I have traveled to Alanya with my family multiple times and have always had a nice trip. Beaches, restaurants and bars have average prices and are nice! With moutains around I had something to explore every day.

Hello, I have been in Turkey many times and first I fell for Side. It's a wonderful place! But then in Alanya I found friends (Turkish) of course) the thing is that if you get one real friend there Ups! you have a lot of them. Genuin Turkish people are really hospitable and caring.I feel really safe there.

In general we felt safe, but we stayed mostly in our hotel & the area around. The place was really touristic & nearby were a lot of opportunities to go shopping. The water sport and other activities were pretty expensive. But the people were very nice and welcoming.

Well, we're in Turkey :( But for the most part i would say antalya is one of the safest cities you can visit. Don't be alone at night (men). There are some drunk stupid people in the streets and might want to try to talk to you. Walk in the opposite direction of the cars.

Alanya is a small city, it’s pretty safe to travel alone. People here protect and look after each other. You can always ask for help to anyone and they will help you with anything. Beware of scammers, they may charge slightly higher prices than normal.
