In the last year, no currency has devalued more than the Turkish Lira. The U.S. dollar is worth 28.39 percent more this year than it was last year, in part due to the still-ongoing aftermath of the attempted coup during summer 2016 and uncertainty in the region surrounding still war-torn Syria. As a result, the prices of common tourist expenses, such as dining, transportation, and for the travel-savvy, the price of the ticket for your flight home, are lower than ever.
