Detailed itinerary

You will be picked up from your hotel by your allocated jeep at around 10:00 am. All the jeeps will gather at a meeting spot just up the hill above Marmaris and will form a convoy of usually 5 – 15 jeeps. The day is not a race and the convoy will travel in an orderly fashion at appropriate speeds for the terrain. The speed limit on mountain tracks is 50 km/h (30 mph).

The convoy will climb up the mountains and take a stop at the top for a photograph opportunity of the stunning panoramic view of the Marmaris bay. The convoy will then continue on mountain tracks through villages and beautiful countryside. The jeeps will make a stop at a waterfall and a secluded beach for swim stops and there will be plenty of opportunities for more spectacular photographs of the surrounding views. Lunch is provided in a small traditional village cooked by local Turkish villagers.

After lunch the convoy continues inland and again goes off-road through the rugged mountains. There will be plenty of sights to see along the way pointed out by the guides and of course the famous water-fight to look forward to. Please note that water pistols are available to hire from the guides for an extra charge.

You will arrive back at your accommodation at approximately 17:00.
