Pamukkale Tour – Hands-on Olive Harvesting in Pamukkale – 4 days

After breakfast, we will pick you up and go to the place where we will harvest olives. You will meet the family and their traditions continue. You will learn to harvest olives by using traditional methods (stick method, hand-made baskets) until lunch. We will have a picnic among the interesting rock formations of the area including sucuk which is the Turkish garlic sausage, cheese, tomatoes, olives, cucumbers, and halva with tea. After a short break, we restart with picking and harvesting olives. The late afternoon is spent processing the olives picked the day before with the mother of the family, both çekişke (kırma) and dime olives. Processed olives can be taken home as gifts by our guests. Those who desire to relax after such a long day shall have the opportunity to enjoy the hammam in their hotel.
