Turkey records double digit growth annually in Indian visitor arrivals

In 2012, 90,000 Indians visited Turkey, contributing to a 24 per cent increase over 2011. In 2011 the growth rate was 16-17 per cent. Looking at the previous year, Turkey is recording double digit growth rate every year from India. The tourism board is expecting the same in the coming years as well. “We are expecting a 30 per cent growth in visitors from India in 2013. The number of Indian tourists to Turkey has been growing up to 20 per cent on an average annually and with the focus on new travel segments, the growth rate is expected to be higher,” said Özgür Aytürk, Culture and Tourism Counsellor, Turkish Embassy in India.

Apart from Istanbul’s famous historical and cultural attractions, Turkey is also promoting the three s- sea, sand and sun. “Turkey has lot to offer to all kind of travellers. Most of the Indian travellers are looking at something more than just sightseeing, coast line cities and beaches are gradually gaining momentum among the Indians hence we are promoting the three S’s.  75 – 80 per cent Indians visit Turkey for leisure and quality holidays,” said Aytürk.
