Where to visit in May

One of the best months to visit the eastern Mediterranean, Turkey is an ideal destination for a May holiday, whether you are looking to explore the classical sites of the Turquoise Coast, relax by the Aegean Sea, or discover the volcanic delights of Cappadocia. Jordan, Israel and Tunisia are other destinations in their prime during May. While it is hot, some very keen pricing can be found in both Egypt and Oman.
