Jeep safari in Belek is a great opportunity to get acquainted with the picturesque nature of the Taurus Mountains and the peculiarities of a real Turkish village. The trip is full-time and will provide a lot of vivid emotions and impressions, and stops for photos will also allow you to capture incredible landscapes for memory.
Jeep safari is a moderate extreme activity, allowing you to enjoy speed, thrills, Turkish nature and colors. During the tour, tourists have to go on mountain roads, through the valley, and through pine forests.
After the tour participants have been picked up from the hotels, the driver and passengers will have to familiarize themselves briefly with the safety programme and techniques. Children may participate in the safari, but driving a jeep is permitted only if a participant has a driving license.
When planning a jeep safari, you should take:
– money for current expenses;
– drinking water (drinks can also be bought during the tour);
– sunglasses;
– headgear;
– a sunscreen;
– a camera or smartphone.
For safari you need to wear comfortable and practical clothes. If you want to swim in the river, you should take a swimsuit/swimming trunks and a towel.
During the jeep safari there are several stops for taking photos. The first one is planned at the very beginning of the journey and opens a magnificent panorama of Alanya. Then tourists are waiting for a trip to the top of the mountain pass. The parking area provides excellent views of the Dim Chai River and the canyon, and allows you to enjoy clean mountain air.
The tour includes a visit to this vertical cave in the Taurus Mountains. It stretches 410 m and is the second longest one in Turkey. One section leads to a large hall of 200 m² and a small lake.
The cave was opened in 1986. It lies above the Dim Chai gorge and is surrounded by pine forests. Inside, it is quite cool, especially in contrast to the summer heat. Throughout the year, the cave has a temperature of 18-19°C.
Visiting the village allows you to immerse yourself in the traditional Turkish culture. There is a small mosque here. After listening to a short story, participants have free time to take memorable photographs.
After visiting the village and the mosque, tourists wait for lunch on the Dim Chai River. Here you can have a salad, a chicken kebab or a baked trout with rice.
After lunch the tour participants have some free time. At your request you can spend it swimming or walking along the coast and enjoying the local nature.
The source of Dim Chai lies in the Konya region, rising almost 1.8 km above sea level. The river stretches for 60 km and flows into the Mediterranean Sea. It has a dam with a reservoir and a power station that provides Alanya with fresh water and electricity. The city’s residents and tourists are resting below the dam, and there are plenty of restaurants and water entertainment places directly above the riverbed.
