Bodrum City Tour

Your guide will be waiting for you at the port to give you a warm welcome. From there, you’ll head to Bodrum Castle, also known as the Castle of St. John, perched on a rocky peninsula where the ancient Carian civilization once thrived. This impressive fortress, often called St. Peter’s Castle, overlooks the harbor with its five grand towers and seven gates. During your visit, you’ll explore the Bodrum Museum of Underwater Archaeology housed within the castle. Highlights include the dungeon, the hidden museum in the Snake Tower, as well as the German, English, and French towers. You’ll also get to see fascinating exhibits, such as ancient coins and jewelry.

Next, you’ll visit the Ancient Theatre of Halicarnassos, a remarkable structure from the 4th century BC. This well-preserved amphitheater, once able to accommodate up to 5,000 spectators, offers a glimpse into the grandeur of ancient performances and gatherings

Up next, we’ll head to the iconic windmills overlooking Bodrum harbor. Built from stone and reinforced with wooden beams, these windmills served the local community from the 18th century until the 1970s. Now undergoing restoration, they stand proudly on the hill as a charming tourist attraction. Your guide will make a stop here for photos, offering you a chance to capture the panoramic views and the historic charm of the windmills.

Next, you’ll experience authentic village life in Etrim Village, renowned for its beautifully handcrafted, hand-knotted carpets. The intricate weaving techniques, passed down through generations, are a testament to the village’s rich cultural heritage. As the tour concludes, we’ll ensure a timely return to Bodrum port, and we look forward to welcoming you on future adventures.
