Prices for last-minute tours to Turkey, Egypt and the UAE have dropped to a minimum

Only 1% of Russians plan to go abroad during the long New Year weekend. These are the data of the VTsIOM poll. And in general, this is understandable – the prices for New Year’s holidays are significantly more expensive than on other days. Meanwhile, now Russian tour operators offer tours to Turkey, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates at unusually low prices. At the same time, in some cases, it will be possible to “grab” the New Year’s banquet.

Russian tourists have already forgotten what last-minute tours are, the prices for which are much lower than usual. Apparently, at the end of the year, tour operators decided to remind them of this. In the Association of Tour Operators of Russia (ATOR) reported that there are a lot of budget holiday options at the end of December in the popular resorts of Turkey, Egypt and the UAE. Moreover, package tours are cheaper than just air tickets. True, there is one thing: the tourists who take advantage of these offers will most likely have to meet the New Year on the road.

Turkey

We already reportedthat according to ATOR in 2023, tours to Turkey will rise in price significantly. But the Russians still have a little time to relax in this country on a budget. And taking into account last-minute offers – even super-budgetary.

So, Intourist offers a tour for two for 7 nights to a 4-star hotel in Antalya with a departure on December 25 for only 44.5 thousand rubles.

There is also a budget option with the capture of New Year’s Eve: a week-long tour to Antalya with a departure on December 25 can be bought for 67 thousand rubles for two. At the same time, the tour includes a New Year’s Gala Dinner on December 31.
