Such a fantastic day out with the family! We had an absolute blast on the Green Canyon Boat Trip. The kids loved jumping into the crystal-clear waters and trying out the fishing rods. The lunch was delicious too, a real hit with everyone. Highly recommend it for a fun family outing that combines relaxation and adventure. Plus, unlimited ice-cold drinks were a bonus! A must-do if you're around Manavgat!

Went on the Ilıca Green Canyon Boat Trip with the family, and wow, what an experience! The emerald waters of Oymapınar Dam Lake were breathtaking, and the kids couldn't get enough of the swimming breaks! The boat crew was friendly and made sure we were comfy the entire time. My tip: bring sunscreen and maybe a little extra towel just in case. The lakeside lunch was yum too. Perfect day out in nature for the family! 🌊🍉

Solid family adventure on the Green Canyon boat trip. I really liked the peaceful vibe and my wife couldn't stop raving about the beautiful views. Our young one enjoyed fishing, though I think we scared away more fish than we caught, haha! Worth every penny.

Great tour! It was relaxing and the kids had a blast. I loved the calmness of the place and my daughter caught her first fish, thanks to the fishing rods available on the boat. I'd say it's a great choice for some family bonding.
