Turkey’s first Nickelodeon Resort to open in Antalya

Kemer region consists of six beautiful villages stretching along the Turkish Mediterranean coast, offering visitors various ways to explore the beauty of Turkey's nature and culture.
Beldibi:
The village is approximately 7 km long, with the main street running parallel to the coastline. There are hotels of different classes, souvenir shops, cafes, and bars. All of these are making evening strolls in the village very pleasant and rather peaceful. As Beldibi is the closest village to Antalya Airport, it’s popular with families with young children who appreciate the quick hotel transfer after the flight. Many hotels feature lush greenery and pine forests, creating a true holiday atmosphere. The surrounding mountains seem almost within reach, offering scenic views right from the hotel rooms. Near Beldibi, there are also lightly trafficked hiking trails in the mountains, ideal for adventurous explorers. However, caution is advised—rocks can be loose, so for those without experience or equipment, it’s best to go with an experienced guide. The mountains can also be enjoyed on a Jeep safari or by rafting down the rivers.

Playa de los Gigantes, Santiago del Teide

Heading to the west of Tenerife, the village of Santiago del Tiede is where you will find Playa de los Gigantes, named after the 800 metre cliffs which plunge onto the beach. They offer swimmers a unique vista. The beach is covered in black volcanic sand, not uncommon in Tenerife, but surprising the first time you encounter it. Although the beach is fairly small, Playa de los Gigantes is relatively unknown and remains fairly quiet. Just off the beach is a group of restaurants and bars to help you make the most of this peaceful and authentic environment. Nearby, you can also book your maiden dive or an excursion to observe marine life.

Playa de Las Americas, Arona

One of the main seaside resorts in Tenerife, but also an essential place to visit on any visit to the Canaries. Located to the south-west of the island, Playa de las Americas is a paradise for surfers, beginners and aficionados alike. You can take your first lessons in mastering the waves here before a restful break sheltered by the rocks. The beach is lined with a long promenade filled with restaurants, bars and shops to fill the rest of your day or evening.

Places in Tenerife that are full of flavour

Egypt is set to open the doors to limited sections of a new flagship museum, built near the Pyramids of Giza, that will display the world’s largest archaeological collection when the public is given full access.
The Grand Egyptian Museum will open 12 of its halls on Wednesday as a trial run in advance of the still-unannounced full opening.
The megaproject, built near the famed Pyramids at a cost of more than $1bn, will open its halls for 4,000 visitors per day, said Tayyeb Abbas, assistant to the minister of antiquities.
The museum has been under construction for more than 10 years. Some sections have been open since 2022 for limited tours.
However, an official date for a full opening has not yet been set. It has been repeatedly delayed for various reasons, including the COVID-19 pandemic.
More than 100,000 artefacts of Egypt’s ancient treasures will be displayed in the world’s largest archaeological museum, according to the Egyptian state information website.
Abbas said the trial run would help prepare for the full opening by identifying operational issues, including which parts of the museum might become overcrowded.
The displays across the 12 halls tap into issues related to society, religion, and doctrine in ancient Egypt, he added. The open-style halls have been classified by dynasty and historical order and will showcase thousands of artefacts.

Paragliding

If you're looking for a real adrenaline rush in Tenerife, longer tandem flights are definitely a must-try experience. However, it's important to keep in mind that these flights depend on weather conditions, and due to high demand, it's advisable to book in advance. Otherwise, you might find that there are no available spots on your desired date.
Tandem flight experts ensure that you feel comfortable and safe throughout the experience, allowing you to see the island from a completely new perspective. From hotel pickup to the paragliding adventure and back to the hotel, everything is smoothly organised. We highly recommend this experience to anyone who is looking to enjoy something truly unforgettable!

Boat Party

If you are looking for a place where to get in your dancing shoes, you don’t have to wait for the evening or wait in a long queue to a full club. In Tenerife there is an option to join a party on a boat, where you can enjoy music and dances, surrounded by fresh sea breeze and picturesque ocean views. Usually a ticket for a boat party is active for three hours.
Imagine this: you are surfing on waves, wind is caressing your face and DJ is making your feet move. It’s like you are in the music video! This experience is like a club, where are no walls, but fresh air keeping you energized and 360 ocean view helping you unwind and enjoy every moment. A moment when the rhythms of the music blend with the sounds of the waves.

Oasis Siwa is one of the furthest and quietest places in Egypt. It is located near the border of Libya in the desert of North Africa. This location is known and popular for its unique nature, rich history and diverse sightseeing, offering unforgettable experience for the guests.
One of the main oasis Siwa attractions are salt lakes with crystal clear water, that found recognition among many known Youtubers and travel bloggers as one of the most populars places in Egypt. You don’t need to swim in salt lakes - water holds you up itself. While in water you have to be careful and avoid salty water getting into your eyes, since it's pretty painful and inconvenient.
You can choose in between multiple crystal clear salt lakes. When you finish your swimming, don’t forget to take a bottle of mineral water to wash the salt away. Salt lakes are similar to Jordan Dead Sea due to its hypersalinity, meaning they have healing properties that are significantly more beneficial than in ordinary seawater.

Многим знакомо чувство, когда собираешься в путешествие большой семьей и боишься упустить или забыть что-то важное (например, доверенность на ребенка). Не бойтесь спрашивать наших консультантов, тогда ваш отпуск пройдет гладко и без сюрпризов.
Мы понимаем, как важен ваш комфорт, поэтому мы подготовили ответы на самые животрепещущие и повторяющиеся вопросы.
1. Как правильно оформить бронирование, если у нас большая семья и нам нужно несколько раздельных номеров в отеле?
Для каждого отдельного номера требуется оформление нового бронирования (один номер в отеле = одно бронирование).
Наша поисковая система позволяет внести одновременно 4 взрослых и 4 детей. Для вашего удобства она сама преобразует детей старше 12 лет во взрослых, согласно уникальным требованиям конкретного отеля. Почему поиск не дает результата или выбор очень маленький? Для больших семей достаточно мало номеров, они часто встают на стоп, так как пользуются большим спросом. Исходя из нашего опыта, мы советуем разбивать большие семьи на два бронирования, так выбор предложений будет намного больше. Мы всегда здесь, чтобы ответить на ваши вопросы.
2. До какого возраста ребенок считается "инфантом"?
В туризме младенец считается "инфантом" до 2 лет включительно. Им не предоставляется отдельное место в самолете, инфант путешествует на руках у родителей. В случае необходимости место можно докупить, запросив цену у наших консультантов.
3. Можно ли брать питание для ребенка на борт самолета?
Путешествуя с ребенком, вы можете взять с собой в салон самолета необходимое во время полета питание. Еда может находиться в емкости объемом более 100 миллилитров, например, термосе с водой, детской бутылочке с молоком и т.д. В случае с детским питанием упаковывать тару в прозрачный полиэтиленовый пакет не требуется.
В ручную кладь также можно взять твердое детское питание, например пюре. При этом следует учитывать возможность вскрытия контейнера и взятия пробы при проверке безопасности.
Важно помнить! Детское питание и воду разрешено провозить в ручной клади только деткам до двух лет, или в аэропортах с соответствующим оборудованием для ее проверки.
4. Какие документы необходимы для путешествия с детьми?
Все очень индивидуально и зависит от страны Вашего путешествия. Пожалуйста, внимательно прочитайте соответствующий раздел "Lastega reisimine" на сайте МИД Эстонии и обязательно убедитесь в наличии и правильности всех необходимых документов.

Mustafa Madbouly, the Prime Minister of Egypt, affirmed that despite all the current regional disturbances, Egypt has successfully attracted tourists and has a resilient tourism sector.
During the weekly press conference on Thursday, Madbouly explained that many reports have been issued in recent days indicating that the region is no longer attractive to global tourism due to ongoing conflicts. However, these reports also highlighted that Egypt is the only country in the region that is exempt from this situation. He emphasized that Egypt has succeeded, despite all the current regional disturbances, in achieving tourist attraction and has a resilient tourism sector.
He said, “This leads me to discuss the meetings we held this week with the Ministers of Tourism, and Housing, Utilities,and Urban Communities, regarding the tourism map in Egypt. This is with the aim of making the largest possible number of tourist areas available to encourage tourism investment and create more than 200,000 new rooms over the next five years.”
He added, “This is a very important step towards achieving Egypt’s target of 30 million tourists annually in the coming period. He explained that the number of available hotel rooms currently, both established and operational, allows us to reach a maximum of 18 million tourists per year. To achieve the larger goal, we need 200,000 hotel rooms. Currently, a large number of rooms are under construction in El Alamein and the North Coast, in addition to other areas on the Red Sea coast. He added that a number of additional incentives have been discussed to encourage tourism developers over the current and coming years to accelerate the construction and introduction of the largest number of hotel rooms, and to enable us to achieve the desired goal in the near future. He affirmed that the tourism sector is capable of continuing to grow and achieve the desired objectives.”
The Egyptian Prime Minister indicated that, based on the directives of the President of Egypt, he is following up on the readiness of the Grand Egyptian Museum for opening. He confirmed that all work on the museum has been completed,and that the development of the entire area surrounding the museum is currently being completed, not only in the immediate vicinity, but also including the axes and roads leading to the museum.
In this regard, he referred to the development taking place on the ring road, explaining that all the facades of the buildings on the ring road are being changed in accordance with a civilizational vision that includes the entire area, as it is the main axis leading to the Grand Egyptian Museum.
All the surrounding areas are also being developed, starting from the Sphinx International Airport and the vicinity of the museum itself, so that this giant project will be a gift from Egypt to the whole world. He pointed out that the final touches are being put in place for the opening of the museum, and the determination of the appropriate time for the opening will depend on the political vision within the framework of the regional circumstances surrounding the area.

Palma is set to introduce ‘smart beaches’ in 2025. This innovative concept will allow tourists and locals to reserve sun loungers in advance, enjoy free Wi-Fi, and benefit from enhanced safety measures.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The City Council is aiming to improve beach management and reduce overcrowding through this digital transformation. By introducing an online booking system for sunbeds and umbrellas, beachgoers can secure their spot in advance, eliminating the need for early morning rushes.&nbsp;

   An innovative response to the anti-tourism movement 

In addition to reservations, Palma’s smart beaches will offer free Wi-Fi, enabling visitors to stay connected while enjoying the sun. In addition, the city plans to deploy drones for surveillance and rescue operations, enhancing safety for beachgoers.&nbsp;&nbsp;
An online platform will provide detailed information about each beach, including available services, entertainment options, and accessibility features. Users will be able to view a map of the beach with real-time availability of sun loungers, similar to airline seat selection.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The City Council is currently developing the technology and will incorporate it into future beach concession contracts. An extensive information campaign will be launched to inform residents and tourists about the new system.

 A system for the whole of Spain and beyond 

If successful, Palma’s smart beaches could become a model for other coastal destinations in Spain and beyond.  This is exactly the kind of innovative solution to over-tourism that Spain needs to be developing in response to increasing tension among residents.

In the United Arab Emirates, where luxurious hotels and skyscrapers can overshadow other activities, Ras Al Khaimah, located just about 100 km from downtown Dubai, offers a completely different experience. This place combines breathtaking landscapes and adrenaline-filled adventures, offering a unique blend of natural beauty and truly memorable activities.
One of these activities is descending on the world's longest zip line:
Starting platform
It is located at an impressive 1,680 metres above sea level. This gives you one last chance to reconsider the choices you’ve made in your life. But hey, you don’t want to give up now, right?
Ride
You are secured lying face down in a superhero pose. When the flight begins, you rush into the mountains, reaching such a speed that would probably get you a speeding ticket. The first drop is like the world's most extreme roller coaster, except you're not on a track. You’re just… flying.
Landing
And just when you think the adrenaline level is maxed out, you land on a suspended platform, just like in an action movie.
Finish
When your heart rate is normal again, you can visit The Jebel Jais viewing platform park. There are telescopes to help you spot mountains in the distance and maybe even see some wildlife.

Energise your vacation: discover the best places to dance to the rhythm of local beats

I want a 2-week vacation, but at 3 different hotels. Is that possible?

Yes, this is absolutely possible! If the minimum stay requirement at the hotel allows, our consultants can calculate the final price for you. It is important to note that group transfers between the hotels and the airport are included in the package price. However, transfer between hotels must be arranged separately and can only be done via private transfer or organised locally, for example, by taxi. Taxi service apps by country can be found here: https://travely.ee/en/news/223&nbsp;
2. The price I saw the day before yesterday has already increased:
If the price that you saw earlier has increased, the reason for it is likely the dynamic pricing, where prices change according to demand and availability. In that case we advise you to book the trip as soon as you find the suitable offer. If the price has increased, you might also try exploring different dates or time periods to find a suitable offer. We recommend registering to the Travely community to keep track of your favourite hotels and earn rewards from your completed trips. You can register as a user on the Travely.ee homepage.&nbsp;
3. I am on vacation right now, but I need to return earlier:
If you are now travelling and decide to return earlier, it is important to check flight spots availability. To complete such a request, you should definitely contact our consultant through the website, who can assist with arranging an early return flight.
4. I am on vacation right now, but I want to stay here longer:
If you are travelling and wish to prolong your vacation, we need to check the availability of flights for the new dates and the availability of hotel rooms. To make such a change, you should also contact our consultant on the Travely website. Please note that the hotel may assign you a different room if the original room has already been booked by other guests.
5. Can I bring additional luggage?
If you want to bring additional luggage, please be aware that the maximum additional weight for the entire plane is calculated by the airline. It is advisable to arrange for extra baggage in advance to ensure it is allowed on your flight. To confirm the additional weight, you should make a separate inquiry with our consultant through the Travely website.
6. We would like to change the hotel:
If you want to change the hotel, you should know that the hotel where your booking is made has already confirmed the room for your vacation period and could not offer it to others. For this reason, it is often not possible to change hotels without an additional fee. The conditions of all hotels are different, so it is necessary to consult with the tour operator to obtain more detailed information about the price of the new hotel and any possible extra fees.
7. We are travelling with a large group and would like all our rooms to be next to each other:
If you are travelling with a bigger group and would like all the rooms to be next to each other, all additional requests will be forwarded to the hotel. Unfortunately, such requests cannot always be guaranteed, as it depends on the hotel's allocation policy. Typically, rooms are distributed across different buildings according to room categories; for example, standard rooms might only be on the second floor or spread out across a large area. It is also possible that other large groups may be staying at the hotel at the same time, which can affect the fulfilment of your room location requests.
8. I chose the hotel “insert hotel name”. How long does it take for a group transfer to reach the hotel?
Exact information about the duration of the group transfer will be available approximately 12 hours before your trip, once the list of current passengers is finalised. At that point, hotel lists will be compiled, and the safest and most convenient route will be planned, considering narrow streets, one-way roads, and other factors. If it is important to reach the hotel quickly, we recommend booking a private transfer, which does not depend on others and will take you directly from the airport to the hotel. For private transfers, you can arrange either a separate bus for a larger group or a smaller vehicle.
9. Is it possible to pay with euros or debit/credit card on the spot?
Most larger shopping centres and hotels at the destinations accept card payments. However, smaller fruit markets and souvenir shops often prefer cash. If you plan to pay in euros, keep in mind that local merchants calculate the value of euros based on their own beneficial rate, which may be less favourable than the official currency exchange rate.
Therefore, it is recommended to exchange money into the local currency before your trip or at a local exchange place at the destination to avoid potential extra costs and ensure smoother payments.
10. Is it possible to make a surprise for my partner and book a trip without them knowing?
Yes, this is totally possible. To book a trip you need a partner's name, surname, birthday date, passport number and its expiration date. To avoid future problems, make sure that all the details are correct. If you have all the needed details, you can book and organise a trip, keeping it secret.

As of 31 March this year, Romania and Bulgaria will join the Schengen zone, which allows free movement between member states for 400 million citizens.The two countries have been members of the European Union (EU) since 2007 but as they were not part of the border-free area, travellers were still required to show passports upon entry. In 2024, border controls for the two countries will be simplified.
Do you need a passport to enter Romania and Bulgaria?
When Romania and Bulgaria join the Schengen zone this year, it will be easier for travellers to visit the two countries. The two interior ministries announced in December that some border checks will be lifted. Travellers arriving by air or sea from other Schengen zone countries will no longer have to show passports upon arrival. This means passengers on flights, cruises and ferries will not be subject to checks. If you are driving or arriving by train or bus into Romania and Bulgaria, however, you will still need to carry ID as rules governing land borders have not yet been established. This is due to a veto exercised by Austria. Travellers without EU citizenship are advised to remember that stays in Bulgaria and Romania count towards time spent in the Schengen zone, which cannot be longer than 90 days in 180 days.
Here are five hotels we highly recommend for an unforgettable vacation experience in Bulgaria:

Grifid Encanto Beach - The service, food quality, and attitude are exemplary.
Sunny Beach Club - An adult oriented hotel, offering a paradise for both social and solitary seekers.
Astor Garden - Luxury hotel just meters from the beach.
Best Western Plus Premium Inn - Renovated hotel with a good location - in the center of the  Sunny Beach, close to the beach.
HVD Reina Del Mar - Hotel with good animation near the city center and beach.

Egypt and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have entered a groundbreaking agreement to develop the new city of Ras El Hekma on Egypt's North Coast, signaling a monumental investment in urban, business, and tourism infrastructure. The deal, signed by Egypt's Minister of Housing Assem El-Gazzar and UAE’s Minister of Investment Mohamed Al Suwaidi, will see the injection of $35 billion in foreign direct investment (FDI) within two months, the largest in Egypt's history.

Additionally, a central business district, a free economic zone for IT industries, logistics hubs, and a marina are planned, along with the development of an international airport.
Egypt anticipates significant long-term benefits, including the attraction of 8 million tourists upon completion and the creation of millions of job opportunities.

With tourism booming throughout 2023, Europe's visitor numbers finally reached pre-pandemic levels, while turkey experienced a surprising increase in the number of visitors, according to the Global Travel Report published by WTM.According to the report, which predicts that Turkey will overtake France as the second most visited country in Europe in 2024, the total number of visits to Europe decreased by 3 per cent from 440 million in 2019 to 428 million in 2023, but Turkey, where these figures are on the rise, recorded a 73 per cent increase in the number of visitors compared to 2019.Thus, Turkey outperformed Europe's two largest markets, France and Spain, which increased by 33 per cent and 31 per cent respectively compared to 2019. Croatia, the tenth largest market in the region, was another remarkable performer, expected to be 51 per cent above pre-pandemic levels in 2023.Entering 2023 with a major and devastating earthquake disaster centred in Kahramanmaraş, Turkey struggled to recover in terms of tourism at the beginning of the summer months, but tourism took off in the following months. Although the main reason why Turkey attracts so many tourists is its natural beauty and historical richness, the importance of offering an attractive option in terms of economic holiday cannot be ignored.The depreciation of the Turkish lira has made holidays in Turkey more affordable for many travellers, while Turkey's coastline, with its crystal clear waters and luxury resorts, has become a more budget-friendly alternative to the Italian Riviera or France's Côte d'Azur. In addition, Turkey continued to welcome tourists from Russia as the only country in Europe where flights from Russia were not banned. Approximately 5 million Russian tourists visited Turkey in 2022 and a total of 7 million Russian tourists are expected to visit in 2023.However, while Spain is the most popular European country in terms of tourism and France is the second most popular country in terms of tourism, according to the WTM report, the report predicts that Turkey's attractiveness will continue in 2024 and will overtake France as the second most visited country in Europe. WTM forecasts that tourism growth in Spain, France and Turkey will continue, increasing by 74, 80 and 72 per cent respectively.

Turkey is on its way to become the second most visited country in Europe in 2024!

Greece is a popular destination for tourists, but the high demand has led to issues with overcrowding and limited public access to beaches. Many businesses, like restaurants and hotels, have claimed large portions of the sandy areas for their own use. This has caused locals to protest for beach space, and now the Greek Prime Minister has introduced a new ‘beach bill’ to address these concerns.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Under the new rules, starting in the spring, 70 percent of beaches must be free of sunbeds to prevent overcrowding. In protected areas, this requirement increases to 85 percent, and in ecologically sensitive areas, sunbeds will be completely banned. Additionally, a distance of at least four meters must be maintained between sunbeds and the shoreline to ensure easy access to the sea for everyone.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
While these rules aim to limit the dominance of beachfront businesses, concessions for beach activities will still be allowed through online auctions. To enforce compliance with the rules, drones will be used to monitor beaches.

Looking for a worry-free vacation with guaranteed availability of beach chairs? Here are some hotel recommendations where you won't have to worry about the limited number of sunbeds:

Mitsis Cretan Village Beach Hotel - the village style hotel in Crete is the perfect choice for an active vacation with children
Amirandes Grecotel Boutique Resort - a high-end hotel located on the  sandy coastline, catering to couples and families.
Mitsis Royal Mare Thalasso &amp; Spa Resort - hotel with spacious and picturesque  grounds by the sea, where guests can rejuvenate at one of Crete's best SPA centers.

The replacement, configuration and testing of the security screening equipment, which took a month and a half, was completed a week ahead of schedule and, according to Tarvi Pihlakas, Aviation Security Manager at Tallinn Airport, passengers can now pass through security screening more comfortably: “Passengers no longer have to take liquids, laptops and other large pieces of technology out of their hand luggage and place them in a separate box – this will also reduce the time spent at security screening.” Pihlakas adds that the new generation of security screening equipment from Rapiscan Systems will help ensure security screening capacity even when passenger numbers increase.
Restrictions on the liquids that can be carried in hand luggage changed as well. Until now, all liquids had to be packed in containers no bigger than 100 millilitres and passengers could carry a total of 1 litre of liquids, which had to be packed in a resealable plastic bag, but they can now carry liquids in containers of up to two litres and there is no limit on the total volume. This means that all large shampoos, sunscreens and toothpaste tubes, as well as soft drinks and liquid foodstuffs, can be placed in hand luggage. However, passengers must ensure that the weight of their hand baggage is within the weight limits set by the airline.
Separate rules still apply to aerosols: no more than 500 millilitre containers of aerosols may be carried in hand luggage, and a total of two litres of aerosols may be carried in hand luggage per passenger.
Tarvi Pihlakas confirms that aviation security requirements were not compromised during the installation period: “Safety is paramount in aviation and all rules must be followed when changes are made. We’re very grateful for the patience of passengers during the transition period, when security screening sometimes involved unusually long waits. The team has been trained and we’ll do our best to make the security screening process quicker and more convenient in the future.”
However, passengers are still advised to arrive at the airport two hours before the start of their journey, as there is sometimes a longer wait to check in baggage, and queues can also occur at security during peak times when there are several flights and hundreds of passengers.
