Pamukkale, the marvellous attraction of Turkey, is a must-see and should be on your list even you are in Antalya. On our guided one-day tour from Side, have a day of wonder at the ‘’Cotton Castle’’ of the World, enjoying the hot springs, the dazzling white coated travertines and the ancient city ruins of Hierapolis.

Early morning departure at 05:30 with a pick-up from your centrally located Antalya hotel, first stop will be in Korkuteli (approx. three hours after departure) for breakfast. As it is a considerably long journey from Antalya (around five hours), there will be a total of several stops to make your trip as smooth as possible in our air-conditioned luxury vehicle.

Last stop before lunch will be in Denizli (the centre of Turkish textile), the nearest big city to Pamukkale where you will enjoy stunning panoramic views. Next is buffet lunch at a local restaurant in surroundings of Pamukkale where you can have a peek at the stunning white terraces from a distance.

Upon arrival in Pamukkale, your first visit is to the ruins of the ancient city of Hierapolis which includes an amphitheatre, great city walls, bath houses and necropolis and where you can find out about the history and culture of this unique location. Due to the neighbouring divine white terraces of travertines and historical values of the ancient city, Hierapolis was added to UNESCO World Cultural Heritage list in 1988.

After your cultural tour, have a walk on the terraces of carbonate minerals left by flowing water and bathe in the natural pools of hot spring water. At a near location to Hierapolis ruins, there is the ancient pool called ‘’Cleopatra’s Pool’’ where you can soak in at an additional charge.
