First feared, now emotions for life - persuaded my wife on this excursion, at first afraid, but now emotions for life) stunning views, mountain ice water, refreshing descents down the mountain, sea spray battles with other boats: all we have passed, and it is very cool, I recommend!!!

Felt safe, well organised & fun! - Gurkzel, our guide helped to make the whole experience memorable. Booked this during the welcome meeting with our rep then started panicking that we’d made a foolish decision. I needn’t have worried. We were made to feel safe & secure from the outset. My teenagers thoroughly enjoyed the experience - difficult task to please all 3! Take water shoes if you have them or old trainers. Anyone with unsuitable footwear is strongly encouraged to buy from them €10$ Per pair. You also need a change of clothes, sunglasses & a tie to hold on the sunnies. Drinks are all extra, including water. We took water but all belongings are locked in buses for security & not accessible until everyone is getting back on the bus. Despite these extras I feel the whole experience is still reasonably good value. We did quad safari, ate lunch then rafting and I know we’d have paid much more in the UK for a day of activities. Lunch was a chicken skewer served with as much of salad, rice, bread & pickled cabbage as you wanted. My kids are fussy but all happily ate the skewer (more readily than the food in our highly rated hotel!). Well done Dallas Rafting - great day out for our whole family ages 14-50. There was a 5 year old in our raft - the guide was wonderful with her, & she loved every minute. The river & scenery are beyond beautiful. Definitely recommend this experience.

Amazing rafting experience in Side. - An amazing experience although the 4 hour timing was off by a few hours. We were picked up at 10am and were dropped back at our hotel at 6pm. But it was worth it. The rafting activity covered 14 kilometres down the mountain and the views were breath taking. We also stopped off at a natural spring and waterfall spot on the way to swim and enjoy the views. Our rep was great and very professional and the included lunch (chicken shish, salad and rice) was fresh and tasty. One thing to point out when booking this activity, you'll have to wait for the group you were picked up with to finish their activities before you can all head back, this will have some waiting around if you've only booked rafting. But the waiting is worth it. There is no other full day experience for this value.

A little Bit of Chaos - Rafting was a lot of fun. The Trip took us 8,5 h. And we were the Last ones to be Picked up and the First ones to be dropped of. We hat to wait 30 Minutes for the Bus becouse of Traffic. After contacting the Agency we got that info after 20 Minutes of waining. The First Meeting Stop is a lot of Chaos, If you don't catch the Attention of the Guides and you are not speaking russion or turkish, you are overlooked. They try to sell you foodwere and gloves. You don't need them. We booked just the Rafting Tour but got to also do a mud Tour with Quads and other dirtbikes. Also ziplining. As we did Not book this, the scedual was Mixed up and the Guides argued with the owner of the place. We had to wait a very long time to take our turn.

Could be easily far better experience - We signed up for a rafting experience only but though that was advertised as a 4-hour activity it became a 9-hour one. Generally the bus driver and the boat guides are a very nice group of people and thinking only of that experience that was great. Lots of fun and splashing. With a little bit of organisation and less aggressive attitude to sell kits and extra food and drink (one organiser on the base particularly) this could be a 5-star attraction. We had to wait long periods of time for that person to sell his goods - disgusting way to convince tourists to buy everything that you really don’t need for a nice day. Later while waiting for others to finish different activities at other spots you are left without drinks and food, only one site that was offered for ridiculously expensive price knowing that a bottle of water in Turkey is only 3-5 lira. I am not sure that the tour advertisers are aware of these problems but it would be ideal to look into these to help future travellers to enjoy that more and give better feedback.

It's ok - Note the following: at the beginning, they try to sell you gloves and water shoes in a fairly intrusive way. Don't do this because it's totally unnecessary. The guides also wear slippers. Our guide spoke no English. You have to pay for the food and drinks at the stop afterwards. We specifically chose rafting and not the rest. We ended up waiting more than 2 hours because others went buggy riding on our boat. There is also 4 hours but we were only 9 hours later back at the Hotel in Side. The trip itself was fun, the guide tried to make something of it.
