A Day Packed with Action and Scenic Wonder
This combo tour is a carefully curated mix of incredible outdoor activities centered around the breathtaking Köprülü Canyon National Park. Whether you’re floating down the Koprucay River, flying over the canyon on a zipline, or racing through rugged terrains in a buggy or quad, each part offers something special.
Rafting is the cornerstone, lasting around 2.5 to 3 hours on a 12-kilometer course that guides you through exhilarating rapids amid towering canyon walls. The Kopruçay River’s crystal-clear waters and the panoramic views of the canyon make paddling a highlight. Reviewers mention that no previous experience is needed, thanks to professional guides providing detailed instructions and quality safety equipment. One guest noted, “Our guide was super friendly, and I felt safe paddling through those exciting rapids.”
The zipline experience adds an aerial perspective, allowing you to soar over the canyon and forests. It’s a perfect way to get that extra adrenaline rush while soaking in breathtaking views from above. Many reviewers highlight the thrill of flying high over ancient Roman bridges and natural landscapes, making it a memorable highlight of the day.
Off-road safaris in buggies and ATVs deliver the rugged fun. Guided by experts, you’ll navigate dusty trails, hills, and forested paths that reveal hidden corners of Antalya’s countryside. The 45-minute rides are suitable for beginners, with no driving license required, and allow you to take in the lush scenery at a lively pace. Several guests loved how the guides shared interesting insights about the area’s flora, fauna, and history, enriching the experience.
What to Expect at Each Step
Start with rafting, where you’ll paddle along the Köprülü River, marveling at the canyon’s dramatic cliffs and scenic spots perfect for photos. The guides are attentive, making sure everyone feels comfortable and safe. During the journey, you’ll get frequent stops at viewpoints, giving you chances to snap photos of the lush landscape and ancient ruins like Roman aqueducts.
Next, the zipline kicks in, usually after a break for lunch. Expect a professional setup with safety harnesses, and some reviewers mention it’s “the most adrenaline-pumping part” of the tour. The aerial views of the canyon from high above are worth every second of the run.
Finally, the buggy or quad tour offers hands-on driving through rugged terrains, dust clouds, and lush greenery. You don’t need experience, but it’s a high-energy ride that will leave you smiling. Many travelers mention how the guides keep the mood fun while providing helpful tips.
Authentic and Practical Aspects
The price—$17 per person—reflects excellent value considering the variety and quality of activities. Included are professional guides, safety equipment, and transfers (if opted for). Post-rafting, you can relax with a tasty gozleme (Turkish flatbread) and tea at the riverside restaurant, making for a well-rounded, satisfying day.
Duration ranges from 4 to 7 hours, depending on activity sequence and group size, meaning you can tailor the experience to your schedule. Availability varies, so checking in advance is recommended.
