Overview

If you want the only sounds you hear to be paddles splashing, roaring water and laughter, you are in the right place.

If you want the only sounds you hear to be paddles splashing, roaring water and laughter, you are in the right place. Köprülü Canyon National Park awaits you with its waters that flow down from the Taurus Mountains — staying ice-cold and crystal-clear even in the height of summer.

After arriving at our rafting base, our certified guides deliver a short but vital briefing on paddling commands and core safety rules. Once spread across 6–8-person boats, you set off with the river current alongside the expert guide assigned to each boat.

The route holds more than just fast rapids: peaceful turquoise pools perfect for swimming, restful breaks to soak in nature, and entirely optional rock-jumping spots are all part of the adventure. While you feel the water through every cell, professional photographers along the course will capture your most thrilling moments — so you do not have to worry about your camera for a second.

After hours of effort and adrenaline in the water, you leave your wet gear behind and move to our peaceful riverside area. Under the shade of the trees, a warm, delicious and satisfying home-style meal awaits, carefully prepared to recharge you. After this enjoyable meal, our air-conditioned and comfortable transfer vehicles take you back to your hotel in Side, returning you to evening hours rested, happy and brimming with great memories.

Highlights
