Manavgat Bazaar Tour from Side
A riverside market day with a relaxing boat trip
Discover Manavgat Bazaar on a full-day excursion from Side that puts local shopping and Turkish market life at the heart of your holiday. Choose a Monday or Thursday departure to explore the corresponding weekly bazaar, with a Manavgat River cruise, a swimming break and lunch on board included in the experience.
Manavgat Monday Bazaar and Thursday Bazaar
Manavgat hosts distinct weekly markets. Monday departures visit the Monday Bazaar, while Thursday departures visit the Thursday Bazaar. These are different market days and locations, so the shopping experience follows the bazaar operating on your chosen date. Browse stalls selling clothes, textiles, bags, accessories, spices, Turkish sweets, souvenirs and everyday goods. The selection of stalls and products can change.
Time to Shop and Explore
The bazaar is the main attraction, not a brief stop on a boat trip. Enjoy approximately two to two and a half hours of free time to browse, compare items and experience the lively atmosphere. Buying anything is entirely optional. Take comfortable shoes and keep valuables secure, particularly when the market is crowded.
Scenic Manavgat River Cruise
The day also features a leisurely boat trip along the Manavgat River. Relax on deck and admire the green riverbanks as you travel towards the coast. Near the point where the river meets the Mediterranean Sea, the boat makes a stop for swimming and relaxation. Swimming is optional and depends on local conditions.
Lunch on Board and Optional Waterfall
Lunch is served on the boat and is included in your booking. Drinks, ice cream and personal purchases cost extra. If you would also like to see Manavgat Waterfall, an optional visit may be arranged for an additional transfer and entrance charge. The waterfall is not part of the standard included services.
Convenient Transfers from Side
Hotel pickup and return transfers are included from Side, Gündoğdu, Çolaklı, Evrenseki, Kumköy, Sorgun and Titreyengöl. An extra transfer charge may apply for Kızılağaç or Kızılot. Meet your driver outside the main hotel entrance at the confirmed time. For more ideas during your stay, browse our tours and activities in Side.
