Tour Options
Itinerary
A comfortable vehicle will pick you up from your hotel during the morning. The bus will drive you towards the boat’s departure point at the harbor.
During the boat trip, a swimming break will be made at the point where the Manavgat River meets the Mediterranean Sea. This location will amaze you due to its natural beauty. In addition, it will be a unique swimming opportunity since the cold river water meets the warm sea water. There is a golden sand beach where you can walk and enjoy the sun. The location hosts river turtles and big sea turtles often appear.
After lunch on board, guests who wish to explore the picturesque Manavgat Waterfall will be following their guide. Entrance to the Waterfall comes at an extra charge. This Waterfall is one of the most famous natural landscapes of Anatolia. The water flows in a 4-meter height and ends up in an emerald river which is surrounded by trees. Enjoy some breath taking views over the Waterfall and take some amazing pictures. Then, you will be transferred to Manavgat city center.
The bus will drive you back to the hotel.
If you are not participating in the Manavgat Waterfall visit, then you will have some free time to explore the charm of the Manavgat’s city center. The city is a great example of a typical Anatolian town. There, you can find small shops, restaurants and cafeterias. You can also visit the bazaar where local people sell their products. At the bazar, you can taste and purchase fruits, handcrafted products as well as clothes. Once the free time is over, you will meet your guides at the meeting point to continue your return trip. During afternoon a vehicle will drive you back to your hotel full of memories.

Definitely worth the day out , pick up and drop off was hassle free and on time and very helpful The trip itself was brilliant and the scenery is out of this world and something I’ve never seen before The fishing was not so good and some of the rods was not setup correctly and I didn’t see any fish but it’s not a fishing trip so not the end of the world The swimming was great and a lot colder than I expected! But one of those bucket list things to do so jump in ! The only downside from the whole trip was the restaurant for lunch , you have to walk up a really step hill to get there which is fine but we was refused drinks and asked to pay for them when it was advertised as all in for the day - we only wanted water or a soft drink for the kids but was refused and they wanted cash and we only had cards on us - if we was told before we went there we would have brought some cash - the guy serving up there aswell was really rude but we didn’t let it spoil the day and went back down to the boat and got some drinks after out lunch Overall though an amazing trip and well worth going

The boat tour was relaxing and well organized, with pleasant stops to swim and enjoy nature. Lunch was good and the crew very friendly. Perfect for those who want to spend a quiet day in Antalya. Recommended!

Was not allowed soft drinks on boat so they can sell us drinks on boat. Would have got an alcoholic drink but because it made me feel pressured to buy from them I didn’t get any. Entertainment was good, foam party etc Food was nice in my opinion but again have to buy a drink Went to a beach that was only half an hour and you have to pay for seats Kind of weird We paid 5 euros to water fall when it’s only 50tl which is about 90pence Market was ok. Drivers did a great job. I’m
