What people are saying about Side

We were really excited. Everything was right here, from the pick-up, which took place on time, to the off-road tour, lunch and the boat trip. We've never had so much fun on a tour. Next time I would like to use this seller again. Only to recommend. Thank you for the wonderful day.

Nothing to say, the activity was perfect and the guides were on top. If you want to go buggy or quad in Antalya, don't hesitate for a second to go to them. They even take pictures that you can buy at the end, which are of very good quality. Very good memories, I recommend!

Excellent Quad Safari experience ! Friendly and welcoming staff. We also had 30+ pictures for a very fair price. Only little disappointment was driving speed but as a group cruise, hard to handle it differently. Definitely recommend this activity !

Amazing!! So much fun a must do!! But take a towel and something to put your phone in because the water fights are sooo good but you get drenched !

All good, but need cash swim boat Все хорошо, но надо дополнительно доплачивать
