“Good for kids as was a very slow tour and very overbooked. Told to keep a 3m distance which was hard to do as we had to go so slow. Many buggies and quads broke down during the journey. We got told we were not allowed our phone due to safety and them getting wet but could take money to buy snacks on our break as money obviously doesn’t get wet like a phone does???? Whole experience felt like a school trip as we was not allowed mobiles as they were FORBIDDEN. On out break one lady got her phone out to take a picture of the pretty bridge at…”

The off roofing was great fun with water fights at every turn and some stunning scenery! Lunch was an all you can eat buffet of pasta, rice, chicken and if you wanted (vegetables) it was actually quite tasty!

Ride an ATV through Taurus Mountain pine forests, muddy streams, and valleys on a 2-hour adventure from Side for $34.
“Uppskattad tur och verkligen prisvärt! Rekommenderar att man tar med en bandana och solglasögon, ta på dig nåt bekvämt som du inte är rädd att smutsa ner eftersom man blir VÄLDIGT lerig. Det finns värdeskåp där man kan låsa in sina saker gratis. Bandana går att köpa för 5 euro. Mat och dryck extremt dyrt, ta med dricka och snacks om du inte vill betala 4 euro för en läsk. Vi hade en 20 min badpaus vid en flod efter ungefär halva färden.”

Ride a buggy through Antalya’s dusty forest tracks and puddles with hotel pickup, helmets, guides, and a 1.5-hour off-road route.
“Reading previous reviews everyone said you needed a bandana or scarf as it’s very dusty. Rest assured, if you don’t have one they can supply everything you need, at a cost obviously, but if on a buggy I’d recommend a change of clothes as our bums got soaked and don’t wear expensive shoes either, you will get dirty, but that’s the whole idea. We were picked up from our hotel and our driver was waiting for us just before our agreed time. On arrival at the centre we were all given a safety brief and issued with helmets. Secure lockers for valuables are available free of charge. Once our vehicles…”
