Relax on a Turkish Blue Cruise

•Flying to Cyprus
The island of Cyprus has been a popular destination for visitors from the UK for many years and flights to the island are now using either Paphos or Larnanca airport as their destination. British Airways has had a significant presence at Larnanca for many years, with it serving as a maintenance base and also because British Airways was a major shareholder of Cyprus Airways when it was originally founded. When the range of aircraft was more limited the base at Larnaca acted as a hub for flight...

•The Diversity of Antalya in Turkey
Anyone travelling to Antalya in Turkey and expecting to find the typical tourist resort will not be disappointed but they will be surprised to find there’s much more to this city that meeting the needs of holidaymakers.

The older part of Antalya, known as Kalecei, is a warren of narrow cobbled streets flanked by a mix...

•A View of the Greek Island Rhodes
If you have always fancied a holiday on a Greek island but were worried about busy beaches and crowded bars and night clubs full of noisy young people having fun then perhaps Rhodes is the destination you’ve been looking for. Perhaps it’s the location of Rhodes that sets it apart from other Greek islands, being much nearer to the coast of Turkey than Greece. Rhodes certainly has a slightly different feel to the other main islands like Corfu, Kos, Mykonos, Naxos and Kefallonia and Zakynthos off...

•New Golf Holiday Destinations
The idea of golfing holidays is not a new one and in fact many destinations have built a healthy tourist trade providing for the needs of the golfer on vacation. Typically it was the resorts of southern Spain and Portugal that held all the cards when it came to attracting golfers but that may be changing with alternative destinations working hard to catch up. Although still technically part of Spain, the island of Majorca has been slow to provide facilities for the golfer. Perhaps it was the...

•Club La Santa in Lanzarote
How about a holiday where all the family can go, any time of the year where you can relax enjoy great weather and come back a lot fitter both mentally and physically than when you left?

•Secrets of the Bozburun Peninsula
When you think of holiday resorts in Turkey the towns of Bodrum, Marmaris and Ismir are usually the first to spring to mind, but Turkey is a huge country and the southern coast which stretches from Antalya in the East to Bodrum in the West has plenty more to offer. Resorts like Antalya and Marmaris have both seen plenty of improvements over the past 30 years and now offer everything to make the summer family holiday a perfect experience. The weather is reliably warm and sunny, fantastic...

•A Trip To Paphos
The popularity of Cyprus as a holiday destination is something we can expect to grow over the coming years. Many European holiday makers who would have previously chosen an island like Tenerife or Majorca as their preference for a summer break are now considering Cyprus and with an increasing number of flight providers flying to one of the two main airports on the Island, it is now relatively easy to get there from most places in Europe. Situated on the coast in the southwest of the Greek...

•Top Ten Greek Islands
The Greek islands form one of the most beautiful tourist destinations in Europe. Over 1400 separate islands are spread across the Ionian, Aegean and Mediterranean Seas and make up a fifth of the land mass of Greece. The influx of tourism has had different effects on different islands with some happy to rush along with the demands that modern tourism enforce, while others have been more cautious and are now reaping the rewards of not succumbing to over-development. These are beautiful islands...
