Tour overview
Muğla is the provincial capital inland from Marmaris, and its weekly market is where many local families do their shopping. Stalls sell clothing, shoes, bags, accessories, household goods and handicrafts, and there is plenty of food around the market for a coffee, tea or lunch. It is a chance to see everyday Turkish life rather than a resort bazaar.
The reference programme runs on Thursdays and lasts about seven hours. An air-conditioned coach collects guests from İçmeler, Armutalan, Siteler and central Marmaris and crosses the hills to Muğla, a drive of around 40 km. After arrival the time is yours to browse, compare prices and eat at your own pace before the coach returns you to your hotel.
Transport, guide and insurance are included; food, drinks and everything you buy are paid separately. Bargaining is normal at many clothing and accessory stalls, while food sellers often keep fixed prices. Carry cash in Turkish lira, keep your bag closed in busy aisles and agree a meeting point and time with the guide before you start shopping.
