Icmeler Online Holiday Forum & Reviews - Turkey

hi everyone im off to icmeler in july cant wait im coming alone as i do every year i love it i was just wanting to know where i can buy some little turkish carpets from as i couldnt see any last year
im looking forward to meetin more people from icr whilst out and about

I'm pretty sure I have seen carpets for sale in Icmeler, although for the life of me I can't remember where the shop was. Hopefully someone else will be able to come up with the answer. Failing that, I'm sure one of the ICR excursions includes a visit to a carpet factory, so that might be an idea.

If you can't get one in Icmeler, if you walk along Marmaris Marina, there is a carpet shop there...or there was last year. Hope this helps

Hi there there are some fantastic carpets but can be very expensive,you can go to the carpet factory or there is a carpet shop in the bazaar i have two but as i say they are not cheap...but do last

There are two carpet shops along the marina in Marmaris - go past the entrances to the bazaar and keep walking. I'm sure you'll find something you like!

Quite a few carpet shops in the bazaar in Marmaris. Webought one on our first visit 10 years ago and it is still as good as new

you don't get a seperate allowance if thats what you mean. Would have to be within normal luggage allowance

We went on an ICR Jeep Safari last year (highly recomended by the way, but don't go in your Sunday best ) and one of the stops was a community carpet factory set up to provide employment for the local women.

Lots and lots of choice and direct shipment to the UK so no Customs or excess baggage issues.

Can't comment on prices though as not to my taste.

Good Luck

PS Don't be tempted by apparently cheaper versions of the Jeep Safari trip. We saw some very unsafe jeeps whilst on ours and at one stage our Land Rover even had to push a competitors USA Jeep out of the river where it got stuck! UK 1 USA 0
