Israeli tourists prefer Antalya

"Luxurious passenger ship ‘Club 2’ will travel to Santorini-Limasol and Antalya. Some 20 journeys will be organized to Antalya port as of August 2. More than 16,000 tourists have arrived in Antalya in luxurious ships since the beginning of the year. We expected this figure will be over 36,000. Antalya port is drawing the attention of tourists and we are in contact with a number of leading ship firms in the world," said Yalman.

Noting that Antalya port was also preferred as a cargo transportation, Yalman said that Turkey’s biggest container transportation firm Arkas would carry 20,000 containers annually in Antalya port.
