Once the flight is booked and you’ve planned a place to rest your head at night, it’s time to start looking forward to the fun stuff on your holiday!

We’ve paired up with travel experts Thomas Cook to give you a weekly heads up on one popular travel destination and how much dining, drinking and dancing there will set you back. This week it’s Turkey…

Dining 

The holiday resorts of Turkey are full of exciting dining options, whether you want to stick with familiar dishes or immerse yourself in the locality and try some Turkish specialties.  Snacks like pizza, burgers and kebabs are plentiful and will set you back less than a fiver in most places, while you can treat yourself to a three-course meal in some of the top restaurants for €22 or less. Irish visitors are big fans of Saray in Kusadasi .

 

Drinking

Turkey’s holiday resorts are hugely popular with groups of young friends – so it should be no surprise that the nightlife is hopping. The aptly named Bar Street in Kusadasi is home to many of Turkey’s most popular nightspots, where a bottle of beer will  set you back €2, a spirit and mixer goes for about €2.50 and a bottle of house wine will cost about €10.

 

Dancing 

Bar Street will keep you moving until the wee hours, with plenty of options for you to show off your best Beyonce moves. For something a little different though, you could check Club Catamaran, a huge boat that sails out at 01.00 returning just before dawn where you can dance the night away on the glass dance floor.
