Stepping off the usual well-trodden tourist tracks takes you deep into the countryside around Marmaris. Go beyond the resort's buzz to the tranquility of rural life, exploring the lesser known areas of Marmaris and discovering the traditional side of village life.
Marmaris was once just a small fishing village and you can see the quieter side of life still ongoing in the surrounding areas. Your guide will explain some of the history and stories of the area on a scenic drive to the village of Bayır, where you'll be greeted by the legendary wishing tree. Sip on a warm çay as our guide explains the story before you take a look around the lanes.
Next, we'll meander through the countryside to the Turgut waterfalls. Here, you can listen to the soothing sounds of cascading water and photograph the fairytale scenery. The journey continues to the Marmaris Honey House, where you'll enjoy a tasting of local pine honey. Discover the secrets behind its unique flavour and find out why it's so famous in the region.
