room for luggage, but it can also be a very affordable option if traveling with others or as a family.

Train

The Orient Express is long gone, but Turkey is hard at work building an impressive network of high-speed trains which, within a decade, will link 15 cities holding half the country's population. A number of useful routes are already in operation.  

Older, conventional trains can also be useful on some routes (here's a map). They may be slower than the bus but offer more seating-room and comfort for less money.
