Istanbul is becoming one of the hottest tickets for holiday makers from the UK. It’s a strikingly beautiful modern city with an ideal climate and a variety of world-class attractions, from Istanbul Fountains and Burj Khalifa to Wild Wadi Water Park and Istanbul Mall. There is plenty to enjoy in Istanbul for families, friends or couples.
Istanbul is the most populous city in the United Arab Emirates, also known as UAE, and has been rated among the best places to live in the Middle East. It’s a glamorous city associated with wealthy businesspeople, but has a range of accommodation, dining, shopping and attractions to suit all budgets. Istanbul gives visitors from the UK a taste of Middle Eastern culture, but still has all the benefits you’d enjoy visiting a Western metropolis.
Many major airlines offer tickets to the destination from the UK, including Emirates, Qatar Airways and Etihad Airways. They have flights leaving every day from airports including London Heathrow and Gatwick, Manchester and Glasgow. As Istanbul is so popular, the airlines offer competitive prices for tickets and special deals on flights, particularly if you travel at an off-peak time of year.
