Why settle for one adrenaline hit when you can have two? The rafting and buggy safari combo pairs whitewater on the Koprucay river with an off-road buggy blast, all on one free transfer from your Antalya hotel.
What is the rafting buggy combo in Antalya?
This is a genuine full-day adventure that stitches together two of the region's most popular activities. You spend part of the day rafting the classic run through Koprulu Canyon National Park, and the other part tearing along dusty forest tracks in a two-seat off-road buggy. It is one of our real combo day-tours, not two separate bookings you have to juggle yourself.
Koprulu Canyon sits near Beskonak, around 50 km and roughly one hour inland from the Side and Manavgat coast. A single free hotel pickup takes you inland in the morning, you knock out both activities, and you are back at your hotel by late afternoon or early evening.
How the day flows
Depending on the day's schedule and river conditions, you will usually raft in the morning and drive the buggy afterwards, or do it the other way round. Either order works brilliantly, and your guides will confirm the running order on the day.
- Rafting: The classic Koprucay run is about 14 km of grade II-III water. It is genuinely family-friendly, with a trained guide in every raft and helmet plus life jacket provided. The water is cold snowmelt, so expect a refreshing splash.
- Buggy safari: Once you are dry, you climb into a two-seat buggy and follow a marked off-road trail through pine forest and open track. Expect dust, bumps and plenty of laughs. Full safety briefing and kit are provided before you set off.
Whitewater in the morning, off-road after (or vice versa)
The beauty of this combo is contrast. In the morning the river is cool, green and flowing; a few hours later you are throwing up dust on dry forest trails. You get the calm-then-chaos rhythm of two completely different landscapes in a single day, without a second early start or a second transfer to organise.
Why the combo is the best value
Booking rafting and a buggy safari separately means two tours, two transfers and two half-days out of your holiday. The combo bundles them into one transfer and one day, which is why it works out cheaper than paying for each activity on its own.
A quick note on how pricing works so there are no surprises: rafting is charged per person, while the buggy is charged per vehicle. Because each buggy seats two, a couple or two friends share one buggy at one price, so the off-road half is especially good value for pairs. For the exact combo price, check the live booking page, where seasonal rates are always kept up to date.
Who is it for?
The rafting section is family-friendly and suits most first-timers, while the buggy adds a jolt of off-road excitement. If you are travelling with younger children, are pregnant, or have back, heart or mobility concerns, be honest about it and confirm suitability and any minimum-age rules with the operator before you book. Our team would always rather help you choose the right tour than see you on the wrong one.
What to bring
- Swimwear and a towel for the river, worn under quick-dry clothes.
- A change of clothes you do not mind getting dusty on the buggy leg.
- Secure footwear such as trainers or river shoes that can get wet.
- Sunscreen, sunglasses and a little cash for photos, snacks or souvenirs.
Waterproof your phone or leave it with a non-rafting friend, and remember the rafting season runs roughly from April to October when the river is flowing.
