Our half day buggy safari tour from Marmaris is an action-packed off-road adventure on a course about 15 km north of town, where you steer your own buggy through shady woods, dry riverbeds and muddy tracks. With a safety briefing, a practice ride and instructors at your side, this daily excursion is exciting yet easy to enjoy, even if you have never driven off-road before.
Arriving in Marmaris on a cruise ship? The Half Day Buggy Safari Tour is one of the shore excursions we regularly arrange for cruise guests calling at the port of Marmaris. For cruise guests we can arrange pickup at the cruise terminal where the shared tour schedule allows; if your time in port is short, we recommend the private version of this tour, which is timed to your ship. Tell us how many hours your ship stays in port and we will confirm that the full programme fits comfortably. Send us your ship name and the date of your call in Marmaris and we will confirm availability.
The forested hills behind Marmaris are crossed by streams and rough tracks, creating natural terrain for off-road driving. The buggy course uses this landscape to full effect: one moment you are winding between pine trees, the next you are splashing through a riverbed or ploughing through thick mud. The vehicles are regularly maintained, and the instructors keep the group together so the fun stays safe from start to finish.
Before the drive begins, the team explains how the buggy works and what to expect on the route, then lets you try a short demo ride to get comfortable with the controls. Expect dust and mud: wear clothes you do not mind getting dirty and bring a change of clothes and a towel. Afterwards, showers are available on site, so you can clean up before heading back.
Hotel pick-up and return transfer in an air-conditioned vehicle, an English-speaking guide and all buggy equipment are included. Lunch, drinks and the optional DVD are paid separately. For a lively Marmaris day trip that mixes adrenaline with countryside scenery, this daily tour is a great choice for friends, couples and families.

Marmaris Buggy Safari Programme The tour begins with a pick-up from your hotel and a comfortable drive of about 15 km north of Marmaris to the off-road venue. Two sessions run each day, the first starting at 10:00, so you can choose the time that suits you best. At the site, the instructors hold a short briefing to introduce your buggy and explain the route and safety rules, followed by a demo ride that helps you get a feel for the vehicle and the terrain. Then the convoy sets off on roughly one hour of driving through woodland, across riverbeds and along muddy tracks on the outskirts of Marmaris, with the professional team accompanying you throughout to keep everyone safe and on track. Expect bumps, splashes and plenty of laughter along the way. When the drive is over, you return to the base area, where showers and changing facilities let you wash off the mud and dust and put on fresh clothes. After a short rest, you are transferred back to your hotel.

Real, verified reviews from travellers who explored Turkey with us.
My husband and I chose Inca Tour for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did. The boutique hotel selection was beautiful and the Bosphorus dinner cruise was so romantic. Thank you for making our trip special!
It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
10+ years later we still talk about our Cappadocia balloon ride and the Bosphorus sunset cruise. Some memories are timeless. Thank you Inca Tour!
