Know before you go

To avoid exchange fees, get some Turkish lira in your country.
During your time at the Grand Bazaar, please remember that this is primarily a tourist attraction, and prices are usually 2-3 times higher. If you particularly like something and would like to buy it, do not forget to bargain, as this is a sign of interest for the seller. They may significantly reduce the price to win you as a customer.
