Itinerary
Capture panoramic views from the iconic whitewashed windmills overlooking the bay.
Step back in time at the surviving gateway of King Mausolus’s ancient city.
Walk through history at this 4th-century BC amphitheater that once held 13,000 spectators.
Stand where one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World once rose in grandeur.
Explore the medieval fortress of the Knights of St. John and uncover treasures from ancient shipwrecks to the Carian Princess.
Your adventure begins in Bodrum city center, where you’ll meet your friendly local guide. Stroll through the old town’s narrow lanes lined with whitewashed houses, bustling bazaars, and boutique shops. From Turkish delights and local spices to handcrafted leather, textiles, and jewelry, the variety is endless — you can find everything from genuine artisan goods to playful “genuine fakes”! As you walk, enjoy the warm, welcoming atmosphere of local traders — often offering a drink and a smile as you browse. You’ll visit iconic spots such as the Bodrum Castle (from the outside), the Marina, Bar Street, and charming coffee shops, each adding to the city’s lively character. Don’t miss the chance to explore carpet, kilim, and rug stores, where you’ll learn the meaning behind traditional Turkish weaving patterns and symbols. Here, you can purchase authentic handmade pieces — often at half the price you’d find in your home country.

About Bodrum
Bodrum, on Turkey's Aegean coast, is a whitewashed harbour town beneath a Crusader castle, with ancient ruins and coves, facing the Greek island of Kos.
Bodrum curves around two bays beneath the Castle of St Peter, a fortress built by the Knights of St John in the fifteenth century and now home to a museum of underwater archaeology. The town stands on the site of ancient Halicarnassus, birthplace of the historian Herodotus, and the remains of the Mausoleum, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, lie in a quiet garden.
Top-ranked sights in Bodrum: Castle of St. Peter (Bodrum Castle), Orak Island, Black Island (Kara Ada).
