Escape the coast and venture into the hills on an exhilarating 4x4 off-road journey through the pine-infused countryside above Bodrum. This day is a delightful blend of thrilling exploration, awe-inspiring views, and relaxed leisure, offering you a glimpse of rural Turkey with plenty of amusement along the way.
Fasten your seatbelt and ascend to Ömerli Tepe, where panoramic vistas across the Bodrum Peninsula set the tone for the day. Then it's time to exchange smooth tarmac for rugged country paths as you traverse through forests and valleys towards the Black Valley – an ideal playground for a 4x4. If the weather is in your favour, anticipate even more merriment with an optional water fight between vehicles, so be ready to get drenched.
After the adrenaline-fuelled excitement, slow down with a well-deserved lunch at Tomato Holiday Village. Savour some downtime here – bask in the sunshine or cool off with a revitalising dip in the pool. The adventure resumes as you navigate along uneven mountain trails to visit a local olive oil factory, where you'll gain insight into one of the region's most cherished traditions. And to conclude the day on a high note, submerge yourself into a natural mud bath – a fun-filled, skin-rejuvenating experience that leaves you feeling relaxed, refreshed and grinning from ear to ear.
