Breakfast and Lunch included)

After a hearty breakfast, we will drive to a hobby village where you will have the unique opportunity to experience planting saplings. Istanbul is not just known for its historical, outdoor, and modern tourist attractions, but also for its growing agritourism scene. Turkey, like many other countries, has seen a rise in agritourism in recent years. Istanbulites are also keen to spend their free time in nature, and they want their children to experience it too. That's why local governments and private affiliates have founded various hobby gardens throughout the city.

Before we begin the farming activities, we will start with a comprehensive farming class. Even if you have no prior experience in farming, there's no need to worry, as our expert will guide you through every step of the way. Get ready to learn and have fun as we delve into the world of farming together!

You'll be joining in activities such as fertilizing the soil, picking fresh fruits and vegetables, and more. For lunch, we'll head into the woods, where our chef will be preparing a delicious BBQ. You can choose to either cook the BBQ or the vegetables yourself, or sit back and let our chef take care of it.

Get ready to immerse yourself in the farming lifestyle and enjoy a day full of fresh air, sunshine, and good food! Overnight in Istanbul.

PS: Due to the season, we may have an orchard visit and gather the fresh fruits from their branches.

(Breakfast, included)

Tekirdag, located in northwestern Turkey, is known for its fertile lands that are suitable for agriculture. The region is particularly famous for its sunflower and grape cultivation. Tekirdag's sunflowers are grown for their seeds, while the grapes are used to make wine. The local vineyards in Tekirdag produce a range of red and white wines, including the popular Tekirdag Rakisi, a traditional Turkish alcoholic drink made from distilled grape skins and aniseed.

In Tekirdag, we first visit a sunflower field and make some harvest. Along the season, many amateur and professional photographers visited the site too. You will have amazing selfies; hence, it will be better to check your camera twice.

After lunch, we will embark on a visit to a vineyard for grape harvesting. You'll get to experience firsthand how the grapes are harvested and learn about the wine-making process. Finally, we will conclude the tour with a visit to the vinehouse, where you'll get to taste some locally produced cheeses and sample the delicious wines made from the grapes. After the tour we will drive back to Istanbul. Overnight in Istanbul.
