Hierapolis & Pamukkale - The trip to Pamukkale takes approximately 3 hours in total. A brief stop will be made halfway to allow guests to stretch and enjoy a beverage.
Upon arrival in Pamukkale, visitors will be greeted by the Necropolis of Hierapolis, one of Anatolia’s largest ancient cemeteries, featuring 1,200 tombs. Guests will explore the Roman Baths, the Domitian Gate, the Main Street, and the Byzantine Gate. - Pamukkale Thermal Pools - Following this, guests will walk to the naturally heated water terraces, where calcium-rich hot water flows. The water temperature is around 35°C. Visitors will also witness Pamukkale’s bright white travertine terraces, located near the ruins of Hierapolis. This remarkable effect occurs as hot water loses carbon dioxide, leaving limestone deposits as it flows down the slopes. The accumulation of white calcium carbonate on the terraces creates this stunning effect, giving the area its name “Pamukkale,” resembling a giant cotton ball mountain.
- Cleopatra Pools - A lunch break will be provided, with meals served buffet-style. After lunch, guests can swim in the hot red thermal pools. For those wishing to swim in the Antique Pool, also known as the “Cleopatra Pool,” a small additional fee applies. The Cleopatra Pool is heated by hot water springs and features ancient marble column fragments at the bottom. This pool, possibly linked to the Temple of Apollo, offers a unique opportunity to swim among ancient ruins! During the Roman era, columned porticos surrounded the pool; earthquakes caused them to fall into the water, where they remain today.
- Okuz Mehmet Pasa KervansarayI - The tour will conclude, and the journey back will commence. After exploring the Pamukkale region, the group will head towards Kusadasi Port, where the ship is docked. The guide will introduce guests to the Ox Mehmet Pasha Caravanserai, which will be passed during the journey. It was constructed in 1618.
- Güvercinada Kalesi (Küçükada) - Upon reaching the coastline, the guide will present the Kusadasi Castle. The castle, encompassing the entire Pigeon Island, was built in the late 13th century and repaired by Ox Mehmet Pasha in 1613. In 1957, a road was built to connect the island to the mainland.
