The vibrant minibuses that run around the Bodrum peninsula are home to unforgettable memories for many of Bodrum's visitors.
This one goes to
Torba; a quiet, unspoilt town with some of the cleanest beaches of the entire peninsula...
...while this one goes to Torba's polar opposite,
Gümbet; a nearby town infested by cheap British package tourists and some horrible establishments that cater to their tastes.
The blue one goes to
Bitez, a village right next to Gümbet. I have fond memories of almost every summer spent there, from age three onwards. Sadly, Bitez is being overrun with cheap buildings these days, and its pleasant orange groves are giving way to teeth-like series of mass housing.
Finally, the orange buses operate within Bodrum town itself. As I've told before on this blog, such minibuses are as practical as bars and clubs for getting drunk and meeting new people.
