Elderly Europeans Escaping to Turkey

Stewart International has been in Turkey since 1999 and Turel says that the elderly in the UK, The Netherlands, Germany, and Scandinavia want to move to warmer countries. At first, the destination of choice was Italy, later it changed to Portugal and Spain, but the latest trend is toward Turkey and Croatia, said the Director.

Turkey is taking serious steps to become the “Florida of Europe,” according to Turel, and the coastal line between Alanya and Kusadasi is the most popular site. He says there are crucial issues in marketing and requests that officials take precautionary measures against wrongdoing and unprofessional service delivery from taxi service to restaurant service.
