Recent research has revealed that families who have booked half term holidays this October have a got a better deal than holidaymakers who booked the same holidays back in 2011.
Online, September 5, 2012 (Newswire.com) - In the run up to the October school holiday break Turkey holidays are proving to be popular with families looking to escape the winter chills and swap their winter coats for their sun cream.
A Holiday Mate spokesperson said:
'Many families have booked all inclusive deals half term breaks in popular resorts such as Oludeniz, Hisaronu and Marmaris.'
'We expect that 2013 holidays in Marmaris will be one of our best sellers, as each year thousands of customers flock to the bustling town for well earned summer holidays that offer more than just sun, sea and sand.'
Research has shown that relatively low inflation (at 1.7 per cent) and the increased strength of the pound against the euro (up 7.6 per cent) has meant that breaks in Turkey cost an average £30 less per adult.
The five other cheapest holiday destinations are all in Europe are Corfu, Greece; Alicante, Spain, Tenerife, Canary Islands and Faro in Portugal.
Of those, only Bodrum in Turkey lies outside the eurozone. - which is good news for holidaymakers due to jet out to sample the breathtaking views and crystal clear waters that Turkey holidays have to offer.
A recent study which compared the cost of holidays in the top 10 family destinations with those taken in the same week last year found that holiday offers were slightly lower this year.
Holidays to Bodrum remain the third cheapest destination despite Turkey's high rate of inflation (8.9 per cent) and the country's changeable exchange rate.
Holiday Mate added:
'Turkey is continuing to grow in popularity as a holiday destination as it has so much to offer travelers looking to soak up sights, sound and culture.'
'Families will get more for their money as they can take advantage of the fact that Turkey is outside of the eurozone.'
