After being picked up from your hotel you will drive to the village Tasagil, where your 4x4 jeeps will be already waiting for you. You will have time to buy some refreshments and snacks to bring with you for your off-road journey as we wait for all the participants to arrive. Once everyone is ready to go, you'll start your adventure beginning with a convoy of jeeps.
You'll enjoy your drive as you pass through villages with stone houses and mosques. You'll enjoy your day off the beaten track where you'll experience the real beauty of the mountains, its flora and fauna of the Taurus Mountains. You'll ride through pine forests, cross the rivers and even see some medieval ruins. You'll then be able to enjoy a quick swim break by the river to cool off and wash off some of that dust from the drive.
By noon, you will reach the rafting base, where first you will have your lunch that consists of grilled chicken, pasta, rice, salads and seasonal fruits. After lunch, you'll get ready for your journey in Kopulu Canyon. Your instructor will give you the appropriate safety gear for you to wear including foams, life jackets, and helmets that are provided to you. We also recommend that you bring rubber water shoes for the water. Your instructor will give you a quick safety briefing and advise you on how to stay safe during the trip.
You'll enjoy rafting under the eye of your experienced instuctors in dinghies with the use of paddles. You'll cross the Koprulu river rapids in about 8 miles (13 km). It is recommended that you should not bring any items with you to the dingy as it will get wet.
Under the watchful eye of your experienced instructors, you will begin your rafting adventure in dinghies. With the use of paddles, you will cross the Koprulu river rapids in about 13km distance. Keep in mind, anything that you carry with you, will more than likely get wet, so we recommend that you do not bring anything that could be damaged by water.
After you finish rafting you will hop in your open roof jeeps again and head back to Tasagil where the bus will take you to your hotel.
Please note:
You'll have the option to buy printed pictures and videos from the day's adventures (at your own expense) to take back with you to share with your friends and family. The perfect souvenir for anyone who want to cherish these memories.
