Jump into the cold river water of Köprülü Canyon, enjoy beautiful mountain views and have an action-filled day with friends, family or your partner.
One of the best things about rafting from Side is the short transfer time. Side is much closer to Köprülü Canyon than many other holiday resorts.
So instead of sitting in a bus for hours, you spend more time rafting, swimming and having fun.
Most visitors know Side for its beaches and hotels. But only a short drive away, everything changes.
Forests, mountains, rivers and fresh air replace the busy tourist areas. Köprülü Canyon is one of the most beautiful natural places in Türkiye and the perfect escape from the summer heat.
Never tried rafting before? No problem.
The tour is beginner-friendly and professional guides help you during the whole trip. Before starting, everyone gets safety equipment and a short explanation.
Just listen to the guide, paddle with your team and enjoy the ride.
Even during the hottest summer days, the river water stays cold because it comes from the Taurus Mountains.
Yes, you will get wet. Very wet. But that is exactly what makes the tour so fun and refreshing.
The day is not only about action.
Most rafting tours also include:
— swimming breaks
— photo stops
— relaxing by the river
— lunch in nature
So you get both adventure and chill time in one tour.
