ITINERARY
- Departing from Antalya in the early morning, a fully air-conditioned minibus will pick you up from your hotel. All transfers are made with comfortable and modern minibuses. Tour guide will welcome you and provide the final details of the schedule. After meeting the professional tour guide, your trip will start to Pamukkale, on the Unesco World Heritage List. We’ll first arrive to Korkuteli, a district of Antalya. Take a breakfast break in Korkuteli before visiting the cascading snow-white terraced cliffs of this mysterious cotton palace.
- You'll take in panoramic views of Pamukkale and enjoy a lunch break at a local restaurant.
- Throughout the day, you will visit one of the area's most significant sites: the ancient city of Hierapolis, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Hierapolis, or "holy city", was an ancient Greco-Roman city in Phrygia, located on top of hot springs in Southwest Anatolia. This ancient city, which was famous for its baths in historical times, is a civilization that has hosted many people who want to treat themselves. The ruins feature the Roman Amphitheater, Necropolis, an authentic historical center, St Philippe Basilica, and the Roman baths.
- The Cleopatra’s Pool, nestled among the ruins of Hierapolis, boasts hot spring waters with renowned healing properties. The current pool's shape was formed by an earthquake in the 7th century AD, causing the marble portico with Ionic columns to collapse into the spring. These monumental pieces are still visible through the crystal-clear waters, providing a unique swimming experience. The spring water temperatures range between 36°C and 57°C, with a pH value of approximately 5.8. Rich in bicarbonates and sulfates, and containing small amounts of dissolved iron and trace radioactivity, the waters are safe for swimming. During the free time provided on the tour, you can enjoy swimming in the Cleopatra Pool.
- Pamukkale Travertines, also known as the Cotton Castle, is another fascinating site you will visit during the day. The rock formations in Pamukkale contain hot spring with terraces of carbonate minerals that relax for bathing.This natural wonder is one of the most impressive and most photographed locations in the country. The dreamlike landscape is filled with fantastic stalactites and white terraces with flowing water. Take your time to stroll around and capture some stunning photos.
- Feeling energized and relaxed, you will then board the minibus and return to Antalya. The tour finishes in the evening when you arrive back at your hotel.
