About This Activity

Looking for a full-day adventure that combines nature, culture, and fun? The Side Mix Tour offers an unforgettable experience, taking you through some of the most beautiful and iconic spots in the Side region – all in one action-packed day.

Your journey begins around 09:00 AM with pickup from your hotel by a fun, open-top safari bus. The first stop is a visit to a local mosque, where you'll get a glimpse into Turkish traditions and learn about Islamic culture. Next, you’ll head to the famous Manavgat Waterfall, a peaceful spot perfect for photos and a short break.

The adventure kicks up a notch as you head off-road through Side’s scenic countryside. Along the way, you’ll visit a charming village tea garden where you can relax or try freshly made Turkish pancakes (gözleme). The tour also includes photo stops at the historic Roman aqueducts and the impressive Oymapınar Dam.

By midday, you’ll arrive at beautiful Green Lake for a tasty lakeside lunch. Afterward, board a boat for a relaxing cruise across the emerald waters, complete with a refreshing swim break. Feel the sun, the breeze, and the peace of nature all around you.

On the return journey, there’s a quick stop at a mini zoo where you can meet some exotic animals. You’ll be back at your hotel around 4:00 PM – tired but thrilled from a day full of new experiences.

The Side Mix Tour is perfect for all ages, including kids. Expect surprises like friendly water fights between buses, making it even more fun!
