VILLAGE TOUR

Countryside of Turkey

A village is the only place where you can experience real Turkish life. In big cities, and even in towns, you will see the modern side of Turkey, you will not get the taste of the country enough until you are in a village. Only there you will feel how nice it is to be in Turkey.

Village people, whose main characteristic is hospitality, have been keeping their traditional way of life and culture for centuries. In a village, they live peacefully like a big family, and they regard the people coming to the village as their guests.

So, when you are in the village you will be invited first to a tea-house, like a cafe, and then to one of their homes. You will see how they live and you will taste real home-made Turkish food. The vegetables are picked fresh from the garden, they use their own olive oil and the bread is also home-made. We guarantee that you will enjoy your meal in the village. You will also see the young women weaving carpets and learn how they obtain colors from the trees or vegetables. If you wish to buy a carpet, you can choose one and perhaps even meet with the lady who wove it.
