Itinerary
Day 1
We will pickup the travelers from their hotel and head to Taurus Mountain to start the tour.
Hotel pick-up and transfer to Taurus Mountains
Driver picks you up from your hotel main entrance and transfers you to the riding base in the Taurus Mountains. Pick-up time will be confirmed after booking and varies by hotel area in Alanya.
Tips from local experts:
- Be ready at your hotel’s main entrance gate 10 minutes before the confirmed pick-up time; many Alanya hotels require meeting at the main gate rather than reception.
- Pick-up time is sent after reservation—check your messages (SMS/WhatsApp) for the exact pick-up window the evening before or the morning of the tour.
- Wear closed-toe shoes for the transfer and stable area; bring a light layer (mountain mornings can be cooler than the coast).
Day 1
Explore the Majestic Taurus Mountains on Horseback
2.5-hour guided horseback ride (briefing + ride)
At the riding location you will receive a safety briefing and be paired with an instructor. Enjoy around 2.5 hours on horseback along forest trails, past a small village, and with views toward the Mediterranean. Suitable for beginners and families with children aged 6+. Weight limit 95 kg applies.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear long trousers and closed-toe shoes (sneakers or riding boots); helmets are provided and must be worn during the ride.
- Maximum rider weight is 95 kg and children must be at least 6 years old—bring ID for children if available and inform staff of any mobility or health concerns ahead of time.
- Bring a small bottle of water, sunscreen, and sunglasses; cameras are fine but avoid using selfie-sticks or sudden movements while mounted.

After the horseback riding tour in the Taurus Mountains we will drive back the travelers to their hotel.
Return transfer and hotel drop-off
After the ride you will be returned to your hotel in Alanya. Drop-off will be at the hotel’s main entrance unless another location is agreed with the driver.
Tips from local experts:
- The driver will drop you at the main entrance gate of your hotel—if you need a different drop-off point, tell the driver or the guide before departure.
- Allow a few minutes on arrival for everyone to stretch and return helmets/gear before leaving the riding base.
- If you’d like lunch recommendations for families in Alanya, ask the driver or guide as they can recommend nearby family‑friendly restaurants.
