Cooking and Carpets - I had an amazing afternoon experience at the Etrim Village. I was collected by our tour guide/driver Tony. We were introduced to the family. Everyone was so friendly and kind. We made dishes such as Borek, bread,side dishes as well which was served. We also made Halva sweets. We went carpet making as well. Very interesting and rich history. Such an important history to keep alive. We met local women making the carpets and learned how to make a double knot. We had the meal we cooked for lunch and other spread out feast. Overall, a wonderful way to spend 6 hours outside of bodrum. Worth the experience and highly recommend.

Amazing Experience, Must-Do in Bodrum! - This was an amazing experience, and I would recommend it to everyone. My family and I went together and it was absolutely incredible. We learned so much about Turkish culture and it was extremely interesting. You'll be able to cook authentic Turkish food, explore a small Turkish village, and learn all about the rich culture of Turkish carpets as well. The people who hosted us were extremely kind and knowledgeable, and working alongside them was an experience I'll never forget. Definitely put this on your To-Do List if you are in Bodrum!

Must See Cultural Experience in Authentic Turkish Village - Wasn't sure what to expect from this cooking class at first but was not disappointed. We were shown around by Engin, a very welcoming host who spoke great english. We were immersed in their village life through cooking and carpet making. A very eye opening experience and highly reccomend.
