Köprülü Canyon Rafting: Zipline & Quad Safari Combo

Paddle cool mountain waters, race rapids, and lunch beneath towering cliffs.

A combo activity in Köprülü Canyon near Antalya that pairs rafting, ziplining and an off-road safari (quad or buggy) in a single 8-hour day. You raft 14 km downriver through rapids and calm stretches, zipline 300–400 meters at high speed, eat lunch on the riverbank, and finish with your choice of quad or buggy trails through forest and riverbeds. A live guide leads the rafting, and pickup from Antalya is included in at least one option.

The experience

The day starts at the rafting headquarters, where your guide fits you with a life jacket and walks through safety before you board. Rafts hold 4–6 or 8–12 people depending on the group size, and each boat has an experienced guide steering through the water. The river runs 14 km and takes 4–5 hours to complete, fed by streams from the Taurus Mountains: cold enough to feel like a real escape from Antalya's summer heat. You'll paddle through rapids that demand focus, then drift through gentler sections where the canyon walls tower overhead and you can actually breathe.

Midway through the rafting, you climb out and move to the zipline. The cable stretches 300–400 meters, and you'll hit speeds of 50–60 km/h as you cross above the canyon. After you land, lunch waits on the riverbank: a chance to dry off and refuel before the second half of the raft. The rapids pick up again on the way down, and friendly races between boats sometimes happen if the group is game for it.

Once you finish rafting, you choose: quad or buggy safari. Both tackle the same rugged terrain: forest paths, riverbeds, and rough trails that wind through the canyon floor. The off-road section is the final push of the day, and by the time you're done, you've operated three different pieces of equipment in three different environments. The whole thing runs about 8 hours from start to finish. Souvenir photos and a DVD of the day are available to buy if you want to take something home beyond the memory.

Top questions

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Child (5 to 10 years); Infant (under 5): free.

How hard is the rafting if I've never done it before?

The Köprülü Canyon rafting suits all physical fitness levels. You'll paddle through rapids that demand attention and timing, but your guide is in the boat steering and calling the strokes. You're not navigating alone. The gentler stretches between rapids give you time to recover and take in the canyon.

What's the difference between the quad and buggy safari at the end?

Both the quad and buggy safari follow the same trails through forest and riverbeds at the end of the day. A quad is a four-wheeled ATV you operate yourself. A buggy is a small off-road vehicle you ride in. The choice is yours at checkout, depending on whether you want to drive or be driven for that final section.

Is the 14 km rafting one continuous stretch, or are there breaks?

The 14 km journey takes 4–5 hours and includes both rapids and calmer paddling sections. You'll stop midway for the zipline experience and lunch on the riverbank before continuing downriver for the second half of the raft.

What happens if I'm not comfortable with the zipline?

The zipline is part of the combo package, but your guide can discuss any concerns when you arrive. The 300–400 meter cable reaches speeds of 50–60 km/h, and the team ensures safety procedures are followed throughout.

Does the price include food and drinks?

Lunch is included and served on the riverbank during the rafting day. Drinks are not included, so bring water or purchase them separately.

How do I get to Köprülü Canyon from Antalya?

Pickup from Antalya is included in at least one of the two purchase options. Confirm which option you're booking to confirm whether your hotel or meeting point is covered.
