Turkey is satisfied with the flow of tourists

The number of tourists is steadily growing in the Republic of Turkey. Since the beginning of the year, there has been a 30% increase in the tourist flow, compared to the same period last year.

At the same time, the head of the Federation of Hoteliers of Turkey, Osman Ayik notes that the growth of early booking reached 80%, which means that the peak of the season in Turkey will be profitable in any case.

According to Ayik, the largest increase of tourists was seen in Antalya, Istanbul and the Aegean region.

"The demand for Turkey is also growing in countries such as China and India. For example, Indians began to celebrate their weddings more often in Turkey: they are mostly lush and expensive celebrations which brings good income to the country, " Ayik underlined.

In addition, Ayik says that the "all-inclusive" system should be introduced throughout Turkey since the foreign tourists enjoy it very much.
