Additional Information

Bodrum, a high-end resort replete with boutique shops, bars, and eateries, is just a stone’s throw away from a unique chance to explore an untouched mountain hamlet and soak in the simplicity of rural Turkish life that has essentially remained the same for hundreds of years. Interact with the most modest villager, whose magnanimity and warmth are invariably astonishing and who offer a glimpse into a time when cordiality was the norm. Tour the local tea house, mosque, and several residential homes where succulent Turkish dishes and native beverages await your palate. Towards the end of the visit, marvel at the stunning display of handmade kilims and rugs, intricately crafted by the village women.

Interesting and unexpected! - For the price, this tour exceeded expectations. This is not your average tour with a polished tour guide giving you historical information. After a quiet drive into the countryside, the guide gives a tour of a small village and gives a glimpse into the everyday village life. There is a carpet weaving demonstration that includes a visit into the shop to purchase the carpets. The carpets are substantially cheaper than in the metro areas. Just make sure to bargain the price down. 😉 We finished with lunch at the local outdoor restaurant with the local chickens and dogs around us as our guests.
