North Africa Becomes a Top Holiday Destination During Eid

With favorable weather conditions throughout the year, unspoiled Mediterranean beaches, and rich cultural heritage, three North African countries — Egypt, Morocco, and Tunisia — have become increasingly popular among holidaymakers.

Egypt offers not only a seaside holiday but also comprehensive tour packages covering Cairo, the Pyramids of Giza, and the Nile River, combining relaxation with exploration.

Morocco stands out by blending gastronomy with unique city experiences. Tunisia attracts visitors with its desert lifestyle, traditional markets, and distinctive North African cuisine.

Visa-free or easy visa procedures and affordable travel options have made these three countries especially attractive to Turkish travelers looking to spend their holidays abroad.

As interest in international travel increases during Ramadan Bayram and the following spring months, Coral Travel aims to expand the share of North African destinations within its total outbound sales.

Highlighting a significant increase in reservations to North Africa compared to previous years, Coral Travel Türkiye General Manager Mehmet Kamçı stated:
“We see North Africa as a strong growth area for the 2026 season. Egypt continues to welcome an increasing number of tourists from Türkiye each year. Morocco stands out with its cultural diversity, exotic atmosphere, and authenticity.”

A Professional Fam Trip to Morocco

Between 14–19 February, Coral Travel organized a Fam Trip to Morocco — one of the region’s rising destinations — with a group of 35 tourism professionals from across Türkiye.

During the five-day program, Coral Travel executives and travel agents had the opportunity to closely explore Rabat, Fes, Chefchaouen, Marrakech, Casablanca, and Essaouira.

Evaluations emphasized Morocco’s position as one of Africa’s strongest tourism destinations, offering culture, gastronomy, and urban experiences together. Its visa-free status was highlighted as a strong advantage for Turkish tourists.

Tunisia: Sea and History Combined

Tunisia has become one of the most demanded destinations during Ramadan Bayram, particularly for its desert experiences, traditional markets, and North African cuisine. Coral Travel offers both seaside holidays and cultural city programs in Tunisia, creating attractive short-break options for holidaymakers during the festive period. Its affordable pricing and visa-free access make Tunisia a compelling choice.

High Demand for Eid Period

Through its partnership with Ziraat Bankası, Coral Travel offers Bankkart holders up to 8,500 TL in Bankkart Lira benefits, providing payment flexibility. It was also announced that special Eid holiday quotas are filling up rapidly.
