Turkey’s tourism sector has turned to international wedding organizers this yr to boost the tourism economy from the adverse effects of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
“Wedding organizers are more profitable than other types of tourism,” Nalan Yesilyurt, a board member of the Association of Turkish Travel Agencies.
“The money spent in a week alone throughout such occasions is equal to what regular tourists spend in a month.”
She stated international wedding organizers increasingly choose Turkey’s the Mediterranean and Aegean coastal resort towns that offer “unique and exclusive” services in upper segment hotels, marinas, and restaurants.
“Bodrum (in the southwestern province of Mugla) has shined like a star mostly with its vivid nightlife, marinas, which attract jet-set yachts, and restaurants with celebrity chefs,” Yesilyurt stated.
