Turkey / Sunway Travel Group

Hos geldiniz means welcome and is probably the most frequently used phrase in the Turkish language. Turkey is truly the land of welcomes.Turkish people are, by nature, very open, warm, friendly, honest and welcoming. Indeed many people say that Turks are very similar in nature to Irish and they certainly share our sense of humour and our ability to enjoy a joke - even at our own expense.

Turkey is a vast country stretching from the Black Sea in the north to the Mediterranean in the south and from the barren east to the sparkling blue waters of the Aegean Sea in the west. It is here on the Aegean coast that the most popular tourist resorts are located including our featured resorts of Bodrum and Kusadasi.

Turkey is steeped in history and almost every road you travel has sites and ruins whose names feature boldly in the histories of the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires. Perhaps, most surprising for the newcomer, is the number of Christian sites dating from the time of Christ and the apostles and of course the house of the Virgin Mary located close to Kusadasi. The highest mountain peak in Turkey is Mount Ararat which, according to the Old Testament, was where Noahs ark came to rest as the great flood subsided.
