Full-Day Manavgat Waterfall and Canyon Tour with Pick Up

Pleasant trip to Manavgat a close by dam, with stops to see aqueduct. Additional entry fees to waterfall and ZOO. The boat trip on the dam was a highlight for me, beautiful views. There was a language barrier, which I hoped the guide will help with. I was very disappointed about the guide recommending the worst hamam to us and charging more than double in comparison to any other in the area. This certainly changed my view of the purpose of the excursion as well.

Little nice tour, but the program has a few mandatory/optional undocumented upsells, like a stop at an animal sanctuary that is not listed on the program, and the entrance to the "waterfalls" which are little more than a 2m drop in a river. there is a boat tour but it's NOT in the green canyon, but on a green lake nearby, with an option to dive in the water. It's "ok", but I'd only consider it if you have already done the other stuff

What a fun day with lots of interesting places visited with a good driver & knowledgeable guide. Didn’t expect a lot for the price paid but far exceeded our expectations & would definitely recommend👍

We picked this tour partly to see Seleukia ancient ruins but we weren't taken there and when I asked guide why, they said they have been closed all year as they are excavating new finds. This was never mentioned at any time and is still in the itinerary advert. We only found out because I asked. Instead we were told we would be going to a zoo Manavgat Animal Park. It has the worst conditions of any we've been to anywhere in the world. Most animals looked ill or uncared for and lion cubs looked drugged so people could have photos holding them. Cages were too small or not suitable as most had concrete floors and no natural enrichment. My 15 year old autistic son who has done zookeeper courses in numerous zoos and wants to work with animals said he couldn't stand it any longer and we had to leave after about 20 minutes. I know different countries have different standards and regulations but everyone we spoke to on the trip said how distressing it was seeing the state of all the animals and how upsetting it was for them and especially their children. If Seleukia ruins are closed all year like we were told, the advert needs updating as do all the others advertising they visit Seleukia. I would also suggest they do not support the animal cruelty at the zoo by not including this and choosing somewhere else to take customers instead. Overall we enjoyed the rest of the tour but would not go again whilst you still support a zoo that doesn't put their animals welfare first.

The organiser is Prestige group. The boat trip on the Green lake was nice, but I specificaly chose this trip as it clearly says (or it was saying in the time of bookiung) that the itinirary includes visit of Seleukia (Lybre) ruins, which we liked as we wanted to see more inland and mountains and this was a nice combination. However, the program was completely different, change was not communicated, and instead we were driven to a badly maintained zoo with exploited neglected lions, something called "The Lion Farm". Entrance was additional 5eur. We did not go, but from what we saw and experiences of other visitors, we got the picture. This trip with the Prestige group was cheap, but I advise to select a different Green Lake trip. Description of this trip is not accurate and you are kinbd of supporting unethical businesses with this one.
