Side: Jeep Safari Green Lake Tour with Land Defender
Discover local secrets in this green lake with Land Defender: off-road thrills, special swim spot, local lunch by the lake, and lake & mountain views — all starting from Side
Venture into the rugged depths of the forested valleys beyond Side for an adventurous Land Defender journey. Your day begins with a warm welcome from your hotel with Land Defenders and a friendly briefing from your local guide about the day's route and safety. Our first stop is Manavgat Waterfall, the most famous location in the region. Those who wish to see the waterfall can pay the entrance fee. Those who don't want to go inside can relax amidst the magnificent natural scenery. As you follow dirt roads towards the foothills of the Taurus Mountains, get ready for fun, laughter and a dip in the water – this is off-road exploration at its most enjoyable.
Your first stop is a hidden swimming spot beside Green Lake, a quiet water area known only to locals. Here, you can kick off your shoes, step into the cool, emerald-green water, and swim in peace.
Next, savour a homemade lakeside lunch prepared at a small village restaurant. Enjoy fresh Turkish dishes—chicken, Turkish kebab, fish, local salad, rice, and bread—all served with warm hospitality and views of the sparkling lake nearby.
After lunch, prepare to experience the tranquil atmosphere of Green Lake aboard the boat waiting by the lakeside. Here, the calm waters and lush vegetation of Green Lake offer another photo-worthy stop. Keep your camera ready and savour the fresh mist on your face.
This tour combines adrenaline-fuelled adventure, refreshing solitude, and authentic cultural flavours, ensuring you return to Side satisfied, sun-kissed, and brimming with stories to share.
Be prepared for safari conditions. You might get a little dusty.
