This Alanya Rafting Tour was an absolute blast for the whole family! 😄 We loved navigating through the refreshing water and the views of those majestic Taurus Mountains were amazing. The guides made us feel so safe even though we had never done rafting before. My youngest, who's 8, was super excited the whole time. Also, loved the BBQ lunch - seriously tasty! A day full of laughs and thrills. Can't recommend it enough!

A fantastic way to spend the day with family for sure! The rapids were really fun but not too intense, which was great for us having never done this before. The BBQ lunch was a nice bonus too.

This was such an awesome day out! The rapids were just right for me and my two teenage kids, and everything felt really safe thanks to the amazing guides. Plus, the Taurus Mountains are stunning! Bring a change of clothes because you WILL get wet!
