Packages we do not sell yet
Some combinations that exist at the canyon are not listed here, because we do not have a confirmed price for them. We would rather show you nothing than a number we made up. If you want one of them, message us and we will get you a real quote.

You know everything that matters before you book
Safety, how the day runs, equipment, who can join and what waits at the base — each has its own page, so you never have to guess.
Safety on the Köprüçay A trained guide in every raft, a briefing and a practice run before the start. Rafting stays an activity on moving water — we tell you what that means. How the day runs Morning pickup, the drive into the national park, 12 km on the river, lunch on the bank. Why we promise no fixed clock time is explained there. Who can join — and who should not Non-swimmers yes, previous experience no. The health exclusions and the age limits are stated per tour, not buried in small print. What to bring Swimwear, a towel, dry clothes — and shoes that fasten to your foot and can get soaked. Flip-flops are not allowed on the river.
Köprülü Canyon National Park
Köprülü Canyon National Park
The rafting is not a track with water in it. It runs through a protected national park in the mountains behind the coast, and the drive in is part of what you are paying for.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which tour should I take?
If you want one run on the river, plain rafting from €18 is enough. If you want the whole day at the canyon, take a combination — zipline from €25, jeep from €28, quad from €30, buggy from €35, or a three-activity day from €38. The rafting stretch is the same on all of them.
What is the difference between the departure points?
The river is always the same — the Köprüçay in Köprülü Canyon. What differs is where you are collected and how long the drive is: from Side €18, from Alanya €20, from Antalya €23, from Belek €25. Book the departure for where you are actually staying.
When and how do I pay?
No. Nothing is charged on this site and we never ask for card details. You book, we confirm your pickup time, and you pay on the day of the tour — cash or card.
Is the hotel transfer in the price?
Yes, both ways, on every tour here. Pickup generally starts around 08:00–08:30; your exact time depends on your hotel and is confirmed personally after you book.
How late can I book?
Online, from tomorrow onwards. If you want to go today, message us on WhatsApp — if there is room in the vehicle it is often still possible.
Do you sell other excursions?
No. We sell rafting in Köprülü Canyon and the combinations that run the same day at the same base. Nothing else.
