Let's see how much the vouchers to the resorts of Turkey cost now. We tell you about prices for 2021 and give useful tips. Find out what determines the cost of the tour, when and where to go cheaper, what you should pay attention to.
In this review, I will tell you about the prices for tours to Turkey from Moscow for two adults. It is from the capital that the lowest prices for tours come. Tours from St. Petersburg usually cost 20-30% more, and from other cities even more. The further east and the smaller the city, the higher the cost of tours to Turkey. Alas!
Stars near the hotel
There are a lot of hotels of different stars and levels in Turkey. The cost of rest in them does not differ so much. Look at the prices of vouchers for two for a week in the summer season:
- 2/3 stars - from 40,000 rubles
- 4 stars - from 45,000 rubles
- 5 stars - from 55,000 rubles
Of course, there are exceptions when the price is influenced by last minute tours or early booking promotions, but in general, the ratio is always about the same.
You don't need to be Einstein to understand that five for 55 thousand, five for 100 thousand and five for 200 thousand rubles are completely different things. The first hotel will rather be closer to three rubles than to its fellow in the rank of 100 thousand. Keep this in mind when buying a tour to Turkey. Hotel stars are almost always just a marketing ploy; you shouldn't get too hung up on them. It often happens that a three-ruble note for 60 thousand will be better than a five for the same price. Do not chase only stars, but carefully read the reviews about the hotel, look at its location, the size of the rooms, the freshness of the renovation, the quality of the services and entertainment provided.
It is very convenient to choose a good hotel by description and reviews on the websites of Travelata and Level.Travel - for this we love them. When searching for a tour, tick "Excellent" in "Review score" in the filters to filter out all bad hotels, as in the picture below.

Duration of rest
If possible, try to buy a ticket to Turkey for a longer period, because in terms of the cost of one day of rest, it turns out to be more profitable. If a tour for two for a week costs 40 thousand rubles, then a similar one for two weeks will not cost twice as much, but about 50-55 thousand.
"All inclusive"
These are two of the most cherished words for a good half of holidaymakers in Turkey. They could even be safely included in the name of the country, they are so important and so strongly associated with it. Most tourists prefer to buy tours to Turkey with this type of food.
Given the high demand, competition and low food prices, all-inclusive packages to Turkey are only slightly more expensive than self-catering tours. If the latter cost from 40 thousand for two for a week, then the first - from 45-50 thousand. Again, I remind you to pay attention to the reviews of tourists - look what people write about food in a particular hotel. In the cheapest, food is usually poor, monotonous, and sometimes vacationers even have questions about the observance of sanitary standards. So read the reviews!
All-inclusive packages to a good strong three-ruble note in Turkey usually cost from 60 thousand rubles for two - this is a normal price for a hotel with excellent reviews and good food. AI packages to the top five usually cost no less than 80-90 thousand rubles.

No meals
How much are the cheapest travel packages to Turkey? Tours for two for 7 days without meals usually cost from 40 thousand in the summer and from 30 thousand in the off-season. Last minute tours for the same period can cost even half the price. Such cheap vouchers involve accommodation in the most modest hotels with 1-3 stars or without them at all and with an average rating according to tourist reviews. For 50 thousand rubles, you can already buy a tour to a good hotel with a rating of 4.5-4.9 out of 5 on Travelata.
Expensive and cheap resorts
- Cheap resorts: Alanya, Antalya, Kemer. In summer, weekly vouchers cost from 40 thousand rubles for two.
- Middle segment: Side, Marmaris. Tours to these resorts cost from 50 thousand.
- Expensive resorts: Belek, Fethiye, Bodrum. Summer tours even in the usual three rubles cost from 60 thousand rubles and more.
When choosing a resort, keep in mind the specifics of the contingent of tourists. In some places, the cheapest Turkish resorts are typical Gelendzhik: Russian pop music, tourists red as crayfish, family squabbles on the beach and other quirks of national recreation of people who are not spoiled by education and are not burdened with the norms of etiquette and culture. If you want a more relaxing holiday, then go for smaller resorts with a higher price tag.
Season
The most expensive vouchers to Turkey are in July, August and the New Year. This is the peak of the season, a lot of people come, prices are hitting the ceiling.
In autumn, winter, spring and even June prices are lower. The velvet season in the resorts lasts from September until the end of October - this is the ideal time for a comfortable and inexpensive stay. Keep in mind that in low season you can boo and take a tour in the steep "five" for half the price of summer. The smartest tourists regularly use it.
In summer, there are especially many last minute tours, because there are many charters and all hotels are open. However, the cheapest tours to Turkey can still be bought only in the off-season. In autumn and spring, there are vouchers that cost only 15-20 thousand rubles for two per week of rest. Of course, for such a price there will be the simplest hotels, but if you increase your vacation budget to 30-40 thousand, then you can already buy a tour to a good hotel.
