Marmaris day trip with shopping and free time

4.1/5
316 reviews

Venturing to a completely different country is always an exciting prospect. Sail across to Turkey and spend the day exploring the buzzing port town of Marmaris and visiting a bazaar and gold factory on this full day tour.

It's an early morning start as you head for the port – but this tour's worth getting up for. You'll set sail across the waters, arriving just in time for a guided city tour and a quick stop at a panoramic viewpoint to grab those all-important snaps of Marmaris. Then, you'll make tracks to a local gold centre, where you can practice your haggling skills.

You'll head to the old town next, where you'll have plenty of time to explore its winding streets and huge bazaar. Jam-packed full of bargains, it's a great place to pick up any souvenirs to take home. And no trip to Turkey would be complete without the chance to sample some local delicacies such as Turkish delight or traditional tea. After all the excitement, there's a relaxing late afternoon boat ride back to Rhodes.

    I bought a watch from the marmaris gold centre and it’s faulty. Been in touch with them and they keep saying they will refund me but haven’t. They are a con and would strongly advise you do not do trips to them anymore. I would of thought also TUI would check these places out and now I’m £251 out of pocket

    A gentle introduction to Turkey with great shopping opportunities - IF you like high-pressure sales tactics everywhere you go. Yes, it was billed as a shopping trip but each visit had a brief introduction with a more extended period where were encouraged to spend money. The 'bazaar' was interesting but a bit of a culture shock when we're used to being able to browse in shops almost completely free from hassle. It was great to hear and learn a bit about Turkey and we'd have liked a lot more.

    The boat crossing was more than we were told, would benefit from having the option to opt out of the gold centre and Turkish delight factory. The coach driver was lovely and the guide was excellent . Pick up time we were given in the morning , they were 15mins late. Pick up place told was wrong side of road so we had to cross a busy road

    Shopping was great, trip to sweet factory really good. Trip to gold place was boring and pointless, not at all interesting just a sales opportunity for them
