Buggy Safari in Saklıkent (An Adventure Convoy on Dusty Trails)

The Story of the Activity

Would you like to discover the natural beauties of Saklıkent not just by walking, but by getting behind the wheel and feeling the wind on your face? The Buggy Safari offers you exactly this freedom and fun. With these easy-to-use and extremely safe off-road vehicles, usually for two people, you form a convoy led by guides and dive into the dusty trails, muddy puddles, and forest roads around Saklıkent. This is not a speed race; it's a delightful journey of discovery in nature, where you won't hesitate to get wet and muddy from time to time, laughing along the way with your friends or family. A different view awaits you at every turn, and a new thrill at every water crossing.

Tips

Don't be afraid to get dirty during this activity; in fact, embrace it! Wear dark-coloured, comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting stained. It's very useful to bring a bandana or buff to protect your face from the dust (they are also often sold or rented). Don't forget to look at the scenery around you during the drive, don't just focus on the road. This tour is a fantastic option, especially for young people and the young at heart who are looking for a different kind of adventure than the canyon walk.
