will have to make sure we pack our oldest shorts and teeshirts to go on it.
any tips on the best place to book it in oludeniz? also, are there ones that do not go to the carpet factory, as everywhere round the world we have been - we seem to end up in a carpet factory lol.
its a real good day out the jeep safari i went on one two years ago visted a carpet making place and the mudbath and lots more a full day job.. great!
My OH and I are off to Turkey on Monday, and I quite fancy the idea of a jeep safari, and I am sure he will love it, too. But I have one major concern, which is I am very short sighted, and need my glasses. Even if I could get contacts sorted in time to go, I couldnt wear them all day, so..Is the safari too rough, are my glasses likely to get damaged?
And I think I have figured out the Blue Fish thing, and if I have, will that affect my glasses?
I know it sounds petty, but without them, I am practically blind, and I only have the one pair (plus sunnies!)
Thanks
Just mentioned this to OH and he really wants to do it, but would like to drive the jeep? Is that allowed? And I assume that would mean him having to take his driving license with us?
Thanks
With regards to driving your own jeep, some companies allow this but I would leave it the experts, If your driving you don;t get chance to admire all the scenery as you will need to concentrate on the road especially when off roading.

an anyone tell me what the jeep safari trips are like? I have twins of 5 who I "think" would enjoy it - just wondered if it was suitable for them or if best to stick to the boat trips.
hi cass, personally i would not take children on the jeep safari as friends of mine in marmaris had a nasty accident, when the driver was going so fast they went over the side of a cliff (my friends were just cut and bruised but one woman was paralised) so i would stick to boat trips, hope you have a great time lucky you im not there till july......tracy
We want to go on the jeep safari when we go to Marmaris in July. As we've read that most people take water guns on this day out to shoot at each others jeeps - i wondered where do you buy the water guns from?
Shall we buy some cheap ones from the UK to take with us, do we buy them somewhere in Marmaris before we book the trip or do the jeeps drop you off somewhere to get them before the journey starts (and if so how much are they)???
Thanks - Malita and kids!!!

go to tansas or mgros and get them before you go on the trip........... OR get a 2 litre water/coke bottle and carefully punch a hole in the top........just as good and lasts longer

Just got back from Marmaris 11/7, superb week again but was informed during the holiday of a tragic accident happening resulting in a fatality and other members of the same British family left in critical condition, I spoke to a Turkish friend and he confirmed this tragic accident. I feel that other members must know about the risks involved, I don't know the full facts but hopefully the real facts will be revealed. It took the gloss off the holiday I just can't get this out of my head. I heard other people booking jeep safari's and felt like warning them of what had happened to reconsider their choices, it seems that the local street dealers were still touting their trips. Please don't think I'm scaremongering I just feel so touched by this accident and my heart goes out to the people affected.

I will put a report on here next week has my mum passed away while we were on holiday
Once we get funeral over with i will put full report on about the new termanil the hotel armar were we stayed and the tragic accident that accured on the jeep safari.
There was also the incident the week before of the wire snapping whilst 2 ladies were parasailing during a thunderstorm.I witnessed that happen and whislst it was horrifying at the time,luckily both girls escaped with bruises after drifting over the resot of Marmaris.
sorry to hear about your mum Celine, deepest sympathies.
so what happened ?
Celine so sorry to hear about your mother.
some of the drivers drive like maniacs
surely the people who sell these excursions ie to/side stalls
are in some way liable
do their have insurance for this as iam quite sure travel insurance dont cover,
great sympathy to those effected by this tragic accident
