Only the best
The extra details that make the trip. One more stop. That hidden corner. Only the best stuff makes it in.
You'll need to bring your appetite for this foodie adventure in Marmaris. Kick off your half-day walking food tour when you meet your guide, who will be on hand with local insights during your visit. Next, you'll walk to Hemşin Fırın bakery to try some typical Turkish snacks such as simit or açma - Turkish bagels - along with a glass of Turkish tea.
Wander through the bustling town centre and check out the historic mosque, followed by some free time. You can choose to head inside the mosque for a look around or head straight off to explore the town. Whichever you choose, there's time to shop in the bazaar and get a feel for Marmaris' atmosphere, before meeting your guide back at the mosque. Next, you'll take a short uphill walk to Marmaris Castle, where you'll tour this ancient fortress, built in 1044 BC. Plus, up here is a great spot for photos of the whole city.
Finally, you'll wrap up your sightseeing with a walk along the marina, which is decked out with intricate statues and fountains, before ending your journey at a family-run restaurant that's been around for four generations. It's meze on the menu – no Turkish dinner table would be complete without this selection of sharing dishes – although it isn't just about the food, it's also a way to connect with friends and family. Finish the tour at the Ataturk Statue, where your guide will explain the significance of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, known as the Father of the Turks - the founder of the Republic of Turkey in 1923.
