The Experience
Before You Go
Confirm pickup window
Pickup times vary by hotel zone—confirm your exact pickup window after booking to avoid long waits; transfers can be ~2 hours each way.
Secure electronics
Bring a small dry bag or waterproof phone case—pockets on buggies and raft decks can’t guarantee dry valuables.
Footwear matters
Wear closed‑toe shoes with good grip that can get wet; reef shoes or river sandals with straps work well for both rafting and buggy dismounts.
Hydration & sun protection
Bring a refillable water bottle and reef‑safe sunscreen; shaded breaks exist but midday sun can be intense in summer.

Conservation Note
Operators encourage minimal‑impact practices—avoid littering and keep to group briefings to reduce disturbance; river ecosystems benefit from limited single‑use plastics.
Köprülü Canyon sits on routes used since Roman times; stone bridges and ruins near the river mark historical crossings and trade corridors.
