Seferihisar Holidays

As the very first Turkish town to sign up officially to an international slow-living movement called Cittaslow, Seferihisar holidays are all about taking things easy. It’s a trend that encourages visitors to avoid packed itineraries and do things at a more considered pace, taking your time to soak up the atmosphere and drink in your surroundings – quite literally, in fact.

This busy agricultural area is renowned for its tangerines, olive oil and wine, as you’ll discover at its restaurants, which are focused on local sourcing. Sustainability is key to Seferihisar’s slow-living status – you’ll notice that all the streetlights are solar-powered and the shopping bags at the busy markets are biodegradable.

Seferihisar’s idyllic location on the Aegean Coast means that there’s also plenty of dramatic ancient history to learn about and miles of rugged countryside to hike, or even see on two wheels on a cycling tour. Thanks to its easy-going tempo and connection with the deep past, holidays to Seferihisar in Turkey are really rather timeless.
