The experience

The day starts with hotel pickup between 8:30 and 9:30 AM in a convertible bus that drives through the Sorgun forest to reach Manavgat River port. Once aboard the deluxe yacht, you'll find three full decks: a bar and dance floor on the second level, a sun terrace on the third, and facilities including showers and change rooms throughout. The boat carries everything you need for eight hours on the water without leaving to pay for anything extra.

After departure, the guide briefs you in your choice of English, German, Russian or Turkish on the day's schedule. The boat passes the boat-building yards at Manavgat, a trout farm, and the local soccer stadium before reaching the river mouth where Manavgat flows into the sea. You'll see the Taurus Mountains across the water and have time to photograph the turtles that live along the riverbank. The first swim break happens at an island where you can jump straight into the sea or explore the antique ruins on shore. A second swim stop follows on the return journey at the peninsula, giving you another chance to cool off.

The foam party and live animation start on the second floor as you head back to port. This part runs from early afternoon into evening, with the crew keeping energy high for all ages. Lunch (fish or chicken with rice and salad) comes with unlimited local soft drinks, tea, beer and wine throughout the day. You'll arrive back at the port after sunset, with the bus returning you to your hotel.
