Worth it !! - Great cruise for 2 hrs. Good views of the Mediterranean and Duden Falls. Worth a try for a short activity in Antalya. Highly Recommend.

Awesome! - The view from the boat was amazing! We enjoyed very much, the temperature on the boat was lovely, on the water in the wind, no bother from the heat. Drinks and food were present on the boat, very pleasant! There are beautiful pictures taken of us, which we could take for a small price, very nice! Definitely recommended!

Nice experience - must see when in Antalya! - It was a very nice trip and friendly people. Only the timing was a bit irritating, cause the starting of the boattrip was at 1pm, but wasn't written anywhere. Therefor we were a bit earlier and had to wait longer than, expected.

Great cruise along the coastline - Fun way to enjoy an afternoon in Antalya. We were short of time so wouldn’t have been able to see Duden Falls otherwise. This allows for a nice way to see the lower falls and the coast line of Antalya. It also was a nice way to cool off on a hot humid day. The music was good and it was nice the boat was not too crowded.

Relaxed boat trip - It took us a while to find the meeting point, but the organizers were very friendly and helpful. The tour was great and the Duden waterfall is well worth seeing. You should bring drinks with you, however, as they are very overpriced on board.

Voyage of uncomfortable boredom - Poor organisation and communication - wrong pick up spot, members of the team not clear on our tour itinererary. They also do not accept online tickets which makes things more confusing. We arrived before 12:30, were told the boat leaves at 13:00, and this then set off at 13:20. The actual trip was boring. Seats were very uncomfortable. I had to sit on a towel as wooden benches had splinters. The guys were offering drinks without mentioning the price and then chasing people down in the end for money. There was a picture run. We were informed it was free of cost but then the pictures were sold in the end with a frame. The only redeeming part of the trip was the waterfall and view of cliffs. The boat does not get close enough to the waterfall and there are no swimming stops. A young man put his phone on speaker for music, but he kept getting messages, disrupting the music. Finally, there was no actual tour or guide. You sit on uncomfortable wooden planks for 2 hours, looking at the same horizon and cliffs, eventually seeing a waterfall. The cherry on top was the captain hitting a smaller boat when steering out. Would not recommend, save your money.
