ATOR named the minimum cost of a vacation in Turkey in July

The cost of package tours to Turkey for July and August, when booked in mid-June, was 2-4% lower than the spring figures. This was announced on June 15 on the website of the Association of Tour Operators of Russia (ATOR).

ATOR specialists conducted price monitoring in 21 hotels on the Antalya coast. The study covered the period of departures in the second half of July, August and September. Offers for 10 nights for two with a flight from Moscow and all-inclusive meals were taken into account.

"Prices for summer Turkey in June are more profitable than they were in May and April, and demand for autumn is growing," analysts emphasize.

According to monitoring data, in mid-July, accommodation fell in price in 15 out of 21 hotels. The average price decrease compared to April was 4%. The premium segment is getting cheaper the most: discounts in some luxury hotels reach 10-12%. In August, a similar trend was recorded — the fall in value compared to April averaged 3.4%.

ATOR notes that September remains the most budget-friendly month of the season, but prices have already begun to rise due to increased demand. Compared to May, the cost of holidays in the first month of autumn increased by an average of 0.5%. Experts recommend booking September tours now, before prices go up.

According to experts, current prices for holidays in July in budget hotels range from 120 thousand to 185 thousand rubles. Classic five-star hotels will cost 255-350 thousand rubles, and premium-level facilities cost from 420 thousand to 600 thousand rubles. The cost of a holiday in the "heavy suite" segment for 10 nights can reach 1.8 million rubles, adds "Газета.Ru ".

Holidays in these countries will cost 7-8.5 thousand rubles per day.

Oksana Vlasenko, an expert at the OnlineTours package tour booking service, told Izvestia on June 13 that Turkey is the leader of mass summer tourism. Travelers are attracted by the all inclusive system, a wide range of resorts and a well-developed flight program from Russian cities. Antalya and Belek are more often chosen for family holidays, while young people prefer Bodrum and Marmaris.
