Essex england to fethiye turkey march april
I have managed to create a 20 day time slot for a long bike trip to ride and see a friend of mine in Fethiye Mugla Turkey. This will be a return journey so a flying visit of about two days stop over before saddling up and riding back home.
The timing is not perfect weather wise as it is from 22 March to 10 April. So my aim is to try and develop a route that will be the most suitable considering the time I am going. To this end I am thinking of travelling in as direct a line as possible through Holland, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Serbia, Bulgaria, Istanbul and on to Mugla. This route I believe will enable me to avoid the highest passes and as such road closures and snow. I am also considering maybe instead of via Istanbul to go via Izmir which will involve a ferry at Canakke. This will mean that most of my route in Turkey will be nearer the coast as opposed to a more inland route if I travelled via Istanbul.
I am aware that I will need to sort green card, visa and international license none of which I don't anticipate being a problem.
Any advice, views or alternatives to my initial plans would be most appreciated.
Thank you.
