Tour overview
The Datça peninsula is the focus of this full-day road excursion. After pickup in the Marmaris area, continue to Old Datça for its stone streets and houses, then to the Saturday market and the present-day town centre. The published day runs roughly 09:00–19:00, so leave your evening plans flexible until the return time is confirmed.
The market gives this route a different rhythm from an archaeological excursion: you can browse produce, almonds, honey and craft stalls before choosing how to spend the free time by the seafront. Lunch is not included. Keep a separate budget for a café or restaurant, and allow time to choose a place to eat during the free period.
The reference programme includes an air-conditioned vehicle, guiding and local return pickup. It is listed for Saturdays, with pickups starting in İçmeler, then Siteler and central Marmaris. Knidos, a boat trip and an organised beach session are not in this itinerary. Wear shoes suitable for walking through the old quarter and tell us about access needs before reserving.
