Tour firm promises affordable packages

Holiday Factory, which claims to be “the first tour operator in the Gulf region” has launched its services in Qatar and promised to offer “exciting and affordable” package deals for the country’s residents.   After “getting established” in the United Arab Emirates market, the company now brings its holiday package deals to Qatar, a key country in the region, a company statement said. Holiday Factory CEO Hakan Bakar said: “Qatar is an unexplored outbound market with a huge growing mid-level income group looking for affordable holidays. This group wants to travel, but there aren’t really affordable options available to them.” “Holiday Factory offers packages with clear and simple pricing and with no hidden cost and taxes,” he added. Holiday Factory offers packages which include flights, hotel accommodation, airport transfers and the services of a tour representative. The company is now offering packages from Qatar to Dubai and Istanbul and quickly expanding its list of destinations. For example, a two-night package to Dubai is available for $199 and three nights to Istanbul for $499 per person.
