Overview

This tour takes you to Pamukkale, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its dazzling white terraces formed by calcium-rich thermal waters. Known as the "Cotton Castle," Pamukkale offers a surreal landscape that feels like stepping into a dream. Visitors can walk barefoot along the warm, mineral-filled travertines, known for their therapeutic properties. With the soothing waters cascading over the terraces, it's the perfect spot for relaxation and awe-inspiring views.

Adjacent to Pamukkale lies the ancient city of Hierapolis, a marvel of Greco-Roman architecture. Founded in the 2nd century BCE, this site features well-preserved ruins, including a grand theater, Roman baths, and the Necropolis, one of the largest ancient cemeteries. You’ll also have the option to visit the Cleopatra Pool, a natural thermal pool surrounded by ancient columns and believed to have rejuvenating powers. The rich history and cultural significance of Hierapolis make this visit an educational and inspiring experience.

Start your day with a hearty breakfast at Bekçiler Şafak Restaurant, preparing you for the adventure ahead. After your exploration of Pamukkale, enjoy a delicious lunch at Tamer Restaurant, where you’ll savor local Turkish flavors in a relaxed setting. These meals are included in your tour, ensuring you’re well-nourished for the journey.

After lunch, you’ll visit a local onyx store, where you can admire exquisite handcrafted items made from this unique stone. This stop offers a glimpse into local craftsmanship and the opportunity to purchase souvenirs to commemorate your trip.

Your day is made even better with round-trip transportation in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. With expert guidance throughout the tour, you can sit back, relax, and immerse yourself in the experience without worrying about logistics.

Our tour operator was very responsive, which made the whole process easy. The guide was knowledgeable and engaging, so the journey didn’t feel too long. Lunch was provided after the visit, and we also had a toilet break on the way back. Pamukkale was absolutely beautiful and definitely worth seein...

Incredible experience. Our guide was truly outstanding. Full of knowledge and enthusiasm, he kept us entertained throughout the bus ride, which made the journey feel much shorter. We had a good amount of time at Pamukkale, though we could have easily spent days exploring.

The tour was very well organized. Thank you so much! Both our guide and driver were excellent. She shared a lot of interesting information, kept things light and fun, and made sure we all felt safe and relaxed. Pamukkale itself is stunning. You get about three hours there, which is enough to see both the ancient ruins and the calcium terraces if you plan your time well. If you also want to swim in Cleopatra’s Pool, you’ll likely need more time. It’s quite crowded and not as impressive as expected. The terraces are busy too, but you can still find great spots for beautiful photos. The included breakfast and lunch were decent, with options for everyone. Overall, we definitely recommend this tour. Thanks again!
