Don’t book with viatour!!!!!!!!!!

Boat trip is great - but we paid £100 where as you could buy the same boat trip from the beach front for £30! Viator ripping people off!

Operator response

Hello, I’ve seen your review regarding Viator prices, and I’m sorry for any inconvenience caused. Please note that the same tour can be offered by different suppliers, which is why prices may vary, giving you the option to choose what suits you best. Our own prices are clearly listed on the tour’s webpage, along with the full program details and the inclusions/exclusions. We shall appreciate your kind action to remove the review from our page as we are not Viator but one of the number of suppliers of the Oludeniz Butterfly Valley Boat Trip. Thank you for your understanding.

Excellent boat trip with an exceptional crew

The whole family (5 and 10 year old girl & boy included) hugely enjoyed the experience. The departure was efficient and well communicated. The crew were excellent throughout, everything functioning like a well oiled machine and I marvelled at how they could deliver trays of drinks around a moving vessel! A tab system for food & drinks worked well and the buffet lunch provided surpassed our expectations, fresh fish & chicken grilled to perfection on the side of the boat. The stops were well chosen with just the right amount of time spent at each before moving on. The boat itself was well laid out with plenty of comfortable beds & seating as well as shade when we needed it. The overall atmosphere was very family friendly, respectful and with a local vibe, announcements being delivered mostly in Turkish then briefly translated to English (and all crew did speak excellent English), in stark contrast to what we saw and heard on other boats with their less obviously peaceful approach! All in all, I couldn’t recommend Eyüp Reis 1 more highly.

Well worth it and great value.

My wife and I had a great experience doing the Butterfly Valley boat trip. The crew were very accommodating and the lunch was well catered. The only disappointment was that we were unable to venture into the Valley and up to the waterfall as it was closed. Eric who coordinated our pick up from our hotel was very professional.

“Unforgettable Day on the Ölüdeniz Butterfly Valley Boat Trip – Stunning Scenery and Warm Hospitality!

My sister and I had a fantastic time on the Ölüdeniz Butterfly Valley boat trip. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and the whole experience was very relaxing and enjoyable. The crew was polite, friendly, and made us feel welcome throughout the journey. The buffet lunch exceeded our expectations—everything was fresh and tasty. Stopping at Butterfly Valley was a real highlight, and it was great to explore the area at our own pace. Overall, we had a wonderful day and would definitely recommend this trip to anyone visiting Ölüdeniz!

All day boat trip with lunch. Fantastic day.

Fantastic day trip on the boat, visited some amazing places and sites. Swam in the clear blue sea and it was warm, even in October! Very nice lunch of chicken or fish option, salad cous Cous, pickled veg and toasred bread rolls plus optional extra homemade chips only 100 lira. Reasonably priced drinks. Friendly staff. The price on viator included transfers from and back to the hotel. All for less than £40 per person. Highly recommended.

Amazing start to holiday

The weather was perfect, staff very helpful amazing service lunch on board was so filling, they even gave out extras that were not eaten. Honestly best experience ever. Best be prepared with many different shoes as there's climbing and rocks nearby where we swam. If I could I would give more stars
