From Turkler in an open-top bus
We pick you up from your hotel in Turkler – the exact time is confirmed after booking. A shuttle brings you to the cabrio bus, and from there the day continues in the open air: smoother than a jeep, with wide views and room for the famous water fights along the way.
The route heads inland past the arches of an ancient Roman aqueduct to a traditional Yörük village and fragrant orange and pomegranate orchards, where you learn how the region lives from its fruit. A short stop at a small zoo is possible, and a viewpoint high above the lake shows the Green Canyon and the Mediterranean in one frame. Lunch is served at a picnic-style restaurant on the shore of the emerald lake, followed by a boat ride with time to swim; on some days you can also try a canoe or a pedal boat. On the way back the tour stops at the Manavgat Waterfall, where the river tumbles over a wide rock step in a green park.
Tips if you stay in Turkler
- Sunscreen and a hat are a must on the open-top bus.
- Wear swimwear under your clothes and bring a towel for the lake.
- Keep your phone in a waterproof bag – water fights may happen.
- The small zoo and the waterfall have their own small entrance fees, and drinks are extra – bring some cash.
Pickup and drop-off at your hotel in Turkler are included, and you pay on the tour day. Love the river even more than the lake? See the Manavgat river boat trip from Turkler.
