Careful evaluation of Turkey tourism industry revealed some critical growth catalysts shaping industry's present scenario and future prospects. The report reveals that the number of tourists visiting Turkey swelled more than 17-fold in past three decades, from 1.5 Million in 1979 to a record 26.3 Million in 2008. Even in the wake of economic slowdown, the country saw positive growth in international tourist arrivals in 2009. We anticipate that the industry will see impressive growth in coming years backed by serious efforts made by government and various other factors analyzed thoroughly in the report.

Additionally, European countries account for the highest number of tourist arrivals in Turkey, with Germany having the major share of around 4.5 Million tourists in 2008, followed by Russia and UK. The contribution of Europe in the Turkish tourism industry has increased significantly over the past due to strong promotional activities conducted by the Turkish government and also due to the proximity of Europe to the country.
 
Moreover, some unconventional events attracting tourists are increasingly getting popular in the country and abroad and contributing significantly to the industry's growth. Yacht tourism, golf tourism, winter tourism, culture tourism, etc. are attracting foreign tourists to the country and are anticipated to prove decisively beneficial for the industry in long run.
