Four ways to move through Köprülü Canyon in a single day

A full-day combo activity in Köprülü Canyon near Side where you raft 14km of whitewater rapids, zipline over the emerald canyon, drive a buggy through off-road trails, and explore by Jeep—all with professional guides, safety equipment and lunch included. Groups stay under 20 people. Pickup from Side, Belek and Alanya hotels is arranged; your exact time arrives by WhatsApp the night before.

The Experience

The day starts with a Jeep safari into the Taurus Mountains, where your guide navigates the rugged terrain and hidden paths of the National Park in a 4x4 vehicle. You move through the canyon without stopping to plan the next leg—the sequence is built so that each activity flows into the next. After the Jeep, you take the wheel on a buggy, driving dusty and muddy trails on a specially designed off-road track where you control the pace through the terrain. Lunch comes midday overlooking the river, a local meal that breaks the rhythm before the water.

The zipline crosses the canyon itself: you're harnessed and clipped, then you glide over the emerald-green water with a bird's-eye view of the gorge below. It's a moment of stillness in an otherwise physical day. Then you move to the river. The Köprüçay River holds 14km of whitewater rapids where you paddle as part of a small crew, reading the current and timing your strokes through the sections your guide calls. The raft ends the day on the water, so the last memory is the one you made yourself.

Pickup is included from hotels across the Turkish Riviera—Alanya, Side and Belek all have their own windows (around 7am from Alanya and Kemer, later from Side). You'll get a WhatsApp message by 8pm the night before with your exact time; be ready at your hotel's main security gate. Professional guides speak English, French, German, Arabic and two additional languages. Life vests, helmets and all safety gear are provided. The group size maxes at 20 people, which means you're not waiting in a line for any of the four activities.
