Side shopping tour with Temple of Apollo visit
Side is a must-see. And what makes it so appealing is that its archaeological relics are scattered around its compact old town. This half-day excursion takes you to this history-drenched headland, where you'll even get to visit a textiles centre and a jewellery or leather centre.After pick-up, we'll drop into a jewellery or leather centre for a browse. Here, you'll be greeted by eager staff ready to show off their gleaming collections. Don't miss out on exploring – gold and leather are especially good finds in Turkey, thanks to prices much friendlier than Europe. And remember, haggling isn't just accepted; it's expected, so flex those negotiation skills for the best deals. We'll also pop by a textile centre for a chance to grab some bargains on the latest fashion trends.Next, head to Side old town for a guided walk. Look out for the Temple of Apollo. Possibly one of the most romantic spots on the Mediterranean coast, it's said that Antony and Cleopatra held love trysts under the temple's shining white columns. Apart from ancient ruins, the picturesque narrow lanes of this once-quiet fishing village are a hive of activity and ideal for a spot of souvenir hunting. You'll have free time to explore on your own – check out the museum in a restored bathhouse, if you want to find out more about Side's fascinating past.
