Top places in Turkey to travel with your toddler(s)

If you're looking for a holiday and you're not leaving the kids with the babysitter, here's the top 5 spots to consider when you come to Turkey. Cappadocia The fairytale landscape is like nothing they've ever seen before, and even if you're not sure they'll love going up in a hot air balloon with you, waking up with them at the crack of dawn to see the thousands of balloons all go up together is a sight they'll certainly never forget. Eskişehir The highlight for kids in Eskişehir is Sazova Park, whose fairytale castle is simply magical. The park has been intentionally designed to appeal both to kids and to adults, with an excellent café inside to take a break while the kids run around the castle. Istanbul It is a gorgeous city, and full of parks and playgrounds for kids. Antalya For older kids, many of these activities are educational while for younger kids there are bouncy castles, ball pits, and of course the endless array of water slides and types of pools that kids just can't get enough of. Bodrum/ Marmaris Travel with another family and take turns watching the kids while the others go out and enjoy themselves on the town with a dinner and a night out.
