Jewel in the Crown Holidays - Turkey Brochure

Jewel in the Crown Holidays presents a dedicated brochure for holidays to Turkey, inviting travellers to discover a stretch of coastline that is stunningly beautiful, where pine-clad mountain ranges drop gently into crystal clear and inviting sea. With Turkey less than four hours away, the brochure sets out the appeal of this Aegean and Mediterranean destination.

The Beauty of Turkey

Jewel in the Crown Holidays highlights the natural charm that draws visitors back time and again. The brochure asks why holiday anywhere else when such scenery is so close to home.

• Stunningly beautiful coastline
• Pine-clad mountain ranges dropping gently into the sea
• Crystal clear and inviting waters
• Less than four hours away

A Long-Standing Connection

The company first visited Turkey in the early 1980s, when the destination was totally uncommercialised and the large tour operators did not even consider operating to this part of the Aegean or Mediterranean. That early relationship with the country underpins the brochure's personal perspective on the region.

How the Resorts Have Changed

The brochure is candid about how Turkey has evolved. It has become a lot more popular, and all resorts now cater for every need of the tourist. When the company first visited Olu Deniz there were around half a dozen hotels, several of which had simple wooden cabins rented out to Turkish families. One of these original hotels is still used today, now with a new wing featuring air-conditioning.
