“The boat trip to Green Canyon was good value for money and we were out all day. Both our driver and guide for the day were very helpful and courteous. Lunch was buffet style with two meat options and a fish option and plenty of salad, beans and cous cous. Drink was free on the boat all day and the staff were helpful and pleasant. You did have to pay for drinks at the restaurant but they were reasonably priced. We did have a stop on the way home at an indoor clothing store that was full of non genuine, branded clothing that I generally don’t buy but there was…”
Spend 10 hours traveling from Alanya into the Taurus Mountains for a four-hour Green Canyon cruise, two swimming stops, fishing, and lakeside lunch. English and German guides accompany the trip. Bring a towel, sunscreen, dry clothes, and patience for bumpy roads and busy meal service.

“The excursion was great. Transfer right from the hotel, there was no many people, and food was excellent. There were 2 stops for swimming and we had camera man who printer pictures at the end of the trip (not in price of the excursion). I picked English speaking guide but in reality the guide was speaking mainly in Russian which was only disadvantage. Big thanks to Yusuf for contacting me early on what’s app. He was perfect online support on the entire excursion and after that. Highly recommended!”

Spend 6 to 7 hours on the Alanya coast with hotel pickup, several sea-swimming stops, views of the Old Shipyard and nearby caves, onboard lunch, local soft drinks, and a music-filled foam party. It is a lively, low-cost day at sea, but boat assignment and paid extras can vary.
“DO NOT BOOK THIS TRIP if you want a catamaran. There isn’t one. We picked this trip specifically because we didn’t want a pirate party boat which was what all the other tour operators were offering. And when we go to the dock we got a pirate party boat!!!! The tour operator later told me that was all they offered from Alanya. If you wanted a party boat with lots of rap a dance music (full of f-bombs with half the passengers under 12!) then this would have been an okay trip. But it is NOT as advertised and should be pulled from the site.”
You’ll ride from Side or Alanya to Adrasan, then join a boat for a five-hour Suluada cruise. Expect three swimming stops, white beaches, a Turkish-Mediterranean lunch, toilet and changing facilities, and time for photos or a short walk. Captain Mert may be on your departure.
“Muito tempo em viagem , pouco tempo a visitar o local.”

Pick a strait, a valley or a stretch of coast.
