Just found your vlogs & thrilled as your holidays look like our holidays - full of food & drink & off the beaten (more local & affordable) track which we love Xx Flossy & Erik

@ParksTravelGuide Год назад

Hey there! We try and incorporate something for everyone, although we genuinely don't like the 'touristy' areas. We escaped Kardamena in Kos to go to the neighbouring island of Kalymnos as we got sick of seeing full English breakfasts and pints of Carling advertised. Local is always best and we always travel for the food as it's a huge importance to really appreciate where you are. We're both thrilled you've enjoyed watching what we've done and are glad to have you both with us on our journey. Your support means a lot to us. Take care Flossy and Erik! John & Becky x

@MOONWALKERLEE Год назад

@@ParksTravelGuide You are very welcome. I will most definitely watch it. It’s hard to find good content of Marmaris. Myself and my family absolutely love it there. We have been going for a few years now but sadly had to go to Malta instead last year. We’re going for 28 nights so we can explore down by the marina. I always expected it to be expensive down that end. So I’m looking forward now, especially to have a decent cocktail 🍸. I really want to try the dessert kuneffe and now after watching borak too. Can’t wait to see your next vlog. Cheers guys 👍.x

@ParksTravelGuide Год назад

@@MOONWALKERLEE The Marina used to be expensive and some places still are overall. Don't get me wrong, the food prices will probably be higher as they hope to attract people eating with the special prices on the drinks but there's no pressure to eat at the ones who have the drinks offers. Finding Mugla Kofteci is something you shouldn't miss out on either. If you go to the back of the bazaar (Turkish side) and see Medusa Diamond and a sports shop opposite each other, go down that street and take the first right past like a Turkish chicken fast food chain shop. Follow it down and you'll see Mis Cafe (which was filmed), a greengrocer and then the restaurant after that. If you notice any faces be sure to tell them Merhaba from us! Have a great trip x

@ParksTravelGuide 24 дня назад

Hey Wayne. 2 very different places. In fact polar opposites. It depends if you like it quiet or you want everything on your doorstep. Either way, a Dolmus runs over to Turunç and back and boats as well. It's a bit of a journey by road though. To us Turunç is well worth a day visit but not for us to stay in. It's horses for courses though. Thanks very much for watching 🙂

Interesting video. I was there in 2000 so it is interesting to see how it has changed.

@ParksTravelGuide Год назад

Hey Richard. Things have changed massively over those 22 years for sure, but in our opinion it's not all for the better. As Marmaris became more touristy we feel it lost a lot of it's charm. Where once stood independent small Turkish businesses are now replaced with restaurants and bars serving full English breakfasts and Sunday dinners, but this has also pushed the prices up too. It's still beautiful, but we prefer the local end to the tourist one. Thanks for watching!

WOW …. The food……Turkish/Greek……AMAZING, very similar places. Hope you had the best time 😃 minus the stairs John 🫣🤭😂

@ParksTravelGuide 2 года назад

Yeeeees Kezza! You're here! Parga sounds great. We've done a fair bit of Greece but not that area. The food was amazing once we found the backstreet 'traditional' places and not the tourist muck they slop out onto a plate. Good to hear from you love, all the best xx

Great video, we’ve been going to marmaris for the past 16 years, it’s a great place, all you need is be polite and people are polite back, it does help I’m on the tall and large size. But it is a great place. We got friendly with the hotel staff on our first visit, we have used the same hotel for every visit, sometimes twice/ three times a year, even went to some of the youngsters weddings, they introduced us to the Turkish side of marmaris, where they eat out and socialise, it’s the side we prefer, we just have the odd mad night with the tourists

We went to marmaris in early August and followed your recommendation for mugla koftecisi, unfortunately they had no tables, so we sat outside next door to it in a little place called Park kofte. The food was AMAZING and dirt cheap. Slaps the hell out of those overpriced English pubs you see everywhere. I highly recommend them, the old guy in there is lovely. Also I had a turkish shave and haircut in the bazaar. Be very careful because they say you need this and that, and I ended up paying over £30 🙄 my bad haha. But the holiday was phenomenal! Thanks John and Becky for the amazing recommendations!

Hey there! Since our vlog went out we hear they have been crazy busy with tourists and also the locals...we hope we can get a table next time!

Hi guys, loved the video as always! Would you ever consider daily vlogs when you’re at home during your daily life? I don’t know what you guys do for work but it’d be really interesting to see what you guys get up to when you’re not in the sun 🤣 xx

@ParksTravelGuide 2 года назад

Hey Emily. Unfortunately there's not much to film if we did it daily but it's lovely to hear that you'd want a daily dose of the Parks! Because of our shifts we don't often see each other or get many days off together most weeks. Catching up on sleep is normally the main highlight or doing the big shop at Morrisons. Nobody wants to watch me snoring or deciding if it's going to be plums or grapes for work this week! Haha! I'm a bit of a fan of the real ale and people watching at our local Wetherspoon's though. We'll occasionally pop into Leeds, have a curry in Bradford or catch up with some friends but it's few and far between these days. I (John) work for the Yorkshire Ambulance Service as a Dispatcher/Controller and send the ambulance crews on jobs. Becky works for an airline (which we can't name because of her contract) just up the road at Leeds Bradford Airport as a Duty Manager. We both work 12 hour shifts days and nights and we have very little free time...so they would be pretty boring vlogs! We are floating ideas about potentially a couple of local ish vlogs as we don't travel abroad during July and August due to the astronomical prices, but again it depends on time so we can't set anything in stone. What I will say is that you may be seeing a little more of us from the end of November. Curious? Of course you are! All will be revealed in the next week or two. Thanks for commenting love and we're really grateful for your continued support x

@emilybmx472 2 года назад

Thank you so much for your reply! That’s such a coincidence that you work for YAS, I’m a student paramedic at Bradford uni so I will be working for them when I’m qualified. I feel you on the shifts not matching up, my girlfriend is an apprentice nurse so it happens to us aswell, I suppose it makes you more grateful and enjoy the time you do have together🤣 That sounds very exciting though I look forward to watching the videos in future, and you never know you might send me to a job one day🤣 thank you xx

Be getting another new watch.

@steheywood1 Год назад

Cheers! I did the Dalyan boat trip last time, with the turtles etc, but didnt use your favoured Mares company. So this time i will use them but i want to do the Cleopatra Island full day boat trip, have you done that 1 before? Also is Içmeler & its beach worth doing too, just for a day. I went to Turunç last time, but not there, i only passed thru it.

@ParksTravelGuide Год назад

We haven't in all honesty. Mares are the best priced in resort from what we've found and their shop inside the big Migros is great if you want to sort it out face to face, or simply book on their website at your leisure. Icmeler is nice and has the better beach but quieter than Marmaris. I'd definitely recommend checking it out even if only for half a day or a full day...if you get bored then the orange Dolmus runs very frequently back to Marmaris. We had planned to film it but sadly didn't get time as in the 7 days we planned on filming for 3 and having a holiday ourselves, but this quickly turned into 6/7 days. Turunc is worth a stop on a boat or a visit for half a day but we wouldn't stay there. Very jealous you are going as we could smash a kebab right now!

Hi Guys, just found your channel while searching for information about Turkey and Marmaris and thought your content was excellent and very useful. we are going next may for 1 week all inclusive and was wondering how much money to take, we do intend to do a couple of day outs and a meal or to. also would you recommend taking Euros to as well as lira. ☺

@ParksTravelGuide Год назад

Hey Mike. Many thanks for getting in touch. That's exactly why we provide prices so you can roughly tot up in your head how much it might cost you. An average days boat trip is £10-20 and then drinks extra unless you get an all inclusive boat trip which is a little more. Mares tours have a website so you can see their prices for an idea. The drinks quality is very poor though on AI boat trips, they use the same watered down lager on the beach front for the offers..worst pint John has ever had (and as a beer monster that's saying something!). Meals vary depending where you go and what you eat but about £20-£25pp is healthy. Ignore Euros as GBP is usually the currency of choice for shopping. Use lira for meals and in bars, although you can pay by card too almost everywhere. I'm not sure where we will be next May as it will be the back end of our 6 Month adventure around Asia and South East Asia but please say Hi for us if you see anyone and know we will be very jealous of you!

@ParksTravelGuide Год назад

Hey Mark. I'd say you're probably a 15min walk from the Bazaar from Club Julian in the Armutalan area. It's probably best to load up Google maps beforehand when you have WiFi so you can zoom in and get an idea of where it is. At the back of the bazaar look for the Turkish version of sports direct, go down the side of it between that and Medusa diamond, take the first right and follow it down. You'll see the Turkish bar we went to on the left hand side and it's just after that with privet hedges around it. Hope it helps! John & Becky x

Where is the Turkish quarter at and what are the names and locations of the nice cocktail 🍸 bar you stopped at and also the local place you had the Raki and board games located TY 😉

@ParksTravelGuide 5 месяцев назад

Hey Stuart. The names should be listed in the vlog along with prices as we usually show the exterior as part of our filming, although as this was filmed in June 2022 you can expect things have gone up. The Turkish quarter is behind the bazaar. If you Google DeFacto then that's on the main street. DeFacto is a bit like our Matalan I'd say and well worth a look. Mis cafe is a street behind this. Take a left a bit further down between our equivalent of sports direct and the fantastic Medusa Diamond and you'll see Turkey's answer to Nandos. Take a right down there and Mis Cafe will be on your left about 40-50 metres down. Opposite that is Royal Maris where the baklava and Borek scene was filmed too. A bit further down you have a small çay (tea) shop which was about 3TL. Unfortunately I've had word that Mugla Koftesci (2 doors down on the corner from Mis Cafe has sadly closed for reasons unknown, they have possibly moved as we heard our vlog meant they got very busy very quickly which was good to hear. Cocktail wise we're a bit at a loss without re-watching the vlog. Our best guess is it's on the Marina and either Baris Cafe or the one next door but one as both had equally cheap beer prices although I vaguely remember Becky saying the cocktail was better in the bar next door but one to Baris. You'll probably notice it. June is a great time to go and normally one when we visit. We're hopefully planning on a 2nd Marmaris vlog this year catching up with what's changed etc so there's every possibility you might see us around the resort or hiding from the crowds in the Turkish quarter, somewhere like Mis Cafe. If you do, feel free to stop and have a drink with us. We always post where we are going to be on our social media group pages. Hope the info helps.

@ParksTravelGuide Год назад

Hi Robbie. If time permits then stay over as you'll get stamped in on a free visa anyway, gone are the days of paying £10 for a 90 day one. Ferries run each day approx 8:30am from Marmaris back to Rhodes but you'll probably need to book in advance. You could see what you wanted to during the day stop though to give you a taster of what it's like. On a night depending where you go it's family friendly restaurants with a disco and entertainment, late night shopping at the bazaar which is generally open until 23:00-00:00 or a romantic marina restaurant meal. Have a watch at our Marmaris vlogs and see what you think..we covered quite a bit but all is do-able in a day if you keep a good pace.

@ParksTravelGuide Год назад

Thanks so much for your lovely words. We stayed at the Alkan as we always go self catering. Usually we try and stay nearer to the bazaar end but as we went on a last minute package we didn't have much choice. I'd recommend the Ozturk apartments as I (John) grew up with Mehmet who runs them. They can be a bit pricey though but in a perfect location for the bazaar and dancing fountain. In all honesty there's not really anywhere that's loud, with the exception of the beach front and there aren't many hotels there. The main road where Alkan and Tekin are is steady away and a good distance from the beach area for noise but not too far to walk. In peak season a lot of hotels and apartments have their own entertainment and gets acts in weekly so you might find most of the noise is where you are but music normally finishes or gets turned down at midnight. We may see you as we're hoping to get back in September so keep an eye on our socials. If so, hit us up and we'll have an Efes! Take care x

Basically, somewhere cheap and local hiding from fellow tourists 😆. Liman apartments are also pretty good too apparently according to my family who stayed a few years ago. Basic but clean and functional. They are owned by Liman restaurant who featured in one of the Marmaris vlogs. If you want the tourist area then look at the likes of Alkan, Tekin, Sinem... basically anywhere around Blue Port shopping centre. It's horses for courses but personally we stay well away from it if we can as we prefer it a bit more traditional. If there's anything else give us a shout either on here or our socials 🙂
