The tour was generally enjoyable. We were picked up from our hotel, but the shuttle was a bit late. After a short ride, we boarded the boat where the photos were taken; the prices were reasonable, especially compared to the hotel photographer. However, the snacks and drinks on board were quite expensive. I think if the prices were lower, more people would have taken them. The restrooms on board were clean, and the itinerary was as advertised. We didn't see any dolphins or turtles, but considering how busy the sea was, that's understandable; it's not something the tour company can control. All in all, we got exactly what we paid for.

Soft drinks and water were complimentary, but it was made clear several times that other essentials had to be purchased. Lunch exceeded expectations, with a surprisingly varied and delicious selection considering the location and cost. Three swim breaks were provided: two long, one short. While we didn't see any dolphins, we enjoyed a pleasant day away from the hotel pool or beach. The crew was very friendly from start to finish. It's a good idea to have some cash on hand in case you need to buy anything extra. Souvenir photos were also taken during the trip.

Contrary to some reviews warning about tourist traps, I found everything transparent - with some basic awareness, you can easily understand what's included in the price and what requires additional payment. While we weren't fortunate enough to spot any dolphins during our pirate ship adventure, the experience remained enjoyable. Speaking with fellow passengers confirmed we made the right choice booking through this platform, as others who paid higher prices elsewhere didn't even receive complimentary beverages.

We had an absolutely fantastic day at sea. The activity was very well planned, and the crew was warm and friendly, creating a wonderful atmosphere throughout the day. The views were stunning; the Manavgat River and its confluence were truly magnificent. We particularly enjoyed swimming at several stops in the clear, cool, and refreshing water. At the first stop, we had the option of relaxing on the beach, trying Turkish pancakes, or even jet skiing. The food served on board was delicious and had nothing to criticize. The only downside was that one of the crew members charged my husband for tea, even though soft drinks were supposed to be included. I mentioned this, and he later apologized and offered a refund, which we declined out of principle. Other than this minor issue, it was an extraordinary and unforgettable day.

We were picked up from our hotel on time, and the welcome was incredibly warm and cheerful. The boat trip was like a big celebration, with music, entertainment for children, and a foam party. Swimming in the sea surrounded by fish was truly amazing, and we even saw dolphins. The crew was very friendly and ensured everyone had a great time. Soft drinks like cola, orange juice, Sprite, and water were included in the price, while other beverages were available for purchase. Lunch was excellent. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend it, especially for families. Even non swimmers can enjoy the sea with the help of life jackets.

We had a stop at the Manavgat River where we tried jet skiing, and later in Alanya, we had the chance to swim in the open sea. The only downside was that we didn’t get to see any dolphins. Another small drawback was the food organizers mentioned it was cold and the selection was limited to salad, rice, chicken, and bread. Unfortunately, there were no kid-friendly options like fries. Aside from that, we would definitely consider going again.

The drinks and snacks were plentiful, and the lunch was quite tasty, though not the buffet you'd find at a luxury hotel, which is understandable.

Our first stop was the riverside, where we spent about an hour enjoying both the river and sea views.

One of the entertainment team entertained us with a hilarious belly dancing performance that had everyone laughing. Then we took a second swim break, and my 17-year-old daughter was brave enough to jump overboard. The Aladdin 07 crew kept a close eye on everyone, ensuring our safety.

The lunch was tasty, and alcoholic beverages were available at reasonable prices. The toilets were clean, and the boat was well-maintained overall.

The swimming break wasn’t even in a scenic spot; it was crowded with boats releasing fuel into the water. Drinks on board were also double the normal price. I wouldn’t suggest this trip — the larger boats offer better swim locations and more pleasant views.

The music was unbearably loud, almost painful, and the boat was packed with no comfortable seating. Some of the crew were quite rude and impatient, barely paying any attention to you.

I definitely wouldn’t recommend this trip. It ended up being a long, dull boat ride, and the swimming stops seemed more like opportunities to squeeze money out of tourists with perfume sales on the beach, fresh juice vendors, and even camels. Contrary to what was promised, the all inclusive drinks deal is misleading only still water, Coke, and Fanta are included; everything else comes at a steep extra cost. Ice cream is given out during the trip, but shortly after, someone comes around to collect payment with no clear pricing provided. Another frustrating tactic is the photographer who roams the boat with an assistant and a parrot, snapping pictures of everyone without asking and then handing out printed photos, frames, and plates at the end, expecting you to buy them. If you refuse, their attitude turns unpleasant. The boldest part is at the conclusion when they pass around a wooden box for tips, making you feel pressured to contribute.
