Real answers from local experts. No hidden fees, no surprises — just honest information to help you plan the perfect day.
How do I book a tour from Side?
Booking is simple and 100% risk-free. You can book directly through our website, send us a WhatsApp message at +90 552 325 87 72, or ask your hotel reception to contact us. We confirm your reservation within 15 minutes during business hours. No pre-payment required — you pay on the tour day.
Is hotel pickup really free?
Yes, 100% free. We pick you up from your hotel lobby in Side, Manavgat and all nearby resort villages (Evrenseki, Kumköy, Çolaklı, Titreyengöl, Sorgun, Kızılağaç, Belek and more). Our modern, air-conditioned minibuses come directly to your door. No extra charge, no meeting point hassle. Just relax and enjoy your holiday.
What is your cancellation policy?
We offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before the tour. If your plans change due to weather, illness or any other reason, simply let us know and we’ll reschedule or refund you — no questions asked. We believe in flexible, stress-free travel. Your satisfaction comes first.
Is lunch included in the tours?
Yes, most of our full-day tours include a delicious Turkish lunch at a local restaurant. The menu typically features fresh grilled meats, fish, salads, meze and unlimited soft drinks. Vegetarian and halal options are always available. Lunch is prepared fresh daily — no pre-packaged meals. Check each tour description for specific inclusions.
Are the tours insured and safe?
Absolutely. All our tours are fully insured with Koç Allianz, Turkey’s leading insurance provider. Our vehicles are licensed, regularly inspected and equipped with seatbelts, first-aid kits and fire extinguishers. All our guides are TÜRSAB-certified and trained in emergency procedures. Your safety is our top priority.
Do I need to pay in advance?
No, we don’t require any pre-payment. You pay on the tour day, either in cash (EUR, USD, GBP or Turkish Lira) or by credit card. This is our promise to you: if you’re not satisfied with the service, you don’t pay. We’ve been operating since 2009 and our reputation is built on trust.
What should I bring on a tour?
We recommend bringing: sunscreen (SPF 50+), a hat, sunglasses, comfortable walking shoes, swimwear and a towel (for boat tours and water activities), a light jacket (for canyon tours — it can be cool), and your camera. Don’t forget your passport or ID for certain attractions. We provide drinking water on all tours.
Are the tours suitable for children?
Most of our tours are family-friendly. Children under 6 usually travel free, and ages 6-12 receive a 50% discount. We provide child seats on request. However, some activities like rafting, quad safari and paragliding have minimum age requirements (usually 8-12 years). Check each tour description for specific age restrictions. Families love our Pirate Boat Tour and Green Canyon cruise!
What happens if the weather is bad?
We monitor weather conditions daily. If a tour must be cancelled due to severe weather (storm, extreme wind, etc.), we’ll reschedule you for the next available day or provide a full refund. Light rain doesn’t stop our tours — we have covered areas and indoor alternatives. Your comfort and safety always come first.
Can I customize a private tour?
Yes, we specialize in private tours. Whether you want a romantic sunset cruise, a family day trip to Pamukkale, or a custom itinerary combining multiple attractions, we’ll design the perfect experience for you. Private tours include your own vehicle, dedicated guide, flexible timing and personalized service. Contact us on WhatsApp for a custom quote.
Are there any hidden fees or shopping stops?
Never. We promise: no hidden fees, no mandatory shopping stops, no commission-based detours to carpet shops or jewelry stores. The price you see is the price you pay. We’re a local tour operator, not a commission-driven agency. Our reputation is built on honest, authentic experiences.
How long does the hotel pickup take?
Pickup times vary by location. For Side center, we arrive 15-30 minutes before the tour start time. For resort villages like Evrenseki, Kumköy or Belek, pickup may be 30-60 minutes earlier. We’ll confirm your exact pickup time when you book. Our drivers are punctual and will wait for you at the hotel lobby.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash (EUR, USD, GBP, Turkish Lira) and all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express). Payment is collected on the tour day. We also accept bank transfers for group bookings. No credit card fees, no currency conversion charges. Pay in whatever currency is most convenient for you.
Are your guides licensed and professional?
Yes, all our guides are TÜRSAB-licensed (Union of Chambers of Turkish Travel Agencies) and certified by the Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism. They speak fluent English (and often German, Russian or Dutch) and have deep knowledge of local history, culture and nature. Our guides are not just translators — they’re storytellers who bring Side’s 3,000-year history to life.
What if my hotel is not listed in your pickup areas?
No problem! We pick up from 300+ hotels, villas and holiday homes across Side, Manavgat, Belek and the Antalya region. If your accommodation isn’t listed, just send us your hotel name on WhatsApp and we’ll confirm pickup availability. We cover all major resort areas and can arrange special pickup for remote locations (small fee may apply for very distant areas).
Accessible & Pet-Friendly Side
We believe every traveler deserves a great holiday. Here’s what Side offers for guests with mobility needs and those traveling with their furry companions.
Accessible Side
Side is gradually improving accessibility. While the ancient city has uneven Roman stones, key areas are navigable with assistance. We help guests with mobility needs plan comfortable, enjoyable experiences.
- Side East Beach — flat, sandy, wheelchair-friendly access
- Side Museum — ramp access, ground floor exhibits
- Temple of Apollo — viewable from paved harbour path
- Adapted vehicles available on request for tours
- Hotel assistance — we coordinate with your hotel staff
Pet-Friendly Side
Turkey is famously kind to street animals — Side is no exception. While dedicated pet-friendly beaches are limited, many hotels, restaurants and outdoor spaces welcome your four-legged friend.
- Side West Beach — quieter, more pet-tolerant than East Beach
- Sorgun Forest — open pine forest, perfect for dog walks
- Pet-friendly hotels — we’ll match you with welcoming resorts
- Outdoor restaurants — most harbour cafés welcome dogs
- Local vets — Manavgat has 24/7 animal clinics
