Additional Information
Departure and return times are approximate and depend on your hotel location. The exact transfer time will be provided after booking;
Please wait for the excursion transfer outside the hotel — at the entrance or barrier. Please note that the bus may not be allowed to enter some hotel grounds. This is due to internal hotel rules and to avoid conflicts with local guides;
Transfer is included in the price from all Belek resort areas;
Please note:the guide may change the order of the stops, but the entire excursion program remains unchanged;
Important to Know Before Booking:the excursion has a moderate activity level and is suitable for guests who are comfortable with walking and active recreation. Children from age 4 may participate. Pregnant women and guests with limited mobility are advised to choose a more relaxed excursion program;
For children.Children without a separate ticket travel without their own seat on the bus (on an adult's lap). If you need a separate seat, book the child with a seat;
Choose comfortable closed footwear for the excursion: sneakers, closed-toe Crocs, or sports sandals with secure straps are suitable. Flip-flops and slides are not allowed — otherwise special footwear will need to be purchased on site;
Personal belongings are left in the transfer vehicle before the program begins, so we recommend bringing only the essentials;
If you plan to bring your phone, use a waterproof case with a neck strap. Without one, the device will need to be left with your belongings. It is better to purchase a case in advance, as they cost more on site;
If you plan to purchase photos and videos from the photographer, bring a USB drive. After returning to the hotel, make sure the correct files were saved;
Payment is made on the day of the excursion. US dollars, euros and Turkish lira are accepted. Card payment may also be available (confirm when booking).
