Rafting

 

Come with us for a day of adventure away from the beach. Away from the coast, this part of Turkey is something of an adventure playground - created by Mother Nature herself with craggy peaks, fragrant pine and cedar forests and impenetrable river canyons. And it is the latter that this trip focuses on, a white water rafting trip in the Köprülü canyon in the mountains.

After being picked up from your hotel between 08:00 and 09:00 we'll drive up into the mountains heading for the riverside village of Beskonak, where you will be given a safety briefing and don a helmet and life-vest. Then, take your seat, along with your guide in your eight-person raft and get ready to roll. Feel the cool breezes as your raft skims and spins over the waters with everyone laughing and shrieking along the way.

Keep your eyes on the scenery, too. You will raft past steep cliffs and pine forests that most tourists never get to see. It is an exhilarating ride but the rapids are gentle rather than turbulent, so they are perfect for beginners.

Then we will return to the resort, arriving back at between 17:00 and 18:00.

This full-day excursion includes hotel pick up and drop off, transfers, lunch, use of rafting equipment (including helmet) and the services of an English-speaking guide throughout. This trip is not suitable for wheelchairs and the less mobile and for children under the age of 12. Please note that drinks are not included.

Meeting/pick-up point: Pick-up at the hotel.
