Avsallar
Avsallar is the resort town just east of Okurcalar and İncekum, on the western approach to Alanya. It is a working holiday town rather than a strip of isolated resorts — there is a centre, there are shops, and the hotels sit along the beach and back from it in roughly equal measure.
Twenty-four Avsallar hotels are on our pickup list, among them Alaiye Resort & Spa, the Annabella Diamond and Annabella Park, and Antik Hotel. Between Avsallar and neighbouring İncekum this is one of the densest pickup areas on the western side.
How pickup from Avsallar works
You are collected from your Avsallar hotel and driven inland to the safari base. The base is not in Avsallar and not on the coast — the whole point of an off-road route is that it is nowhere near a main road, so the transfer is part of getting there and part of the price.
Hotels we hold in Avsallar
Our directory has 24 Avsallar hotels on file. If yours is not one of them, type it into the booking form — the field is free text and we confirm every pickup with you before the day.
Timing
Two sessions, every day
Morning session
The earlier air and the cooler ground. Popular with guests who want the rest of the day still ahead of them.
Afternoon session
A later start for a slower morning. The light is lower by the end of the ride.
08:00 and 13:00 are session start times — not pick-up times
This is the one thing worth reading twice. Your session begins at 08:00 or 13:00. Your hotel pick-up happens earlier than that, and the exact minute depends on where your hotel sits on the transfer route and how the day is scheduled. We confirm your pick-up time to you after you book, rather than printing a time here that would be wrong for most hotels.
Before you book
Can I drive?
16 and over
Drivers must be 16 or older. Bring ID — it is checked as proof of age, not as a licence.
No driving licence needed
This safari runs on a private off-road course, not on public roads, so a driving licence is not required to take part. What we do require is the briefing and the test drive.
Everyone does the test drive
Every guest who wants to drive completes the safety briefing and a short test drive first. It is a genuine check, not a formality.
The team has the final say
Our guides decide whether a driver is safe and suitable to take the route. If the answer is no on the day, nobody's holiday is over: you ride exactly the same route as a passenger, at half the driver price.
