Should I rent a car in Turkey with Zest Car Rental?

Hiring a car in Turkey offers you the freedom of exploring parts of the country only accessible by car. Turkey is home to an overwhelming number of archaeological sites, the legacy of its rich and troubled past. Examples of Greek and Roman architecture rub shoulders with Hittite, Urartian, Phrygian, Hellenistic, and Byzantine offerings whilst there are also a number of more classical attractions too. 

Hop in your rental car and discover Turkey's unique natural beauty with a visit to Pammukale, otherwise known as the 'Cotton Castle'. This wonderful sight is comprised of petrified waterfalls and terraced basins and one of the most stunning sights in Europe.

If you know anything of Turkey's ancient sites, you will probably recognise the name Ephesus. The ruins here are in exceptionally good condition with the library and amphitheatre the most impressive.

Spend some time enjoying the fabulous weather and gorgeous beaches with a day or two of relaxation in one of the many coastal resorts. Ölüdeniz is an especially popular choice with its gorgeous beach. Alternatively, make your way to Dilek Peninsula National Park, found halfway between Izmir and Bodrum.

Istanbul is absolutely brimming with things to see and do and a hire car is a great way to get around the city during a short visit. Shop until you drop at the Grand Bazaar, the largest covered market in the world! Afterwards, take in the sights of Hagia Sophia, Sultan Ahmed Mosque (Blue Mosque), and the Basilica Cistern.
