Sapadere Canyon and Dwarf Cave with Dim River Lunch





Description
The guests are picked from the hotel in the morning. Travelling through Alanya-Gazipasa-Mersin-Demirtas route one arrives to the Sapadere village which is full of natural vegetation and has the most beautiful flora and fauna in the region. It is one untouched spot and has many virgin locations. The Sapadere Canyon is 3km away from Sapadere village and is 360m long and 400m high. It is formed by wind, water and ice erosion. Wooden walkways are built up for the tourists to walk through the Canyon and have a glimpse of the beautiful rock formations. You can also see birds and animals of species you haven’t seen before. The wooden pathway is 300m and at its end is the beautiful waterfall which is a must visit on a tour to Sapadere Canyon. You can click pictures and also swim in this water. The water is very refreshing and cool as even in summer its temperature hardly reaches 12 degrees. You can hand pick some fresh fruits in this journey too.

Very good. Great activities with good instructors and instructions. Waterfight between the jeeps on our way to the different activities was also very fun!
Beautiful places but to see according to the period maybe, Personally in the middle of August I went alone to him of three as my daughter was sick. Output mainly oriented waterfalls in canyons in description. Enough of this activity and finally telling to be alone. Day in the end driving mainly a part in a banana plantation, a good part in the mountains, then to end up late reaching the restaurant, too many cars for not enough time in really nice places. More detailed Departure in a nice beautiful banana plantation seen (Be prepared because from the beginning of the water battles this set up between the different vehicles gun and bottle, quite funny and refreshing otherwise the day mainly in full August sun would have been very heavy to bear. First stop on the route mini party foam improvised 1 minutes story of, then access to optional charge, drink and products made on site. Possibility to bathe in a kind of large puddle 😰 so say the water of the canyon but when there is no water before, there after because dams were made on each side I did not bathe in view of there color of the water (stop about 30 minutes). Second stop at the cave, nice very refreshing, stop about 30 minutes. Third stop canyon of 1h, to climb on foot to the top and this swim for the brave (there I went because the water is transparent and beautiful but prepare because is cold of egg in full August) Very nice places but too short barely time to drink something on the terrace and had to finish my beer cusec, to leave - at the same time 14h15 and no restoration yet. Last trip more water play we trace through the mountains to the restaurant Dim which is actually far from the canyon arrived at 3:10 pm. Meals served provided very quickly, lol. On the other hand the most expensive local beer paid 7€ 😰 whereas in the canyon 5€ usual price. A very quick jump in the water is possible, before returning to the hotels.
This trip was so fun!! Me, my mom and my brother loved this. The guide was very helpful and the food was very good. The water fall was beautiful and also the cave. We loved the Dim Çayi. Th water was ice cold but refreshing. They had many things to do there like slides and ziplines. It was so fun throwing water at other cars. Very cool music in the car.
The trip did not contain the promised visit to Sapadere Canyon or the visit to the Dwarf Cave. Instead they took us to a place by a river where there were 2 small waterfalls and a cafe and to the Dim cave, which was interesting but we had already booked another trip to Dim cave with our travel agency. No need to see it twice. Another thing about the trip was that the trip was a group of 9 open jeeps, and there was water fight with water guns during the whole trip. The jeeps drove really fast on the narrow roads and we did not feel safe. this water fight was not annouced in the trip description.
This trip came with a lot of confusion as we were under the impression that a bus would arrive to pick us up. Instead it was a safari jeep, and so when asked if we were here for the Jeep safari we said no. This was our mistake as it lead to a good 10-15 minutes of confusion for not only us but the crew also. After this we were also presented with a switch of destination due to maintenance to 'Sapadere canyon' ( we were notified about this just shy of 12 hours before ) and so we were unable to visit the canyon, instead we visited another waterfall at a different location. The energy was amazing; Introducing 'Water fights' between the jeeps. We stopped at a gas station at the start and flagged it as our meeting point ( not to be confused with the details of the excursion, you will be transported back to your hotel ) with the other jeeps to catch up. You should expect the trip to go something along the lines of: Pick up, travel to 'meeting point', travel to the top of a nearby mountain, go on your way to the Sapadere Canyon ( in our case another area ), Travel to the small village where you will be offered home-grown fruits and some cranberry syrup, Travel to the Dim cave, Travel to the lunch location, and finally back to your hotel. Overall, our trip was thoroughly enjoyed. The crew were great, Food was lovely, and the others on board the trip seemed to enjoy it just as much if not more than us. Thank you to the crew and organisers again, and deepest apologies for the lateness and confusion.
Scam, nothing like what’s advertised. Illegal jeeps almost crashing constantly while spraying water on passengers. Drives wrong way, cars stuffed extremely tightly.
Trio never took place. Stood waiting on pavement for 50 minutes. Excuse we got was that are not enough people to allow trip everyday and part of canyon closed. Later found out canyon had been closed for ages due to landslides. Why are you taking bookings for an excursion that is not viable and if you can't run the trip don't you think it is courteous to call
Plenty of time to see the canyon, see the dwarf cave and have lunch. Because of the postseason it is cold to possibly go swimming but that should not spoil the fun. Energetic guide with good explanation.
It was magical! well worth going, nice pictures taken, the tour was also well arranged!spectucular in 1 word
Ok for a timewaster,, most of the trip was in the makeshift jeep having waterfights which was fun,, bug the actual waterfalls were not anything special,, the caves were quite cool,, we were tzkdn to a restaurant and had a nice chicken salad ,, had to buy drinks which were overpriced as usual around here. Tour guide was good and friendly and we were a little pressed go buy his photos for 20e,, not too bad. Ok for day waster.
