Super fun tour! Great for families, even if you're like us and never been rafting or quad biking before. Guides were friendly and safety was clearly a priority. Can't forget how beautiful the area was too - the mountain views were stunning! Make sure you book this one, its worth every minute.

Had an amazing time with my family on this tour. The combo of rafting and quad biking worked perfectly to give us plenty of variety in one day. Loved seeing my kids face their fears and come out smiling! Highly recommended if you're looking for something unique to do with the fam.

Really unforgettable day, packed with action and laughs. The rafting was just perfect – not too hard but still thrilling! The quad biking got everyone covered in mud but that's part of the fun, right? Such a delightful tour for adventurous families. Plus, the lunch by the river was really nice. Don't skip this if you're in Side!

Took the family on this tour and wow, we had such a great time! The views were gorgeous and both activities were super fun. Even our youngest, who's never been on a quad, found it easy and enjoyable. Must say, the boots provided were a lifesaver - the trails get REAL muddy! It's a must-do for anyone visiting Side.

What a blast! Perfect for a family looking for some real adventure together. The mix of rafting on the Köprüçay River and speeding through muddy trails on quads is the best way to bond with a splash and a spin! My kids couldn’t stop grinning the whole time. Highly recommend it for a fun family day out in nature!

A must-do! The mix of rafting and quad biking offered just the right amount of adventure to keep the whole family entertained. Super beginner-friendly too. The lunch by the river was a nice perk!

5 stars for sure! Both the rafting and quad biking were perfectly managed, and ideal for family fun. My kids got super dirty which, of course, they found hilarious.

Such a cool day out with the fam! Little bit of everything - water, quads, and mud. Everyone left tired but happy. Make sure to pack extra clothes for after the mud!

Thomas
Great combo of activities! The whole family enjoyed it. Rafting was thrilling, but totally manageable for my 10-year-old. The quad biking through the muddy trails was the ultimate cherry on top.

Absolutely loved this adventure tour! The rafting was super fun, even for us beginners. The kids had a blast riding the quads through the mud too! We all laughed so much and the mountain views were beautiful. Highly recommend for families seeking a bit of excitement!
