Thank you so much for you quick response. I've been looking into this and I stumbled upon a travel blog that said that travelling during Kurban Bayramı could get a little challenging. 6/30/2019 11:48:55 am
We do not recommend the travellers to use public transportation during eid. Due to holiday period they will be packed with people. You need to book them in advance. The prices go double on eid period. We recommend you to rent a car. We do not recommend public transport during eid. You would be dissapointed.

I recommend you to do your bookings now. But you can prebook trains tckets to Denizli. You need to buy them while you are here. They will operate but will be packed with people.
