Antalya pairs breathtaking beaches with bustling city life, meaning there is lots to explore.

"Whether you’re an adventure seeker, a history buff, or a beach lover, Antalya has something for everyone."
Commenting on the findings, CEO and founder of Hellotickets Jorge Díaz Largo added: "For Britons wanting to keep their costs low, Turkey offers a relatively inexpensive holiday experience, from flights and accommodation to food and activities.
“Compared to the UK, a three-course meal for two in a mid-range restaurant in the Turkish capital costs almost a quarter of what it does in London.
"Cape Verde is also extremely popular due to its warm, sunny climate throughout the year, making it an attractive escape from the often chilly and wet UK weather."
