Brits head for holidays in Turkey and Bulgaria to beat the Euro, reports Holidays-Direct.co.uk

Beating the Euro is the key for Brits looking for the best holiday deals. Holidays in Turkey, Bulgaria and other non-Euro holiday destinations have become new holiday favourites, according to experts at online travel agency Holidays-Direct.co.uk.

The need to avoid the Euro on holidays has lead to a boost in the number of holidays in Turkey and Bulgaria among other non-Euro holiday destinations. There countries offer the best holiday deals not only because the holiday packages are excellent value, but also because pounds go further in non-Euro countries like Turkey and Bulgaria.

There are still great holiday deals to Spain and other traditionally popular holiday destinations available, but holidaymakers worry that using the Euro on holiday is going to cost more while on holiday.

“The best holiday deals can now more often be found in non-Euro countries as the pound doesn’t buy so many Euros anymore. Holidays in Turkey have especially become more popular.

“But holidays in Bulgaria, for example, are also offer great holiday deals as the general prices are lower there than in Turkey. In Bulgaria people can enjoy a beach holiday by the Black Sea at Sunny Beach or Varna, which have both become very popular in recent years," says Jon Pearce from Holidays-Direct.co.uk.

The online travel agency http://www.holidays-direct.co.uk sells cheap holiday deals to the most popular holiday destinations around the world.

Many people have left their summer holiday bookings last minute this year, as they have been waiting to see where the best holiday deals will be. Holidays-Direct is expecting a surge in last minute bookings for summer holidays, as people will have made up their minds where to go on holiday.

Holidays in Turkey – there are a wide range of choices for a holiday in Turkey, from the Black Sea to the Mediterranean. It’s not just a great beach holiday destination, but has plenty of historical and archaeological sites to explore.

Holidays in Bulgaria – the popular resorts in Bulgaria are located by the Black Sea (Sunny Beach, Varna, Golden Sands, Nessebur, Sandanski). Main attraction is for a beach holiday due to sunny weather, sandy beaches and the inexpensive prices.
