Turkey is the only country in the world to sit astride two continents: a unique position that has given rise to a culture that reflects both East and West. It is a country where European aspirations sit comfortably alongside Asian traditions and the volatile atmosphere of the Middle East morphs seamlessly into the relaxed outlook of the Mediterranean world.

Turkey, often called the land of contrasts, is a virtual paradise of sun, sea, mountains, history and lakes that offers the vacationer a variety of activities all year round. Ranging from water sports to mountain trekking, skiing, archaeology to night-clubbing and river rafting, there is an enormous selection of things to see and do in Turkey. Plus, travelling throughout the country, whether by plane, yacht or tour bus is a cinch.

Such a rich history has left an indelible mark and Turkey abounds with historic sites and archaeological wonders set in a varied and beautiful landscape. The Mediterranean coastline is punctuated with well-preserved Greco-Roman cities such as Pergamom and Ephesus, while the austere and rugged Anatolian plateau has cave churches hidden away in the improbable fairytale landscape of Cappadocia. Istanbul, still very much the pulse of the nation, has even more to offer, with Roman aqueducts, Byzantine churches and Ottoman mosques and palaces.
