Saudi Prince rides bicycle on streets of Turkish resort Bodrum during holiday
MUĞLA – Anadolu Agency
The prince and his family were enjoying the first day of their luxury holiday in the Turkish resort.
A numbers of bodyguards with bicycles accompanied the prince as he toured Bodrum’s Türkbükü area on his bicycle.
Local authorities also tightened security measures in the area, with gendarmerie forces on duty on the streets used by the Saudi prince.
Prince Talal later returned to the hotel which he is staying, and at noon he and his family took a special yacht from Bodrum’s Göltürkbükü. The ultra-luxurious yacht, named “Kingdom 5 KR,” hosts a helicopter on its room.
Speedboats were stationed around the yacht while Prince Talal and his family rode jet-skis.
The prince and his family had arrived in Bodrum early on Aug. 14 for a holiday.
The private jumbo jet carrying them landed at the Milas-Bodrum Airport under tight security measures. The family got into six VIP cars and one bus waiting on the apron and they were escorted to the city center by two police vehicles and security guards.
Around 300 items of luggage and 30 bicycles were transferred to the truck and their belongings were taken to a villa in the Göltürkbükü neighborhood.
The Saudi prince and his family will reportedly stay in Bodrum for a week and will later embark on a blue voyage with a private yacht.
