Good to know about Turkey 

If you’re on holiday in Turkey, you don’t have to decide between cultural experience or relaxing at the beach. The many-faceted country between East and West offers fantastic beaches, interesting sites from Antiquity, impressive mountain landscapes, coastal cliffs, and cities with long histories. In Turkey, you can just relax on the beach, but you also have the option to spend a diverse, activity-filled holiday – as a single, couple or with your family. 

There are many attractive destinations for a holiday in Turkey: 
 

  • Discover Istanbul, the only city in the world that is located on two continents. The Hagia Sophia and the Topkapi Palace are just two of numerous attractions in the vibrant metropolis. 
  • The Turkish Aegean offers a perfect blend of beach and culture. Bodrum, Izmir, and Marmaris feature some of the most popular beaches in the country, and you can visit world-famous historic sites, such as the ruins of Ephesus with the legendary Celsus Library. 
  • Many other beautiful beaches and turquoise waters can be found on the Turkish Riviera. In addition to Antalya and Side, many beach holidaymakers are drawn to Alanya or Belek. 

How to get to your resort holiday in Turkey 

Many UK airports have regular direct flights to the international airports in Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bodrum, Antalya and Dalaman. To travel to the country’s interior, an open jaw flight via Istanbul is often the cheapest and fastest option. 

The main attractions on your resort holiday in Turkey 

1. The Hagia Sophia in Istanbul is often considered the “eighth wonder of the world”. Initially a church and then a mosque, the magnificent structure with the impressive dome is now home to a museum. 

2. The ancient city of Ephesus is officially one of the Seven Wonders of the World. It’s easy to imagine the former glamour of the bustling port city when you walk around the excavation site south of Izmir. The highlights include the façade of the Celsus Library, the remnants of the Artemis and Hadrian Temples and the theatre, in which up to 21,000 people could watch tragedies, comedies and religious rituals.

3. The travertine terraces of Pamukkale near Denizli almost seem unreal. Over the course of millennia, calcium-rich thermal water has formed brilliantly white, stair-like limestone deposits with countless natural pools. In some of them, visitors may even swim in the warm water. Above the travertine terraces, where wealthy Romans enjoyed "wellness holidays" in ancient times, lie the ruins of Hierapolis, a former city with a wonderfully preserved amphitheatre. 

4. One of the most extraordinary landscapes in Turkey is Cappadocia in Central Anatolia. Here, the erosion from wind and rain has shaped the soft volcanic rock into bizarre formations. You can get the best view of the expansive gardens with pillars and fairy chimneys on a hot air balloon ride. 

5. If you spend your holiday on the Turkish Riviera, be sure to visit the ancient city of Myra. It’s famous not only as the birthplace of Saint Nicholas, but also for its Lycian rock tombs. Only the wealthiest residents could afford this kind of necropolis, which resemble small houses carved into the rock. 

6. A beach holiday on the Turkish Aegean is the perfect occasion to visit the ancient city of Pergamon. The sight of the enormous amphitheatre is particularly memorable. Only two kilometres from Pergamon, Asklepion was the most important healing centre of the Roman Empire. 

7. The Castle of St. Peter watches over the harbour in Bodrum. The enormous fortification was built by the Knights of St. John in the 15th century, partially with stones from the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus. Today, this Bodrum landmark houses an important museum of underwater archaeology; concerts and other cultural events are held there regularly. 

Experience history on a holiday in Turkey 

Turkey’s eventful history is found everywhere throughout the country. In ancient times, “Minor Asia” was ruled by the Greeks and Romans. In the 4th century, the Christian Byzantines took over, before the Ottomans conquered present-day Turkey at the end of the Middle Ages in 1453. The mighty Ottoman Empire didn’t crumble until after World War 1. The Republic was proclaimed in 1922 and its founding father Kemal Atatürk, who is revered to this day, led the country into the modern age. 

During a holiday in Turkey, you will encounter numerous influences from the past at every turn. Even the Turkish cuisine shows a wide range of influences. To explore historic buildings, you often don’t even have to take an excursion. A stroll through the old city of your holiday destination will do the trick: In Side, for example, you will find a large excavation site directly in the centre. In Antalya, a walk through the old-city district of Kaleici is a must for your to-do list: There you will see not only the Hadrian Gate but also the Yivliminare Mosque from 1373. 

Festivities & Holidays in Turkey: Information for your travel planning 

In Turkey, there are public holidays with a fixed date and movable religious holidays. In both cases, most shops are closed or open only at limited hours. 
 

  • January 1st is a public holiday in Turkey. 
  • April 23rd is celebrated as National Independence Day and Children's Day.
  • The public holiday on May 1st is followed by Atatürk Memorial Day on May 19th, which is also Youth and Sports Day. In many places, sports clubs and youth groups hold demonstrations and competitions in stadiums. 
  • On August 30th, the victory in the Turkish War of Liberation is celebrated, and on September 19th, Veterans Day is on the calendar. 
  • A particularly important bank holidays is October 29th on the anniversary of the founding of the Republic by Kemal Atatürk. 
  • The dates of the Islamic holidays are based on the lunar calendar and therefore move forward eleven days every year. Ramadan also shifts from year to year. The end of Ramadan is marked by the three-day Eid. The Feast of Sacrifice also extends over several days. 

Food & drinks in Turkey: Enjoy the colourful Turkish cuisine 

Thanks to the different cultural influences over the course of its history, traditional Turkish cuisine is incredibly varied and certainly not limited to gyros and kebab. The typical Turkish appetizers, mezze with hummus, marinated olives, stuffed grape leaves and borek leave nothing to be desired. Sun-ripened fruits and vegetables bring colour to the table.

While fish and seafood play a key role in coastal regions, grilled meat often takes the centre stage. The hamburger-like köfte and pide – a kind of pizza – are very popular main dishes. In Turkey, this is traditionally accompanied by the refreshing yoghurt beverage called ayran. 

It will be hard for you to resist dessert on your holiday in Turkey. The baklava, sutlac rice pudding or halva are just too tempting. They taste especially good with a Turkish mokka. There are two main contenders for the title of national drink: the anise liqueur raki and caj black tea, with which Turkish households start their day. 

ROBINSON’s tip: At all four ROBINSON resorts in Turkey, you enjoy all-inclusive with varying breakfast buffets, lunch and dinner, including drinks, as well as coffee, tea, and cake in the afternoon. 

Rich diversity of flora & fauna in Turkey 

With its mountains, fertile lowlands and a multifaceted coastal region, Turkey features a wide variety of landscapes. The climate ranges from continental to mild Mediterranean, and Turkey is home to more than 900 types of plants.

While vast regions in the north consist of forest, the dry regions of the country’s interior are filled with shrubs and thistles. The Mediterranean climate is responsible for the greatest biodiversity. Macchia and wine, tomatoes, lemons, and olives thrive along the Riviera and the Aegean, along with fruit trees. 

The animals you will encounter most often in Turkey are typical farm animals: goats, sheep, donkeys, and mules. The steppe regions are home to camels, porcupines, and mongooses. Wolves, jackals and jumping mice are found only in very remote areas. Deer, wildcats and bears have retreated to the Taurus Mountains.

On walks, you’re more likely to come across tortoises and lizards. It’s always worth looking up when you’re on a nature hike: In addition to vultures, cranes, storks and pelicans, Turkey is home to eagles, black kites, and other birds. There are also several kinds of migratory birds in the winter. The waters around Turkey have a rich variety of fish, including sea bream, red mullet and sea bass. Sea turtles and Mediterranean seals also live along some parts of the coastline. 

Family resort holiday in Turkey 

Holidaying in Turkey with the whole family – that’s a great idea. After all, nearly all the popular beaches are no more than 1.5 hours from the closest airport. There are many kid-friendly beaches and older children, in particular, will enjoy discovering history on the available tours. 

1. Enjoy the waters at Troy Aqua Park in Belek: Here you can find 13 slides, a flow channel and wave pool in a 12,000 square metre area. Your kids will be amazed by the dolphin show and a visit to the shark aquarium. 

2. Visit the Manavgat waterfall at Side: This excursion is a nice alternative to the beach, especially on very hot days. A boat tour on Manavgat River is particularly refreshing.  Don’t forget to pack a picnic: The trees along the water offer wonderful places to relax in the shade. You can also find several nearby restaurants. 

3. A day at Göynük Dinopark Antalya: The large dinosaur models are the main attraction at this theme park. Younger kids often enjoy the petting zoo even more. Also visit the children’s planetarium there and enjoy the trampoline, pool and climbing wall. 

The best ROBINSON resorts in Turkey for families: At the ROBINSON PAMFILYA, your children can romp around to their hearts’ content at the professional childcare or on the two waterslides. At the all-ages resorts of ROBINSON SARIGERME PARK and ROBINSON NOBILIS, families are welcome as well. 

Sports & activities on a resort holiday in Turkey 

Enjoying the sun and swimming in the warm ocean – for many, this is the epitome of a perfect holiday in Turkey. Those who prefer to be active during the best time of the year will find excellent conditions for many kinds of sports in Turkey. 

Water sports

Whether you prefer swimming or diving – you can access the most beautiful and hard-to-reach areas along the coast on a Blue Cruise with a traditional gulet. During interim stops at deserted beaches or in front of small islands, you can dive directly from the ship into the water, take amazing photos with your underwater camera or look forward to a small barbecue. 

Diving and snorkelling in more than 25 spots is also great fun. Around Kas in particular, you can discover spectacular reefs, exciting caves and shipwrecks. The waters around Bodrum have an abundance of fish. Once in a while, even exotic guests from the Red Sea stray over. 

Golf 

Passionate golfers spend their holiday in the Belek region. The golf courses here are available year-round, although the main season is from November to April. On the many well-maintained greens, you often tee off with a view of the shimmering sea. 

Hiking 

If you packed your hiking boots, you’re probably already looking forward to the Lycian Way. As one of the most beautiful long-distance hiking paths in the world, it covers a length of 509 kilometres above the Lycian coast. It mainly follows old shepherd’s tracks or ancient trade routes and continues to surprise you with spectacular views. As an alternative, you can take a Jeep safari to the wild and romantic Taurus Mountains. After an action-packed ride through dense forests, narrow ravines and along curvy roads, you can enjoy refreshments near a waterfall or a visit to a mountain village. 

Shopping

Souvenir hunters best take a stroll through a vibrant bazaar. You’ll be sure to find typical keepsakes such as a Nazar amulet, colourful ceramics, Turkish honey and spices. And you can demonstrate your skills at haggling. 

ROBINSON's tip

At the ROBINSON resorts in Turkey, you can try out such sports as sailing, stand-up paddling, canyoneering or beach volleyball

Transportation & getting around on holiday in Turkey: from the resort to the beach or sightseeing destinations 

  • Comfortable long-distance buses with individually adjustable seats are available for longer routes. The tickets are relatively inexpensive – especially since a snack or beverages are often included.
  • Turkey also has an extensive railway network that connects all the important cities.
  • A dolmus is a small bus that follows specific routes. If you want to get on, you just have to give the driver a clear signal. This kind of vehicle is also frequently used by the locals. When you ride on a dolmus, you immerse yourself in everyday local life – at very inexpensive prices. 
  • In the larger cities, you can also take regular city buses from A to B. In Istanbul and Antalya, you first have to buy a chip card and load travel credit on it.
  • For added flexibility, you can take a taxi.  This conveniently takes you to hidden beaches outside the tourist centres, and you can plan your excursions independently of the fixed bus schedules. If you want to enjoy the sunset on the beach a little longer at night, just arrange for a later pick-up time./li>

Plan your resort holiday in Turkey: climate & optimal travel times  

The Turkish climate varies due to the great expanse of the country. At the Aegean Sea in the west, Turkey’s climate is Mediterranean. The summers are dry and hot. In winter, it is mild, with temperatures rarely dropping below 15 °C. The Mediterranean region in the south of the country has an almost subtropical climate. Here too, the summers are hot and dry, with the winters a little milder than at the Aegean. 

Optimal travel time for active holidays in Turkey

For extensive sightseeing tours, spring or autumn are the best times to travel to Turkey. Then the temperatures are much milder and the accommodation is less expensive. If you’re mainly interested in culture and history, your Turkey holiday will also be a complete success in winter: Although it rains more often, the average temperature is between 8 and 15 °C. City trips are more suited to the mild winter months

Optimal travel time for beach holidays in Turkey

It’s warmest in the summer months of July and August. Then the temperatures on the Turkish Riviera will certainly hit the 40 °C mark. But thanks to the constant ocean breeze, the heat stays tolerable, and no rain should be expected. There is also little precipitation in June and September, if any, which means that these two months are also ideal for a carefree beach holiday in Turkey. The best time for beach holidays continues up to November, with water temperatures remaining 20 °C and over.
