Istanbul to Selcuk Destination Reviews
GP
Greg PNo toilet on the bus and it arrived in Selcuk over two hours late, after 2am. The good thing was that the cabin attendant provided very good service and he was helpful, even if his English was extremely limited

Marin LThe person serving drinks inside the bus was super kind. We are not Turkish and it was our first time experiencing buses in Turkey. He helped us finding our destination and since it was a night bus paid real attention not to wake my friend up when he was sleeping.
