Fantastic experience we'll worth it for all ages - Wow absolutely amazing we absolutely loved it. What an adrenaline rush I'm in my 40s and partner 50 and both enjoyed the whole experience the jeep ride was an exceptional experience and really gets the blood pumping. We did get very very wet lol 😆 Everyone seemed so friendly and had a great time. . There are some up-charges which were a little expensive but not essential to enjoy the day so you can buy if your want

Fantastic!!! - A brilliant experience. Very friendly, always good-humoured team, which gave everything. We were thrilled! Unfortunately, we did not know that you will have a possibility to bathe - so be sure to take bathing suits with you!

Just book it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - What a day! Pick up in the jeeps was right on time. We travelled to a meet up point where all the jeeps met up. The off roading was brilliant. It really is off road and bumpy but so so much fun. We went past some amazing sights, the dam is just stunning. You do definitely get wet so wear quick drying clothes. My kids loved the waterfights (bring change for a water pistol) they supply bottles of hose water (for throwing not drinking) Onto lunch which was delicious and plentiful and you can either go on boat trip €10 or just chill and swim. My hubby gets seasick so we chose to stay and swim in the lake. It was so clear and warm. Then we stopped at Mangavnat Waterfall, lovely viewing point and some little shops to look at. The ice cream there is an absolute must! It's a full day 8.30am-4pm ish. Special shout to Jonny cash and his team, they were epic fun. We bought a USB for €40 euros at the end which has photos, drone & Gopro footage on for us to watch... well worth it. The guys literally hang off the jeeps to get the footage for you. Tip- bring face coverings with you as its mega dusty! All in all the best day of our holiday! Absolutely brilliant.

Just book it! - Absolutely brilliant day out! Heard it was good but didn't think it would be as good as it was. Had done a boat trip previously during the holiday too but this was so much better! The guides and drivers work super hard to make sure everyone's having a great time. Plenty of beauty to take in as driving about but the main vibe of the day is a party vive, loud music lots of water fighting, some foam. Boat stop also which is a bit more chilled and have a nice swim. Smiled all day long. Can't recommend it enough, super cheap too and food included. The photos the guides take and the Drone footage will cost you more but you don't have to buy it. But I did and there's lots of photos some jeeps seem to have a lot more photos taken of them than others but that'd be my only complaint. I took my 7 year old on and was bit wary it would be too rough but she loved it!

Nobody told us it'd be SO much fun!!! - Oh my gosh...where to start. We were chatting to a couple at our hotel on Wednesday afternoon and they said "Have you done the Jeep Safari?" we said we hadn't and they told us "Don't go home without doing it!" They wouldn't say anything more, other that it was an experience. Intriguing. We booked it for the next day. We were apprehensive, it seemed SO cheap (we paid £29 for two people) had we booked the wrong thing? We received our confirmation that we'd be picked up at 8.30am on the Thursday. Sure enough, we got picked up on the dot, The jeep was packed and we had to sit in the two front seats with the driver, everyone else was laughing at us "not going to be a comfortable day" we thought. A quick drive to the main office to meet up the rest of the group (there were 8 jeeps on our tour) an opportunity to buy a face covering (the driver suggested we'd need it) and then a safety talk from Johnny Cash?!? and then it all began. I'm not going to ruin it all for you, but what followed were eight amazing, high octane, wet, dirty, hilarious, breath taking hours. Eight hours of my life that I'll never forget, for a multitude of reasons. All I'll say is that the two worst seats at the very start of the day, turned out to be (arguably) the two best "seats" for the day. There is some up selling to include the pirate ship cruise and swim (unmissable!) and the option for picture and drone footage throughout filled memory stick (the pictures and video are incredible) but so what?! You're on holiday...do it! BOOK THIS TOUR!!! You will not regret it

Don’t miss out - Perfection, our lads are 7&11 and they loved it 😅 from pick up in the 4x4 (Bang on time) to drop off. Adrenaline- My smart watch kept asking me if I wanted to record the exercise !!! Even the grumpy old man in our truck came home with a smile on his face. Well done team, lead by ‘Jonny Cash’ Spider-Man and Batman (adrenaline junkie cameramen) and all the drivers x10 made this an experience we’ll never forget. You’ll get wet and dry a dozen times but never gets boring. Lunch was really nice. Didn’t go on 1hr boat ride (10€ each) after lunch as the boys wanted more ice cream and to spend the rest of the time jumping in and out of lake. Bought the edited usb video (40€) of excursion, thoroughly enjoyed the 35min pix and vids. If you want to take in the beauty of Green Canyon and surrounding area inc Manavgat water falls and Dam this is how you do it. You will not be wasting your money…

Hot, wet and loads of fun! - Honestly worth the money, just book it! Me and my partner went not expecting much (to be truly honest) but we had so much fun! Wet, hot, sunny and beautiful to boot with good music! YOU WILL GET WET AND TAKE A FACE COVER, THEY ARE NECESSARY! After booking and receiving confirmation, I received a text the day before our trip confirmation of our hotel and pick up time (8:30am). Pick up was smooth, and we picked a few others up before heading to meet with the rest of the jeeps and our beautiful guide, Johnny Cash 😉. We were able to purchase drinks and use the toilet before leaving. They don’t tell you before hand, but give you the chance to buy a buff/face cover for the road as it gets dusty but these are fairly priced. If you don’t want to buy one take your own! Make sure to take a water proof bag or one you don’t mind getting wet, they do you give you warning at the meeting point but it’s not advertised and my bag was absolutely soaked through! Not a problem though. The water fights were spectacular and a great way to cool off and the swim in the lake was stunning just wish it could’ve been longer. We chose not to swim at the first stop purely for our own reasons, but definitely glad we swam on the boat trip! The lunch was delicious! Manavgat waterfall was stunning and we were there just long enough, entrance to the waterfall is only €1 Would definitely go again, we enjoyed every minute!

Great adventure! - What an amazing adventure! Drivers and staff all extremely helpful and polite. Easy booking which was confirmed immediately. Nothing like an 18-30 party! All ages and abilities were on the trip and all made welcome. Honestly can’t recommend Side Tours enough. Thank you!!

Such a fun family excursion - From start to finish it was well organised, fun & we were kept fully informed what we were doing at all times. Face masks are a must which they provide at a very small price. Food was fine & filling. Drinks & ice creams are additional cost, but not expensive ( around 3 euros). Big shout out to The whole team they were great. Highly recommend this excursion.
