How about an exciting adventure on the Köprüçay River? Grab the paddles and hop into a rafting boat, or set off on an exhilarating jeep safari through the lush forests surrounding Side. With the Jeep Safari and Rafting Tour in Antalya, you can enjoy both of these thrilling activities in one day, maximizing your adventure and excitement right from Antalya.
The Antalya region offers stunning natural beauty beyond its famous sea, beaches, and sunshine. Among these wonders, the Köprülü Canyon stands out as one of the most beautiful and well-known places, with rushing rivers and lush greenery. With the Jeep Safari and Rafting Tour in Antalya, you can experience an exciting 2-in-1 adventure. Start with an off-road safari through Side's muddy, dusty, and paved roads, and then enjoy a thrilling rafting tour on the Köprüçay River. Immerse yourself in breathtaking natural landscapes and breathe in the fresh, pine-scented air of the Taurus Mountains throughout the day.
We will pick you up from your hotel in Antalya in our comfortable bus and take you on a one-hour drive to the Manavgat-Side region. There, you will board our 4×4 Jeeps for an exciting three-hour safari. During this off-road adventure, you will pass through forests, villages, orange groves, and ancient monuments. The safari ends at our rafting facility by the river in the village of Taşağıl. Upon arrival, our instructors will brief you about the river and the tour and provide you with life jackets and helmets for rafting. To get used to the cool water, everyone will first participate in a ‘Body-Rafting’ session in the river before the actual rafting adventure begins.
The rafting route spans approximately 14 km, with a lunch break at our restaurant halfway through. The lunch menu includes grilled chicken, rice, salad, and bread. During the rafting, there is a stop by the river where you can enjoy various activities such as swimming, tree climbing, plank jumping, and trekking. At the end of the tour, you will return to the Jeeps, and we will drive you to the meeting point in Side. Your comfortable bus will pick you up and take you back to your hotel in Antalya.
The Köprüçay River, with its level 2+ rapids, makes rafting a safe and enjoyable experience. Each raft has an instructor to assist you as needed. For your comfort, we recommend wearing comfortable, waterproof shoes, excluding flip-flops.
