Manavgat Quad Safari & Rafting Tour

6 Hours Tour
8 - 10 Capacity
Tasty Lunch Included

It’s a combination of water and land adventure in Manavgat. You will first drive on quad bikes on dusty roads and muddy paths. Then, you will play and unwind by rafting on the cool river.

On the quad safari, you’ll ride hard through the woods, splash through potholes, and get wet driving through puddles. The scooters are very easy to operate; in a couple of tries, you’ll have a handle on it in no time. Everyone will cry and laugh as you’ll be completely immersed in the excitement.

The rafting segment is even more wonderful and enjoyable. The instructors instruct you what to do prior to getting into the river. At times waves tend to rock you, but that’s precisely why this tour is so enjoyable.

Everything has been provided for you to be safe. You have helmets and life jackets, and your guide to look after you on the boat. Showering, toilets, and storage units are even provided on land.

Throughout the river, there are high cliffs, large trees, and sometimes wild animals. It’s exciting to see the crowd screaming and laughing as they’re about to get wet. The crowd taking photos and jumping into the water infuse energy into the tour.

Having two contrasting experiences within a day is quite exceptional. You will be racing through mud and paddling downstream in cold water. This tour is a perfect day out for nature enthusiasts and thrill-seekers.
