What to expect

Why not treat yourself with a relaxing boat trip which serves up the little luxuries that make being on holiday so special? Set sail from Side aboard a traditional gulet for this adults-only cruise for a day of sun, scenery and snoozing. What's more, there's an open bar stocked with local drinks as well as lunch and plenty of chances to cool off with a swim. Haluk, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Gulets were originally used for fishing and sponging around the Mediterranean. From the 1970s onwards, these wooden schooners became a popular way to ferry holidaymakers around the bays of the Aegean coast.'

Settle down to watch the coastline unfurl as you sail out of Side harbour – with the breeze in your hair, sparkling sea and a bar onboard, it's easy to unwind. We'll cruise along the Mediterranean coast and into the River Manavgat. Soak up every inch of Side's photogenic surroundings while your skipper sails and the crew look after you. With plenty of space and a guaranteed sunbed to top up your tan, you can relax on deck as we find the perfect place to drop anchor for a swim.

Between dips in the water and catching a few rays, why not enjoy a drink or two from the open bar – beer, wine, water and soft drinks are all included – or coffee and cookies served up by the crew? There's also a freshly prepared lunch with dessert, followed by more time for swimming, sunbathing or snoozing in the shade – on this gulet cruise, the choice is yours.

    Guide wasn't helpful, lady wanting to use toilet told her to wait till boat, staff on the boat good, food good. Taken to dirty river and dirty beach. Not enjoyable.!!! Due to poor weather wasn't able dock in harbour back to river, boat travelling much to fast, people falling over and a number of people being sick.

    Overall we enjoyed the experience - food was good, would have liked to have seen a bit more. The only negative aspect from us is that we both felt that it was very expensive for what it was .

    I was told that the trip would be a tour of side and then there would be the boat trip. This was not the case. There was no tour of which the rep who sold me the trip told me there would be. I specifically requested that I didn't want to do just a boat only trip. The actual boat trip was nowhere near worth the price of £100 that I paid for it. We were squashed in on the boat I was told it would only be 16 persons. The food wasn't enough to go round I feel that I should be recompensed

    I'm a Barbie girl music playing loudly as you're traveling through a beautiful gorge wasn't appropriate or enjoyable!! Visiting a clothing outlet described by the guide as a textile centre wasn't good. We only did this to see the gorge. Few people bought anything. Food queue for lunch was awful - felt like a cattle market. We stood in the sun queuing. Bus guide was very good and informative. Boat was not as crowded as expected - just a real shame about the music in an area of beauty.
