Side Adrenaline Combo Tour: Rafting ATV Zipline Jeep

Side Adrenaline Combo Tour: Rafting, ATV, Zipline and Jeep Safari

Four separate adventures packed into one day inside Köprülü Canyon National Park. This Side adventure combo tour leaves the coast in the morning and heads inland to a riverside activity base at the foot of the Taurus Mountains. The pace stays high from the first dusty track to the last mountain viewpoint, and instructors run a short briefing before every stage.

ATV and Buggy Safari on the Off-Road Track

The off-road section runs on a dedicated course of dusty trails, shallow water crossings and muddy corners. Take a single-seat ATV or a two-seat buggy, or ride along with an instructor if you would rather not drive yourself. Finishing this stage covered in dust and mud is part of the deal.

Whitewater Rafting on the Köprüçay

The Side rafting stage is the core of the day. The route covers roughly 14 kilometres of clear spring-fed water, alternating lively rapids with calm stretches under the canyon walls. Captains explain the paddle commands before you push off, and there are swimming and photo breaks along the way. No previous experience and no swimming certificate are needed.

Zipline Over Köprülü Canyon

The zipline sends you along a steel cable strung high above the river valley. It is the shortest activity of the day and the only one that gives you a bird's-eye angle on the canyon, which is exactly why nobody skips it. Harnesses are fitted and checked by the crew before every launch.

Jeep Safari in the Taurus Mountains

On the jeep safari the vehicles leave the river and climb forest and mountain tracks to high points looking down over Köprülü Canyon. It is the calmest of the four activities and your best chance of the day to shoot the landscape without a paddle or a handlebar in your hands.

Riverside Break and Lunch

Between the activities there is a break on the riverbank and a lunch stop at a restaurant a few metres from the water. The menu is a simple local spread of grilled chicken, rice, pasta, salad and bread, served in the shade. Drinks are ordered separately at the restaurant and paid for on the spot.

Who This Adventure Suits

The programme works for adventure first-timers as much as for thrill-seekers, since none of the four activities demands prior experience. It is a physically active day that runs from morning into late afternoon. It is not recommended for pregnant guests or anyone with back or heart conditions.

The price covers round-trip transfers from Side hotels, air-conditioned transport, all safety equipment, professional guides and instructors for every activity, a riverside lunch and full insurance. Remember that the listed time is when the activity starts and that your hotel pickup is earlier and confirmed once your reservation is made.
