Overview

Escape the bustling city and immerse yourself in the serene landscapes of Antalya's Green Canyon. The tour begins with a comfortable hotel pickup, setting a relaxing tone for the day. A scenic drive brings you to the Oymapınar Dam, one of Turkey's engineering marvels, where you’ll have time to take photos of the panoramic views.

From there, board a modern and comfortable boat, perfectly equipped for your journey through the stunning Green Canyon. The boat ride takes you through the Grand Canyon and the Little Canyon, two picturesque waterways surrounded by lush green forests and majestic cliffs. The calm, emerald waters create a peaceful ambiance, making it the perfect escape into nature.

During the journey, you’ll have opportunities to swim in the crystal-clear lake. The refreshing water is ideal for a dip, whether you’re looking to cool off or simply connect with nature. For those who prefer to stay dry, there’s ample space on the boat to relax and enjoy the view.

A delightful lunch is served at a lakeside restaurant, featuring local dishes that highlight the region’s flavors. Afterward, the cruise continues, giving you more time to soak in the scenery before heading back to the dock and enjoying a smooth return transfer to your hotel.

Unfortunately, the tour was a big disappointment. The transfer was much too late, and what was supposed to be an 8-hour trip ended up lasting almost 12 hours. The boats were overcrowded, and Russian was the main language spoken. The "lunch" was extremely disappointing—just one small serving from the buffet, with only a tiny piece of meat for everyone. Overall, it felt like a rip-off and I wouldn't recommend it. On a positive note, the water and landscape were absolutely beautiful.

The excursion company we used didn’t meet expectations. The minibus had poor air conditioning, and the boat trip was overcrowded and not very exciting. The bar wasn’t well stocked, and there was no proper fridge to keep drinks cool. We only had about 20 minutes for swimming, and there was no wildlife to be seen in the canyon. The so-called restaurant meal was okay, with just one free drink included. We were then taken to a shopping outlet, clearly connected to the excursion company, where prices were high and the toilets were disgusting. Overall, it wasn’t worth the money.

The boat trip was amazing—we absolutely loved it and will definitely do it again. However, we had a lot of stress on the way back when we lost our way to the bus pickup location, and our bus driver had already left. We were really panicking, but thanks to our tour operator, Mete, we managed to find our way and the driver came back to pick us up. Boat experience: 5/5, communication and guidance from the tour operator: 5/5, organization of bus commute: 1/5.

It sounds like your experience was incredibly frustrating, and I’m sorry to hear about all the issues you faced with the tour. From the early start time to the miscommunication, overcrowding, and uncomfortable conditions, it seems like the whole day was poorly organized. I can understand how disappointing it must have been to expect a pleasant, well-organized tour, only to deal with long, unnecessary delays, disorganization, and subpar activities. It's good to know that your next tour turned out much better! Hopefully, future excursions can live up to your expectations without these kinds of problems.

The sights were incredible, and the food was definitely one of the better meals I've had on a tour. Drinks were provided throughout, which was a nice touch. My only complaint was that people smoked the entire boat ride, and there was music playing the whole time. It would’ve been nice to have a moment to just enjoy the natural sounds, except during the swimming breaks. The swimming spots might not be suitable for non-swimmers, but they do offer life vests for safety.

On the morning of the tour, we were picked up from our hotel right on time as promised. On the way to the boat, the guide shared some interesting local history, which we really enjoyed. The ride through the canyon was absolutely stunning, and we even had a short stop for swimming and fishing. We were able to order our lunch on the way, with options like grilled fish, chicken, or meatballs, and there was a salad bar with vegetarian choices too. Soft drinks, as well as coffee and tea, were provided for free on the boat and at the restaurant. Overall, it was a fantastic day trip, and I highly recommend it.
