Turkey
The Black Sea north — Rize, Ayder, Trabzon and Uzungöl. Green mountains, mist and rivers, three hours from the Gulf.
Why it sells
This is not the Turkey most agencies are selling. While everyone else quotes Istanbul and Cappadocia, the Rize region offers something a Gulf family actually travels for in summer: cool air, green mountains and running water, at the exact months when home is at its hottest.
Flight times are short, the culture needs no explaining to a Gulf traveller, and the region is still uncrowded enough to feel like a find rather than a queue.
