Karavan Park, opened by Antalya municipality in 2023 in Konyaaltı, continues to host motorhomes and caravans in autumn. Visitors from Turkey and Europe praise its infrastructure and proximity to Konyaaltı beach.
Sümeyra Aydın Kasap and Özgür Yiğit Kasap from İzmir began living full-time in a motorhome after Özgür had a bicycle accident that broke his jaw. They spent about a year preparing the motorhome for full-time living, installing a powerful electrical system and heating. They estimate a similar motorhome with modifications would cost around 1,600,000–1,700,000 Turkish lira today. The couple said rent costs disappeared after the move, but fuel, maintenance, insurance, water and electricity expenses remain.
Turkish manufacturer Tosbiq has introduced two compact caravans, the TK 240 and TK 260. The TK 240 has a body length of 2.40 m and a total length of 3.88 m, with an unladen weight of 640 kg and a maximum permissible weight of 1,000 kg (downrating to 750 kg is optional). The TK 260 is 20 cm longer (body 2.60 m, total length 4.11 m), with an unladen weight of around 800 kg and the same 1,000 kg maximum weight. Both caravans feature a kitchen, a wet room with a portable toilet, a diesel parking heater, a 12-volt refrigerator, a 40-litre fresh water tank, a 205-watt solar panel, a 100-Ah gel battery and an MPPT solar controller. Prices start at 16,999 euros for the TK 240 and 17,499 euros for the TK 260. The models are designed for off-grid use without relying on a campsite.
The Niğde Camping and Caravanning Association will host a gathering at Safir At Çiftliği from September 18 to 20.

An Australian family of four completed a 24-day trip around Turkey in a rented campervan with over 200,000 km on the odometer. The route started in Istanbul and followed the Aegean and Mediterranean coasts, with stops at Gallipoli, Ephesus, Cappadocia and Dalyan. A breakdown led to a local mechanic ordering a part from Izmir and fixing the van within a day. The family noted that campsites in Turkey are fewer and more rustic than in Western Europe, and that foreign visitors pay 200–300 dollars for major sites for a family of four.
