Rafting at Köprülü Canyon from Belek: Jeep Safari & Lunch

The experience

Köprülü Canyon is a river gorge cut through limestone in the Taurus range, and the day splits between two ways to see it. You start with a Jeep ride into the mountains: a 4x4 vehicle navigates the terrain while your guide points out the landscape and the canyon walls rising around you. That sets up the second half: you trade the Jeep for a raft and paddle the white water section of the river itself, moving through the same canyon from water level instead of above it.

The rafting section is the centerpiece. You'll be in a group on the water with your guide steering and the current doing most of the work, though you paddle through the sections where the river picks up speed. The canyon narrows overhead, and the rock walls close in as you move downstream. Lunch happens between the two activities, so you're fueled for both. Wear water shoes or rent them on-site. They matter for grip on wet rock and in the raft.

Hotel pickup and drop-off from Belek are included, which means you don't arrange transport separately or worry about the drive times. Your guide handles the logistics. The full day is about nine hours from pickup to return. A professional guide leads in English and manages both the Jeep route and the water, so you're not navigating either one yourself.

Top questions

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Child (4 to 11 years). Children under 4 can't be included in the booking.

What is Köprülü Canyon like when you're actually on the water?

Köprülü Canyon is a limestone gorge carved by the river, with steep rock walls rising on both sides as you raft through. The water moves at a moderate pace with sections of white water that require paddling, but it's not extreme: the activity suits travelers with moderate fitness rather than expert paddlers.

Do I need my own water shoes, or can I rent them there?

Water shoes are highly recommended for safety and comfort on the wet rocks and in the raft. If you don't have a pair, they're available to rent on-site, so you can arrange them when you arrive.

How does the Jeep safari part work? Is it a rough off-road drive?

The Jeep safari is a 4x4 ride through the Taurus Mountains that leads to the canyon. It's a scenic route through the terrain rather than an extreme off-road experience. Your guide navigates and explains the landscape as you go.

What's included in the price, and what do I need to bring?

Hotel pickup and drop-off, a professional guide, lunch, the Jeep ride and white water rafting are all included. Bring water shoes or rent them on-site, and bring water to stay hydrated: the day runs about nine hours in the sun and on the river.
