Spending your summer in Turkey means living in one of the world’s most colorful and historically rich countries during its most vibrant season. Without the structure of school, you’ll follow your host family’s daily rhythm, starting the day with fresh bread, olives, cheese, and tea before heading out to explore.

Summer is festival season, and you might attend open-air concerts, local fairs, or lively coastal celebrations along the Aegean or Mediterranean. Your weekends will vary depending on your host family’s lifestyle, ranging from local trips and visits to bustling centuries-old bazaars to simply relaxing and spending time together in their community.

This is your chance to fully immerse yourself in Turkish traditions, learning to make “baklava”, joining a neighborhood barbecue, or enjoying seaside walks and late-night conversations over tea. Warm weather, rich culture, and legendary hospitality make summer in Turkey a season you’ll never forget.
