Emergency services rushed to the scene, Turkey's Interior Minister Mustafa Ciftci said on X.
"We are closely following the situation, in coordination with all the institutions concerned," he added.
A photograph published by the news agency DHA showed the coach lying across safety barriers with its windscreen smashed.
Turkish media reported that the drivers of both the coach and the truck had been detained as part of an investigation into the crash. Their health conditions were not given.
Several reports said the truck involved was a tow-truck. One outlet, Hurriyet, said early indications suggested it could have been driving on the wrong side of the road.
