Hi everyone!
I've never done interrail and I need some advice. I'm gonna travel to Turkey next summer to take part in a voluntary project so I wanted to spend some time travelling around the country. As I'd have to take night trains, I'm not sure if the Interrail Pass works for them or do I have to pay a supplement to have a bed. Will I have to pay a supplement if I buy youth pass? And if I buy adult 1st class pass? I'm really stuck thinking of what can I do, and I can't find any information. Thank you for your help!

do NOT buy an IR for travel only in TR. BTW_your also omitted to tell us which nationality you have.
In TR the TCDD run the trians. There is a very limited network, many major cities do not even have trains, and the cost of local tickets is very low-much lower as IR.
there is an enormous and very extensive BUSnetwork-also for long distance, that can bring you anywhere. There is no national company, but metro-turizm is well known and has quality buses.

Thanks for your answer. I'm spanish, by the way ;)
I thought an IR one country pass may be useful just because it's really cheap (39-80 euros), but just if you can travel by night train with it.

I just saw your post about 1 month pass (TREN TUR KART: [u]https://rail.cc/en/turkey-1-month-train-pass/f6156[/u] ) and I will probably buy it. Do you know where can I buy it?
