Antalya Combo Adventure: Jeep Safari, Rafting & Zipline in the Taurus Mountains
Ride a highland jeep, raft two hours of lively rapids, and cross a canyon on a zipline — all in one day from Antalya. This combo packs varied outdoor thrills with local culture, forest tracks, and river scenery into an accessible eight-hour excursion.
The Experience
Before You Go
Expect to get wet
Rafting runs last about two hours and will soak you — bring a quick-dry change of clothes and a towel.
Secure loose items
Use a small dry bag or leave electronics on the hotel shuttle; ziplines and rafts can jostle or dunk personal gear.
Footwear matters
Sturdy water shoes with good grip protect feet during raft entry and while boarding the jeep on uneven surfaces.
Hydrate and protect from sun
Highland sun can be strong even when cool; carry water, sunscreen, and a brimmed hat for transfers and lunch breaks.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Riverside tea gardens near the rafting put-in where locals pause for çay
- •Short forest tracks off the main jeep route that open onto panoramic village viewpoints
Wildlife
- •Wild goats on the higher ridges
- •Raptors (e.g., eagles) hunting thermal winds above the canyon
Conservation Note
Stay on designated paths, avoid leaving litter by riverside picnic sites, and follow guide instructions to minimize impact on fragile riparian habitats.
The Taurus Mountains have long stood as a natural barrier between coast and interior; nearby villages preserve Ottoman-era rural life and the region sits close to ancient Lycian routes used for trade and seasonal migration.
