Village Life - Etrim Village - Bodrum
  • Tip Rating:
  • We booked this trip with our holiday rep Murat (he was surprised that three young girls would spare a days partying in Bodrum for a little culture!!! cheeky). It cost us £8 each and lasted from 5pm until 10:30pm, we drove for 1 hr outside of Gumbet until we reached a traditional Turkish village, this one was called Etrim, and once we were there we visited a mosque and the oldest house in the village (approx 160 years old?? i think). We were introduced to an old married couple, the woman taught us how to weave a Turkish carpet, another lady showed us how to spin yarn from wool (yes women do a lot of hard work in this country!). Anyway we ended the evening by sitting down to lovely traditional meal served with freshly baked local bread with a glass of wine and watched as the sun went down, soon after we made our way back to the hotel. AND THEN WE WENT OUT AND PARTIED!!!

    Nice beaches by "gulet"
  • Tip Rating:
  • Don't miss a gulet (traditional turkish boat) trip. There is a lot of beautiful bays around Bodrum. Besides budget charters you can rent a private one starting from US$ 300/day.

    Walking on water
    Rabbit island at Gumsuluk is worth a visit. The waterfront has 10 or so restaurants (ranging from simple local fare to well-kept touristy places) and from there you can walk some 50 yards along an underwater "path" to the island. The water comes up to about waist height - quite an experience....

    The island itself is quite small but has very nice sea views.
