Spread across the southern part of Europe and the western part of Asia, Turkey brings together a mix of both of these continents.

Holiday makers from the UK and other parts of Europe have long been visiting the package holiday resorts in the western region of Turkey along the Mediterranean and Aegean coasts. Favourites such as Gumbet, Bodrum, Icmeler and Antalya, to name but a few, cater for every type of visitor from families looking for safe beaches to let their children play, to the party crowds in search of late night bars and clubs.

Away from the resorts Turkey offers a plethora of ancient sites to explore which shouldn't come as a surprise for a country that is home to two of the seven wonders of the ancient world; the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus and the tomb of King Mausolus in Bodrum.

Outside of the resorts Turkey has miles of unspoilt coastline comprising of long sandy beaches and sheltered coves as well as lush green forests and snow capped mountains.
