    Nice day trip out

    Nice day trip. You were only with the guide on the bus journey & him taking you to boat, lunch & waterfall i.e. he does not give you a guided walking tour of Antalya. This wasn't a problem for us as prefer to do our own thing. Lunch is a chicken kebab, which was very authentic, very filling and very nice! Downside was you had to buy your own drink with it. The drinks were really cheap ( we got 2 pepsi max & 2 waters for just over €3) so personally I'd prefer to pay a little more for the trip & get drink included as caused some confusion on when to pay for them.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your detailed feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the day trip and the authentic chicken kebab lunch. We appreciate your insight about the guide’s role and the drinks — your suggestions about including drinks to avoid confusion are very helpful. We’ll definitely take this into consideration to improve the experience for future guests. Thanks again for sharing, and we hope to see you on another trip soon!

    Didn’t get picked up for my trip

    I never got to try the experience due to poor communication with the tour operator and the driver so I was not picked up at my hotel . So disappointing after preparing for the trip. They did refund me for the experience but i am still very disappointed

    Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are truly sorry to hear that you were unable to join the Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimçay Tour due to communication issues regarding the pickup. We fully understand how disappointing this must have been, especially after preparing for the day and looking forward to the experience. While we are glad that the refund was processed promptly, we sincerely regret that this did not make up for the frustration and letdown you felt. This is certainly not the standard of service we aim to provide, and your feedback highlights the importance of clear and reliable coordination between our team, drivers, and guests. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused. Your comments have been shared internally so we can improve communication processes and help prevent similar situations in the future. We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope you might consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with a much better experience. Kind regards, Tourmania Team

    Great experience

    Great to see Alanya from Side. Wish we had more time in the centre but a beautiful city. Tour guide very informative. We all enjoyed the day! Food was great too. Everything was included expect for cave which was €5 each. Cash is needed for this.

    Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Side.

    How much does Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $63 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Side usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Side is not rushed.

    Is Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 46 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Side, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour?

    +

    Around 16 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Side can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Side and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Side within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Side?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Side experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Antalya Quad, Buggy, Rafting & Zipline Tour w/Lunch & Transfer, Green Canyon Jeep and Boat Tour with Lunch, Jeep Safari Adventure around Green Canyon with Boat Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Side?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Side?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour?

    +

    Included: Lunch at Dim river; Cable car tickets; Professional tour guide; Boat Trip; and Hotel pick-up and drop-off. Not included: Drinks on lunch time; and Entrance fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 891 listed pickup locations in and around Side. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour offered in?

    +

    It is offered in German and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour?

    +

    Is Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Alanya Cable Car, Boat Trip and Dimcay Tour if the weather is bad?

    +
