Family Rafting Trip at Köprülü Canyon from Alanya

We took a family rafting trip with ‘Mega rafting’ organised by Tourmania. Albeit we had a good time, at the end of the trip they promise to give a USB stick with all the photos and videos taken during the journey. They charged 25€ for it. It was shocking when I returned home and found the USB stick empty. Even after several pursuits I had no response. Please be careful and do not buy any of those extra gimmicks they offer. There are other rafting companies around as well please ensure you pick the right one.

Vi var 7 afsted. Fra 21-80 år. Turen er egnet til alle aldersklasser. Floden er ikke vild, selvom den kan se sådan. Busturen til og fra var ret lang, men det var ok alligevel. Chaufføren var sød til at hold små stop undervejs og vi havde madpakke med fra hotellet. Selve organiseringen med både og udstyr virkede ret forvirrende i betragtning af, at de formentlig ikke laver andet. Det var også ret træls, at vi skulle genes i lange rækker gennem nogle vandløb - især fordi eneste formål var at fotografen kunne tage billeder. Så der var en del ventetid før vi kom i gang. Da vi først var afsted, var det en rigtig sjov tur. Vi havde vores egen båd + bådfører. Der var nogle finde stop undervejs, hvor man bl.a. kunne svømme og prøve en svævebane (mod betaling). Da turen var slut, var der frokost. Igen med lidt lang ventetid. Bagefter kunne man købe video og foto fra turen, men de var helt ublu med priserne. De startede på 90 euro for hele pakken og endte på 30 som minimum. Vi afslog at købe noget, hvilket ikke faldt i bedste jord indtil. I konfronterede dem med, at vores nabobord havde købt pakken for 30 euro og det derfor var uacceptabelt, at de havde forsøgt sig med så høj en pris hos os. Så pas på med ikke at blive snydt. Alt i alt en rigtig fin og sjov tur, hvis man kan udholde busturen ig en del ventetid her og der.

Bought the rafting trip from a travel shop near our hotel paid €20 each to include lunch. I wasn't expecting too much white water tbh. Trip to the gorge was meat to be 1hr 20 but was 1hr 50 to include a stop at his mates bar. Given a safety briefing and set off up the mountain at break neck speed driven by what looked to be a 14 Yr old but probably wasnt. Tip you have to have beach shoes so take them with you. In the town about €7 at the site €10 also take a waterproof case for your camera or buy for €8 on site. Be ready as the best rapid is about 400m in set the camera person near the back and you must get the first rapid filmed there are about 3 big ones about 4 average one and lots of small,be prepared to get wet. All your possessions are left on a locked coach. ladies advised to wear shorts really but not essential. A good lunch is provided but the drinks are quite expensive with beer at €4 soft drinks €2 you travel about 14kms overall and my opinion is that it is not to be missed
