Basically the title. I know I can get a COVID test at the airport and at several hospitals/clinics, but in my experience the lines have been very long and it basically takes up half your day, so I'd rather buy a few and take them at home. Thanks!

You can search for "eczane" (pharmacy) to find one near your hotel. You might ask the hotel staff whether the eczanes will carry them.

Hmmm, update .... I'm reading that rapid COVID tests are not widely available in Turkey, in favor of PCR tests. Still, you might check ... I'm reading that some chemists (pharmacies) do carry them.

When certified lab tests were required for air travel in 2021 (and 2022?), the hotels could arrange to have someone come to administer tests. It only took a few minutes, and they sent me the results quickly.
These days I am not sure what the procedure is. The pharmacies in Turkey remind me a lot of the pharmacies in Europe, and I would imagine that you could buy take-home tests there.
