The first paddle strokes arrive under a canyon lip where limestone walls press close and the Köprüçay River dares you forward. Water flashes turquoise between boulders, spray cools your face, and the raft answers the current with quick, rhythmic surges — 14 km of guided white-water that usually takes about 2½ hours on the river, within a 4–5 hour door-to-door outing from Antalya.

Secure footwear
Wear closed water shoes with good soles — flip-flops come off and make rocky take-outs painful.
Hydrate and eat light
Drink water before the trip and eat a light breakfast — the river run is active and lunch comes after the rafting.
Sun protection
Apply reef-safe sunscreen and bring a hat for transfers; the canyon offers shade but vehicles and lunch areas are exposed.
Timing for pickup
Hotel pickups begin 30–60 minutes before the listed time; confirm your exact pickup point the day prior.

Grip rocky banks and stay safe during wet exits and swims.
