Hip-Notics Cable Ski

Reviewed By charlieh619 - Shrewsbury, United Kingdom

This is my 4th visit to Hipnotics. Even with the COVID situation I felt safe to travel there. Baris and his team have made sure all precautions are in place. Everything is outside in the glorious Turkish weather so social distancing is easy! Everyone respects the guidance in place. The awesome food/produce is sourced from safe areas and prepared/served by the staff wearing gloves and masks. The house keeping has been minimized to reduce contact but everything in the rooms is spotlessly clean. During the stay I felt safe at all times and as usual has the best week away in paradise! Thank you Baris ????

Visited here today with my stepmum. The Balinese girls were lovely and very skilled, and the manager really friendly. Whole place is spotless and you are well looked after- it was my first experience of a Hammam. We chose a package which included a sauna, foam scrub, and mixed massage with a couple of periods of relaxation on loungers in between and apple tea and a fruit platter while our face masks set at the end. The manager picked us up in his car from our apartment and delivered us back. They prefer cash payment to cards so bear that in mind. Not a budget option but we were offered 30% off our next treatments and it was well worth the money for the experience- we would certainly not hesitate to recommend.

Koprulu Kanyon Milli Parki

East of Anatlaya you'll find the clear and beautiful river Köprü. Shortly after Beskonak is the starting point of the canyon and a white water rafting tour. Two Roman bridges mark the beginning. The canyon is 14k meters long.

Reviewed By AnnBlacksea - Samsun, Turkey

This national park can be visited at any time of year. In the summer or Spring you can go canoeing and whitewater rafting. If you do not want to go on a tour then just drive to the park and you can easily find other independent people looking to split the cost and go rafting. The price will include all the equipment,bringing you back to the start and lunch. I can highly recommend doing this! If you are not so active there are amazing views, picnic spots and lovely walks a long the river. There are two Roman bridges which should not be missed. The scenery is particularly spectacular in autumn with all the different colors of the leaves.
