If you want more than the usual holiday activities, Side Buggy Safari is one of the most popular adventure tours that combines adrenaline and discovery. Along the natural trails of the Taurus mountains you will drive over dirt roads, muddy sections, water crossings and uneven terrain for a genuine off-road experience. The route winding through pine forests offers a completely different way to discover the natural beauty of the region.
Never Driven a Buggy Before? No Problem
Side Buggy Tour is planned with first-time drivers in mind. Before the tour our experienced team explains how to handle the vehicle, the safety rules and the route in detail. After a short practice run, we set off with our guides as soon as you feel ready.
Buggies are very easy to operate, so you will get used to the vehicle within minutes and can focus entirely on the fun and the nature around you.
Adventure on Genuine Off-Road Trails
Along the specially prepared route you will drive through pine forests, follow dirt tracks and splash through muddy sections. The natural terrain makes every part of the tour different and exciting while you collect great memories with friends or family.
Throughout the safari the whole group travels in convoy with our guides, so the ride stays both safe and well organised.
Swim and Rest Stop at the Pond
Halfway through the safari we stop by a natural pond. You can swim in the cool water, take a short walk nearby or simply relax in the calm atmosphere and recharge for the next leg.
The clean air and peaceful surroundings of the Taurus mountains make this one of the nicest moments of the tour. Please note that meals are not included in our programme.
Professional Photo and Video Service
You don't need to carry a phone or camera during the ride. Our professional team captures the most exciting moments in high quality photos and videos.
At the end of the tour you can purchase these images if you wish, and remember this special day in Side with the same excitement years later.
