Turkey has it all

Emerald waters, high mountains, idyllic villages, huge cosmopolitan cities...Few countries in the world provide tourists with such diversity when it comes to things to do. In Turkey, there is no way to get bored!

Natural wonders

From beautiful beaches on its Mediterranean coast (including Antalya, Bodrum and Izmir, to name a few), to the Kackar Mountains rising above the Black Sea, you’ll find gorgeous scenery just about anywhere you visit.

The great food

At the crossroads between Asia and Europe, Turkish food is a lot more than kebabs. Turkish cuisine varies across the country and can be defined as a very interesting mix of Central Asian, Middle Eastern and European influences.

Expect hot, dry summers and cool winters near the Mediterranean. Warm, wet winters and cool summers are the norm near the Black Sea.
