Staying in Manavgat Town: Boat Tours From Inland

Unlike every other area on our list, Manavgat town is not on the beach strip. It lies inland on the river, which changes how you book and gives you a different reason for going out to sea.

Short answer

Type your hotel's name in the booking form and we confirm the pickup with you afterwards; the form has no pre-set list of town hotels. The transfer is included in the fare as usual. Note that the Manavgat and bazaar day ends at the market in your own town, so a sea-focused tour may give you more that is new.

How booking differs here

Elsewhere in the belt, the form may offer you a list of hotels. Manavgat town has none. So write the name of the place you are staying in full, add the street if it is a small hotel or an apartment, and leave a number we can reach you on. We check the details and confirm collection. Please do not choose a beach-strip area just to get through the form, since that sends your driver to the wrong place.

You already live next to the bazaar

If your hotel is in Manavgat, the market that ends the bazaar tour is likely within your reach on any Monday or Thursday without a boat. The tour may still be fun for its river stretch, its swim and its foam party, but you are paying partly for two hours you could have elsewhere.

In your place, we would look at the days that go out and stay out: the Island tour, which reaches Kızılot and Boğaz; Dolphin Island, with no promises about what swims past; or Caretta Bay.

The river is your connection to the sea

The Manavgat River runs through your stay, and on several tours it is also the boat's route to the sea. Where it meets the Mediterranean you can swim in cold fresh water or warm salt water just a few strokes apart. If you have only seen the river from a bridge, this is the other half of its story.

Worth knowing

  • The Manavgat Waterfall is nearby, and a separate trip to it is offered as an optional, additional cost on the bazaar day.
  • Fares do not change with your location; see the prices page.
  • If your accommodation is a private flat rather than a hotel, say so when you book.
