The west coast of the Bodrum peninsula is packed with hidden gems, rustic villages and romantic seafront promenades. Discover the treasures of this varied coastal region on a full-day tour including a local market visit. Esra, one of our expect local guides, says, ‘This tour is a perfect way to see more of the local area, shining a spotlight on those places favoured by the peninsula's visitors and locals alike.' Your journey begins in Turgutreis, where the silver-domed mosque and spice-scented bazaar offer a sensory delight.Our next stop is Gümüşlük, a village so picturesque you won't be able to resist snapping plenty of photos. Take some time to meander through the narrow streets, with free time to explore and find somewhere to eat lunch. As Esra says, ‘Gümüşlük is such a pretty place with a laid back and lazy atmosphere. We'll head there just in time for you to find somewhere to grab a bite to eat – don't miss out on trying the fresh fish and meze the village is famous for.' In the afternoon, we venture to Derekoy, an artistic haven off the tourist radar. Learn about a local craft made by artisans who use dried gourds to create decorative ornaments, before heading to Yalikavak, a seaside town boasting an ultra-luxurious marina. This Bodrum peninsula tour offers an authentic glimpse into Turkish life, from bustling bazaars to tranquil seaside towns.

We didn’t like the feeder driver part of the journey as we felt very uncomfortable with his erratic driving, drinking coffee and on his mobile phone whilst driving, also he had sliders on his feet. We had over an hour of his driving and I felt nauseous, there was no information given to us that we were meeting another coach. We met the coach and onward journey was fine. The guide was informative, but we didn’t think the places we visited were worth seeing and for the money we paid.

It was a lovely day but we felt really let down by the minibus driver that picked us up and drove us to join the rest of the group. He picked us up in the morning and dropped us off after the trip and was constantly on his phone whilst driving. This wasn't hands free either. The worst occasion was when he had his phone in one hand and a coffee in the other. We felt completely unsafe by his wreckless driving!

Guide was great, very informative, friendly and funny. Liked that there was an option for a cheaper lunch with local food. Ticked all the boxes of places to visit, however the mini buses air con wasn’t the best and it felt abit crowded/ squished.

On the whole glad that we did it. We enjoyed Turguteis Market, the haggling and banter. Lunch was at a beautiful little village with stunning views, I wouldn't recommend the mezze that the guide peddled, plus drinks were overpriced. The view was perfect so we didn't mind too much. It was a long day, pick up 7.15. Told wait at security gate but bus went to reception. Nearly an hour before we joined our tour, no idea why as driver didn't speak English. Guide was entertaining and informative.

Genghis absolutely made this tour. He was very knowledgeable and fun and attentive. Everyone on the tour spoke English except a German couple and Genghis spent time with them explaining the schedule and giving them information in German. It was nice to go and visit three very different places from each other, all in one day. You had time to look around and didn’t feel like you were spending the day on a bus. The set lunch which was arranged on the bus was very nice. Worth a trip.

This trip is a must! We got to see some lovely places which we never would have gone to ourselves. The tour guide was very knowledgable and it was very interesting. The food at the restaurant was amazing and we would definitely go back again. Highly recommend this tour!

Good tour in the peninsula, Mustapha Gengis our guide was very nice and his informations quite interesting. The stop in the Turgutreis food and clothes market is of no interest, better go in a place where we could know more about Turgut the ottoman naval chief commander.

The pick up was far too early that the first destination all shops were either shut or preparing for opening. We did not need as much time at first and last destination. Nice place for lunch
