Jet2holidays has today announced the launch of new guided tours to Turkey, with the opportunity of exploring Anatolia and enjoying the benefits of a package holiday booked through the award-winning tour operator.

Named the ‘Treasures of Turkey’, the seven-night escorted tours will feature as part ofJet2holidays’ new Discover More collection, which has been designed in response to increasing demand from customers who are looking for more discovery-based experience holidays.

Available from early April through to the end of October in both 2023 and 2024, the tours are on sale from today from all ten of the company’s UK airports. Departing every Friday, they give customers the opportunity to soak up the sights, scenery and culture of Turkey’s Anatolia region.

At the heart of the seven-night programme is a detailed guided tour, which will see customers travel by coach through Turkey’s stunning landscape, visiting 14 historic sites along the way. Customers will pick up the ancient Silk Routes and explore three UNESCO World Heritage sites – the ancient city of Ephesus, the rock sites of Cappadocia, and the ‘cotton terraces’ of Pamukkale.

In addition, each tour also includes visits to historic sites such as Konya, the ancient city of Perge, Mevlana Mosque and Museum, Hierapolis, Miletus and Didyma.
