I booked this trip through before my trip to Turkey and I’m so glad I did! I was picked up from my hotel at 9am and taken to a bus that had a really fun vibe with music playing on an open-sided bus. When we got to the boat, you pick your lunch choice I went for chicken couscous salad and crusty bread, which was really tasty. The boat has three decks: two shaded ones and a top deck perfect for sunbathing. Drinks and snacks at the bar were reasonably priced, similar to a restaurant. The first stop was at a beautiful beach with a river on one side and the Mediterranean on the other. You can swim there and they even had pancakes and fresh orange juice to buy. After that, we headed to Dolphin Island for another swim break you can jump straight off the boat, which was a blast. We didn’t spot any dolphins, but they’re not guaranteed. On the way back, there was a foam party on the second deck, which was super fun! The staff were great, always checking in and offering ice cream. There was also a parrot for photos I got mine printed on a plate for €10, which I think was really good value and a cool souvenir. The music onboard really added to the atmosphere. When they played the Titanic theme, it made me smile! On the way back, there was a stop where you could try jet skis if you wanted. Overall, a fantastic day out, well organized, good value, and I was back at my hotel by 5pm. Definitely recommend it!

We had a fantastic trip and would definitely recommend it. The balance between boat time and swimming stops was just right. We were picked up promptly outside our hotel and dropped back without any issues. The staff were really friendly, polite, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The food was simple but tasty, with a choice of chicken or fish that we both enjoyed. Drinks on board were reasonably priced, and there was also the option to go all inclusive when booking. The foam party towards the end was a blast great fun for everyone! Honestly, it’s hard to find anything to fault on this trip. Overall, a great day out and excellent value for money.

We booked this trip directly on and found it cheaper than local sellers, which was a nice bonus. Our hotel pickup was right on time, and we were taken to the boat where we waited a short while for other groups to arrive before setting sail. I was a bit worried about feeling pressured to buy photos with the ship’s parrot, but thankfully that wasn’t the case. They asked only once, and when we said no, there was no pushy sales talk at all a big plus for us! The sail up the river was interesting, passing local shipping spots, 5-star hotels, and trout fisheries. The first stop was at the river mouth where it meets the sea. It was a fun spot with beach vendors selling drinks and crepes, and jet skis available to rent at a good price (10 minutes for 20 euros). Swimming in both the river and sea here was really enjoyable. We then sailed out to the sea toward Side and had a tasty lunch of chicken, rice, salad, and bread. Upon arrival in Side, there was another chance to jump off the boat and swim for around 40 minutes. On the way back, the highlight was definitely the foam party on the second deck it was a full on party with great music and lots of foam, which everyone loved, from kids to adults. Our 8 year old had a blast! The boat returned to the estuary for one last swim opportunity in either the warm sea or the cold river such a fun contrast! Then it was back to the starting point and a coach ride to our hotel. Overall, a fantastic day with great value for money and zero pressure to buy extras. Highly recommended!
