This is not your average Safari Tour and is an excursion with a difference as you are toured around by a Cabriolet Bus that has been modified to provide you with the most comfortable and unique experience. Once you have stopped marvelling at your vehicle for the day, you will be set to take in some stunning sites of natural beauty and historical interest.
There is so much to see in the area and it seems that with every turn in the road you will happen upon a historic site or scenes of unequalled beauty. You will drive up to the stunning cascades at Manavgat and hear the rush of water as it falls and plunges into the river below.
You will be treated with a visit to Seleukeia and its stunning remnants of temples with an agora facade that has been well preserved. This city was inhabited by Lycians and was also known as Lyrbe.
As your vehicle is equipped to take you off the main road you will be able to feast your eyes on remnants and relics that only the avid explorers are able to access. You will be able to spot ancient bridges and Roman aqueducts as you make your way to a canyon that boasts emerald green waters and is known locally as Green Canyon.
This excursion is full of activities to make sure that everyone is happy. As well as visiting so many spectacular places you will also have a water fight to cool you down on the dusty off road circuit, the opportunity to try out the canoes on the green waters and even a visit to a mini zoo!
