Advantages: Everything! Disadvantages: Limited disabled access to certain attractions
. Although the animals basically roam free, there are many staff in protective cars in case of problems and gates to keep animals separate, so I felt at ease and could still enjoy the safari feel. It was even better than I could imagine an African safari being!
It was amazing how close some of the animals came, though luckily we didn't get any rogue monkeys jump on the car, although the person in front had a few monkeys pull off their windscreen wipers which was unnerving though slightly funny, especially as it wasn't our car! The lions were quite close to us, though simply sat and roamed minding their own business as did the giraffes, rhinos and other great animals.

The other alternative was to take a walk up to the Turtle sanctuary for injured turtles. Even though there are two types of turtle around Dalyan (being the Loggerhead or the green sea turtle) I did notice that there were only Loggerheads in the sanctuary. Is it green sea turtles are more intelligent than loggerheads or is it local people don?t care as much about green sea turtles (since there are loads of them) as much as the loggerheads and don?t report injured ones?
Once we had looked around the sanctuary, had a swim etc. it was time to head back to the centre of Dalyan where we were all dropped off at our respective hotels.
Conclusion
The jeep safari is a very long day and even ...
