Turkey holidays
Turkey has played a major role in the history of the Mediterranean world. Due to its strategic location straddling two continents, it became a crucial crossroads and staging post on the trade routes between east and west. Several empires rose and fell over the centuries, starting with the Hittites, rivals to the great Pharoahs of Egypt.
The Roman empire followed and Constantinople (Istanbul, as it is known today) enjoyed joint capital status with Rome. The city then had more than four centuries of imperial patronage as capital of the great Ottoman empire.
Dotted throughout Turkey are the fascinating ancient remnants of these empires including world-renowned archaeological sites such as Troy and Ephesus, Gaziantep and Hattusa. Luxury holidays to Turkey can combine such impressive cultural heritage with relaxing stays on the Aegean or Mediterranean seas. The crenallated coastlines are rugged and beautiful, with sandy coves and striking views. There are also natural wonders including the travertine terraces of Pamukkale, the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia and rare black roses which grow in Halfeti.
Cox & Kings can offer a huge array of holiday options in Turkey, from 3-week tours taking in the major sights of every region to leisurely cruises and beach breaks or just a short break of 3 nights.
