Itinerary
Out tour starts at approximately 09.30 , when our driver will pick you up in front of your hotel and take you to the country side out of Marmaris.
Jesus Beach, also know as the KizKumu Beach, is one of the most famous beaches near Marmaris. It is located at about 36 km southwest of Marmaris, which is approximately a thirty-minute journey. At this marvelous beach you will be able to walk directly through the gulf, as it is divided by a long sand wall. This wall is a unique natural phenomenon and it is one of the most popular tourist sites.
Bayir is the first village on our list, and here you will get to you will get to visit a local household and get to know Turkish lifestyle and culture. This village is famous for its production of pine honey, and we will visit a local cafeteria where we wil get to taste this delicious honey.
Afterwards, at midday, we will stop for a delicious open buffet lunch. Starters and salad are included in the price as well, but keep in mind that drinks are charged extra.
After lunch, we will head to Turgut, where we will get to visit a local mosque. People visiting the mosque are expected to follow a strict dress code. Our tour guide will tell you more about the religion in Turkey.
While in Turgut, we will also visit a small Carpet School. In this school locals weave carpet and teach youngsters how to weave the too. You will get to witness firsthand how the beautiful Turkish carpets are weaved, as well as learn something about the history of this art form.
On our way from Bayir to Turgut we will also visit Selale (Waterfall). We will spend about half an hour here, so you will have plenty of time to rest and take some amazing camera shots of the gorgeous vegetation and the powerful waterfall itself.
Once our tour is over, our driver will take you back to your hotel. Hotel transfers from your hotel and back are free of extra charge, as they are included in the tour price.

Traveler reviews
Good relaxing day out
Great day out. Our tour guide Sonny was knowledgeable and funny. My boyfriend went in the water at the waterfall. The lunch was good. I'm vegan and had the rice, salad and also bought chips (the chips cost extra, only 200 Turkish lira, and it was a good portion) I enjoyed the olive oil factory and the mosque (there are headscarfs available to borrow at the door) I also enjoyed looking at the beautiful views outside the window. Jesus beach was lovely, and we were able to walk out into the water quite far
Amazing experience and great value - Highly recommended
Had an incredible day with many beautiful sights and lots of information. The highlights were the waterfall and olive factory. Sonny was funny from the start with lots of energy and facts all the way to the end of the trip. Highly recommended!!
