We had a lovely day trip. Old Datca is charming and picturesque. However, the market was somewhat underwhelming and on the pricey side. The lunch, on the other hand, was delicious and there was more than enough to go around.

It was a nice day out with friendly tour guides. My only suggestion would be to skip the wine tasting, as it seemed like an unnecessary 10 minute stop. Overall, it was a decent experience.
