Why you’ll love this…

What to expect

Why settle for just seeing Greece while you're here? Turkey's just a short distance away and this trip offers a great taste of its culture and sights. Your adventure kicks off with a quick ride across the Aegean to Bodrum, a picturesque town nestled between two bays and divided by a historic crusader castle – it's like stepping into a postcard.

Once you arrive, you can choose between a guided tour or exploring on your own. If you go for the tour, you'll hit all of Bodrum's main landmarks and best viewpoints, with plenty of chances to snap photos of the town and its yacht-filled harbour from above. There's a chance to take a look at the old town's bustling bazaar, too.

Feeling more like a solo explorer? Shopping-wise, you'll be spoilt for choice, with every street loaded with shops and stalls selling spices, carpets and leather goods. Haggle your heart out, sip on Turkish coffee or just soak up the sights and sounds before boarding the boat for your return.

    Spild af tid! Vi kunne lige så godt selv have købt færgebillet og rejst over på egen hånd. Den guidede tur var kedelig og tam, guiden svær at forstå og stoppet i butikken ganske unødvendig - det var samme varer som alle andre steder og til overpris! De 3 timer, vi havde i byen, var alt for lang tid! Og så var der lige den detalje, at vi ikke blev afhentet/kontaktet af guide den oprindelige turdag!! Turen blev ombooket, men vi spildte en masse tid! Alt i alt en pænt skuffende oplevelse!!

    Op de afgesproken tijd was er niemand van Tui. Kwam pas 20 min. later. Dat vonden we erg verwarrend,wisten niet zo goed wat te doen. Bleek dat die begeleider meekwam met reizigers met transfer. Dit was een grote groep waardoor het was uitgelopen. We hadden de reis bij Tui contactpersoon geboekt. Deze had beter kunnen aangeven dat de tijd kan uitlopen. In Bodrum ook de citytour gedaan. De Engelstalige gids was helaas slecht te volgen. Vond de citytour niet heel bijzonder.

    De Tui-hostess kwam te laat aan op het punt van afspraak waarbij wij in het ongewisse waren of de trip al dan niet kon doorgaan. De boottocht op zich is genieten, van de zalige wind en het mooie uitzicht. De rondleiding was heel commercieel gericht. De gids dweepte met Turkije en ratelde maar door over onzinnige dingen. Al bij al een leuke boottocht, maar met veel wachttijden en een zinloze gids.

    Wir sind selber angereist und haben 15 Minuten auf Tui gewartet. Wir haben über Tui gebucht, weil wir davon ausgegangen sind, das die Mitarbeiter deutsch sprechen können.

    De busreis met gids was geen meerwaarde ( enkel Engels en niet verstaanbaar). De bezochte plaatsen waren de tijd niet waard. De trip was pas voorzien om 11.15u en nog veel later waardoor er amper vrije tijd overbleef in Bodrum. Kortom het geld niet waard!
