Hotel Pickup on Alanya Boat Trips — Which Zone Each Boat Covers

Hotel pickup is included on every boat trip this site sells, but the pickup zone differs by boat. The pirate galleon, Starcraft day cruise, fishing trip and private yacht collect from central Alanya. The night disco boat also covers Mahmutlar and Kestel. The Green Canyon day is the only trip with recorded Avsallar pickup. The sunset and Suluada trips collect along the Alanya resort strip. Exact times are confirmed per hotel after booking.

Pickup is included — the zone is the small print

Every trip on this site lists round-trip hotel transfer among its inclusions — within the boat's own recorded zone it costs nothing extra. What the listings rarely spell out is that the collection zone is not the same from boat to boat — it is set per product, and the differences are big enough to matter when you choose.

So instead of a vague 'hotel transfer included' line, here is what each boat's own record says. If your hotel is inside the zone, you are covered. If it is not, the honest options are further down the page.

The zones, boat by boat

  • Pirate galleon (€20 adult / €14 child) — central Alanya only. Hotels outside the central zone are recorded as excluded and handled on request, so ask before you book.
  • Starcraft day cruise (€35 / €25) — central Alanya; distant outlying resorts are excluded.
  • Night disco boat (€48 / €34) — central Alanya, Mahmutlar and Kestel; anything outside that standard zone is excluded.
  • Sunset boat (€35 / €25) — the Alanya resort strip. The record does not list sub-areas, so ask us to confirm your hotel.
  • Fishing trip (€50 / €35) — central Alanya, in air-conditioned vehicles.
  • Green Canyon day (€33 / €20) — Alanya and Avsallar. This is the only trip with Avsallar pickup on record.
  • Manavgat river day (€43 / €30) — from Alanya, by air-conditioned coach; the trip runs Mondays and Thursdays.
  • Suluada (€43 / €30) — the Alanya resort strip, on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday departures.
  • Private yacht (€580 — the price of the whole boat, never per person) — central Alanya districts.

Staying in Mahmutlar, Kestel or Avsallar?

These three district names deserve their own section, because each appears in exactly one record. Mahmutlar and Kestel are listed by one boat: the night disco cruise. Avsallar is listed by one trip: the Green Canyon day. No other boat names them.

If you are in one of these districts and want a different boat, write to us before booking and we will tell you straight whether it can be arranged. On the pirate galleon, for example, outside-central pickup is handled on request — and a request is not a promise. We would rather say no by message than leave you waiting in a lobby.

Why there is no pickup time on this page

Pickup times are confirmed per hotel after you book — that is the recorded policy on every boat, and it is why no clock time is printed here. A page that shows one fixed time for every hotel in Alanya is guessing, and a guessed time is how people miss boats.

What you can rely on: the time you are given is for your hotel specifically, and cancellation is free up to 24 hours before departure if plans change.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is hotel pickup included on Alanya boat trips?
Yes — every trip sold on this site includes hotel pickup and return at no extra charge. What differs is the zone, which is set per boat: only specific boats cover Mahmutlar, Kestel or Avsallar. Check the boat-by-boat list on this page before you book.
Which Alanya boat picks up from Mahmutlar or Kestel?
Only the night disco boat (€48 adult / €34 child) records Mahmutlar and Kestel in its pickup zone. No day boat lists either district — if you are staying there and want a daytime trip, write to us before booking rather than assuming.
Which boat trip picks up from Avsallar?
The Green Canyon day (€33 adult / €20 child) — it is the only product with Avsallar pickup on record. Every other boat collects within Alanya's own zones.
What time will I be picked up from my hotel?
There is no fixed published time. Pickup is confirmed per hotel after booking — that is the recorded policy on every boat, which is why this page prints no clock time at all.
What if my hotel is outside the pickup zone?
It depends on the boat. On the pirate galleon, pickup outside central Alanya is recorded as excluded and handled on request. The Starcraft excludes distant outlying resorts, and the disco boat excludes anything beyond its standard zone. Ask before you book — cancellation is free up to 24 hours before departure either way.
