Sarigerme 2026 Calendar of Events

Hi we went on this trip for the day and was amazing from start to end, pick up from the hotel taken to main coach, transported to marina, small walk to boat, not many on boat only 16 so loads of room can be more crowded in peek of the Summer, plenty of drinks and ice cream to buy on board, food was included ( amazing ) lost of stops and changes to go in the see very needed when so hot, the guide we had with us was very good been with the company 4 years says it all all in all excellent value for money and very well organised

Great trip on a well maintained boat (Carpe Diem) with really friendly and helpful crew, I would recommend them. We were picked up in a small bus then transferred to a big coach that was waiting at another hotel so took just over an hour from Sarigerme. The guide explained the trip, stops and that the cash payment for the trip would be taken at the end but a bar tab would be set up and was payable at the end by card. The bar was well stocked and the staff were great, well priced too. The trip itself stopped 4 times for a swim and the last one was at a small island you could walk on. The boat had fresh water showers, male and female toilets and a changing closet. They also provided life vests (for swimming), pool noodles and had a paddle board. The lunch of chicken pasta and salad was really good and a generous portion and also had a small starter and surprise dessert. It was a pleasant surprise as my wife is quite fussy but even she enjoyed it. The skipper was good, we were in and out of every stop with ease and it was smooth sailing between. The only small negatives were the short walk from the bus to the boat and back. It was fine for me but in the heat some may struggle, however, it seemed this was as close as it could get. The other was the transfer back, when the bus stopped we were put in a car with another couple to get dropped at the hotel. It was a nice car and short drive but seemed a little strange. I would still recommend and would use them again, excellent value.

We had an amazing family day on the Dalyan River Cruise! The whole trip was well organised and offered the perfect mix of relaxation, sightseeing, and fun. The mud baths were a unique experience and definitely worth trying, and Turtle Beach was absolutely beautiful with its soft sand and crystal-clear water and most importantly, we seen several turtles 🐢. A special thank you to our host, Suger, who made everyone feel welcome from the start. Our tour guide was excellent, friendly, knowledgeable, and shared fascinating information about the area's history, wildlife, and the famous loggerhead turtles. The boat was comfortable, the scenery along the river was stunning, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Dalyan area. It was one of the highlights of our holiday!

We did this tour during our recent trip to Sarigerme and highly recommend the guides,the tour and Basket Travel for any trips in the area.This our third year using them.The mud baths were an amazing experience.The lunch stop was amazing also and the food was great.The history tour of the river and tombs by Karim were top notch with facts and humour.Turtle Beach is simply an experience you have to be there to soak in.Crystal clear water and an amazing beach.

We booked two trips Fethiye market (half day) and Marmaris shuttle. Very easy booking process, you can what’s app with the details or in the village.Both trips our minibus was on time, we paid on pickup. You can pay in Pounds, Euro or LiraWe would have booked the Dalyan by night but we didn’t have enough time

We had an amazing experience with Sarigerme diving center! During holiday, they took our children scuba diving for the very first time in Turkey, and everything was absolutely fantastic. The team was very attentive, professional, and made us feel completely safe throughout the whole experience. Our children had an unforgettable holiday adventure and came back smiling from ear to ear. We also really appreciated the beautiful photos and videos they provided as a wonderful memory of this special day. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a safe, professional, and memorable diving experience. Thank you for making our children's first dive so special!

On time... good advance information... clean vehicles... transparent pricing. We will use Basket again.

Fantastic, flight arrived early, and Suat was ready for us with our name on tablet. Spotless van, professional driver with meet/greet at airport and easy transfer from BJV to Bodrum hotel.

I am very happy with the Service! The transport company was punctual, reliable and very professional. Everything was transported carefully and without damage. The contact was friendly and straightforward – highly recommended!

Just completed a scuba diving course with my 2 sons, very professional and good fun. We will definitely be going back next year

Amazing trip totally recommend the boat was well maintained clean much was fantastic, a must tour to book, the hotel pick up was good and drop back all in all a relaxing day out!

Great tour guide, lovely surroundings very good quality package. Great vehicles used no expense spared would highly recommend. The views the vistas and that water was amazing clear blue you could see the fishes as you eat and then all the waste goes to a dog shelter so there ethical as well.

The jeep safari was something of a surprise in that it was our best day out of our holiday with our 18 and 15 year old children. The driver drove through rivers, stopped at fig trees and grape vines to give us fruit fresh from the source, we swam in a lake, cooled down in a mountain stream and ate at a superb gorge restaurant, where the tables sat in the river bed. Such a great day.

This was by far the best boat trip we have been on. Beautiful locations for swimming and snorkelling. Runi deserves a mention as he was fantastic, he entertained us on the coach journey to the harbour with a history lesson about Turkey. He was enthusiastic throughout the day, nothing was too much trouble. The staff on the boat were also very polite and helpful and clearly enjoyed what they do. Another mention must go to Mustafa who we booked the trip with in Sarigerme, again very helpful and always smiling. Not only did he book the trips in the evening he was also part of the crew for the trips. You will not be disappointed if you book this trip, great value for money and lunch is superb! Thank you Runi, Mustafa and team for making it a memorable day, we will be back! J Statham

Just back from a very memorable 12 island boat trip with Basket.For 4 people (inc 1 child) the price of £126 for a full day was excellent, including a very nice meal (as good as we have had on a day out - the chicken was superb).The staff we encountered were superb, including our funny and helpful guide Kerim and all of the staff aboard Carpe Diem. They worked very hard to keep things running smoothly.

What a great day out. Karim was a fantastic guide. He was very humourous and kept the group engaged. On the journey to the mud baths, he even had the driver stop the coach to rescue a turtle from the road. Mud baths experience was fun and it was great to see the turtles and spend time at the beach. The boat trip was also good. Lunch was basic but it was nice to have a view of the tombs while eating. Karim was very knowledgeable throughout the experience and was able to share a lot of information on the local area and Turkiye itself. Thank you.
