It is a lovely setting with very friendly "teachers". We learned to roll grape leaves, and make Greek (not very sweet) halvah. We were provided really delicious small "plates" for lunch (with the offer of more!), which was great. We didn't actually cook very much or even see the start to finish of what we made. We cut a great squash- but didn't eat anything with grated squash. (We were given chances of squash in a sweet syrup, and we rolled a lot of dolmas, but we think we were probably given food already prepared, and not the stuff we actually made. Like I said, the food was absolutely delicious and the setting was relaxing, but as for a cooking class, don;t expect recipes or much hands on learning.

My guide Tony was reliable, helpful, knowledgeable and as a foreign solo female travelling, safety is priority. Tony arrived on time at agreed location taking me to the village of Etrim to learn of the sustainability, self sufficient, cooperative community who continue to hand weave beautiful traditional carpets. I had a warm and wonderful time in the kitchen helping the women prepare food and enjoyed the most gorgeous fresh traditional fare in the garden setting. I genuinely recommend if you’re in Bodrum not to miss the tour and Tony as your guide.

We prepared amazing Gözleme on wooden fire and cooked the best dolma we ever had. Everything was so fresh! The following Meze was great and more than we could eat. We felt very comfortable with the lovely people in the village. We loved our tour guide Tony. He gave us a perfect pick up, a wonderful trip through the stunning landscape and an interesting tour in the village. Altogether, we had a wonderful day.

I had an amazing afternoon experience at the Etrim Village. I was collected by our tour guide/driver Tony. We were introduced to the family. Everyone was so friendly and kind. We made dishes such as Borek, bread,side dishes as well which was served. We also made Halva sweets. We went carpet making as well. Very interesting and rich history. Such an important history to keep alive. We met local women making the carpets and learned how to make a double knot. We had the meal we cooked for lunch and other spread out feast. Overall, a wonderful way to spend 6 hours outside of bodrum. Worth the experience and highly recommend.

This was an amazing experience, and I would recommend it to everyone. My family and I went together and it was absolutely incredible. We learned so much about Turkish culture and it was extremely interesting. You'll be able to cook authentic Turkish food, explore a small Turkish village, and learn all about the rich culture of Turkish carpets as well. The people who hosted us were extremely kind and knowledgeable, and working alongside them was an experience I'll never forget. Definitely put this on your To-Do List if you are in Bodrum!

More of an Eating class than a Cooking class, which isn't necessarily a complaint, lol!
