Admire the distinctive village houses
Taste the traditional Turkish cuisine
We invite you to let your imagination run free and vividly picture just how arduous and precious the process of extracting "liquid gold"—olive oil—from these massive stones was in that long-vanished era.
There—where the paths of the Yörük= nomads have endured through time and nature speaks its own language—an encounter with the soul of Anatolia awaits.
With the cool mountain air at our backs and hearts full of new stories, then return to your hotels.

Had a super day on your Turkiye Village trip, a big thank you to Kemer for giving us such an insight into past and present history and lives, in excellent English! And to our careful driver. The itinerary was a perfect blend of historic, scenic, environmental,, water activity and food. If pressed to say what was our highlight, I would say the museum at the beginning - but also worth a big mention , the farmers market and the Turkish family house.

We liked that we pretty much got the tour to ourselves, we got picked up from our hotel, went to different locations (stunning btw) tour guide was sweet, lovely and very knowledgeable. Got a whole bout tour for just us and the same with a museum tour. 10/10. Might be good to just clarify pricing but all in all highly recommend!

Eine Führung in einer Kleingruppe ist sehr angenehm. Ich war am 23.4. sogar allein. Mit dem Kleinbus in's Hinterland, mit einem Besuch in einem kleinen Museum (gute 1/2 h) als Einstieg in die Geschichte der Region, vielen kleinen Stopps und immer interessant erklärt, einem Mittag aneinem Stausee, einer Bootstour mit Badestopp. Das war ein wunderbarer Tag und jeden Cent wert. Danke.

This excursion was practically perfect. All the places visited, from the mosque, to the Roman ruins, from the bazaar to the boat trip, were great. The guide had great historical and medicinal plant knowledge, and both he and the driver were very friendly and even helped with our children. The only bad thing was the restaurant where we had lunch, the food wasn't much, we didn't have anything for our eldest son and they rushed it a bit. A part of that it was a fantastic day.
