• 4Amazing boat trip, great lunch, fantastic value for money, shame about transfer.

  The boat trip and lunch were great, the scenery is beautiful. Had a chance to swim and fish. The boat trip was great, crew and guides very friendly. Helped people on and off when needed. Photos taken by photographer onboard and very reasonably priced. We have some lovely ones! Lunch was either fish or chicken, with as much salad, rice and pasta as you want. Steps up to restaurant were steep but manageable. Drinks at restaurant not included but very reasonably priced. Amazing views from the restaurant. Our only disappointment was the transfer, we were collected in a small cramped mini bus, the driving was erratic, high speed and very heavy braking. The driver was on his mobile phone for much of the journey. Never usually feel car sick but did during this drive!

• 3Stunning place but spoilt by journey

  The green canyon boat trip is absolutely stunning and the swim at the end was lovely. Unfortunately the journey was awful. We think what happened was that they had trouble with one of the vans the day before, so it seems that had drafted in a driver who could only speak Turkish and whose van was old and not very comfortable who had to pick up people from all over the place. We were still picking people up from hotels two and a half hours into the journey. No-one explained what was going on. It made it such a long journey 3 and a half hours there and back - 7 plus hours spent in a minibus was not fun. There was a young lady who sat next to the driver - I don't know if she was the guide but she did absolutely nothing except talking and laughing loudly and look at her phone. She didn't engage with us at all, even though she said she could speak English. We had no idea how long we had allocated for lunch. The lunch was actually very nice but seemed a bit rushed. We were desperate to get home after that but stopped by a big shop. We had 45 minutes in there which wasn't quite long enough as there were some bargains to be had. On the way home the driver seemed to get lost and was relying on his sat nav but still going all over the place . Suffice to say no-one tipped him at the end. Maybe this was a one-off experience and we were just unlucky.

• 2Smoke

  This boat trip is a joke , we were told we would be picked up by private transfer , but five minutes into the journey we had to go on a coach where we struggled to get a seat . We were herded onto a packed boat when someone announced we could smoke . We couldn't escape people smoking , so IV ended up with tonsillitis and a chest infection. The canyon itself is gorgeous. The lunch was a joke , felt like a scramble for fly infested food which was the most basic . Then everyone say on bench tables , I regretted the trip as soon as we joined the coach . Terrible!!!

• 5Green Canyon River Cruise

  I was nervous booking a tour, with my mobility problems, and even the night before I wanted to cancel, but I am so glad I didn’t, as this was the first time in Turkey. We were picked up on time at our hotel, and only had a few more pick ups before we were on the way. Our guide was lovely and very informative on the way to Green Cannon. There was a short walk from the bus down to the cruise boats, I took it slowly and safely. We were welcomed onto the boat and it wasn’t long before we were on the way, we saw some amazing views of green cannon. There were a couple of stops for anyone that wanted to swim or fish. The rep come over to where we were sitting and said that when everyone got off the boat to go for lunch we were to stay on the boat and they would bring lunch to us, as the restaurant was up a steep slop. So the lovely young man that was helping the captain went to collect the lunch, which was very tasty. Once more we were on our way, back to where we started and back to the bus that was waiting for us. The young man that brought our lunch helped me up the steps and made sure I was safe. All my concerns about going on a tour were not needed, we were looked after very well, from the tour guide, bus driver, and the captain and his helper. Thank you so much for a lovely day 😊.

• 4Nice day out

  Wonderful views and delicious lunch. Got a bit tiring at the end but this was due to the extreme heat.

• 5Peaceful and relaxing experience on a boat down the canyon.

  I Booked this last minute with a travel agent in antalya not to far from hotel. They picked us up from our hotel in coach with AC. Took us to the boat was a great peaceful and relaxing experience considering the boat was full of other people doing the tour. They stopped so you could swim in green canyon if you wanted and both my kids went for a little swim. Then they took us to a nice restaurant by the green canyon for lunch. The food was buffet style meat or fish with salad no drinks included. I suggest you empty out the mini bar at your all inclusive hotel and take drinks with you. Otherwise will have to buy drinks. They returned us back to hotel around 4pm and it was a lovely peaceful day. Totally worth a trip if you not done with before.
