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.

Baran was an exceptional tour guide who provided outstanding service. He made our trip to Pamukkale unforgettable.
The old ruins were really amazing although the water to terraces where off so not as advertised. Try to book when water is running Our guide, Khan, was spectacular!
This tour is a must: soak your legs in thermal water surrounded by white rocks , Cleopatra’s pool with healing powers, visit the ruins. It’s a long tour day as it’s 3 hours away from Antalya but well worth it. Baran our guide made this special explaining history and some funny facts. You will really enjoy it!

This is an excellent tour. Our tour guide Baran was great. He provided us with a lot of information regarding Turkey, Pamukkala’s ancient history and some other fun facts :) This tour is long 12 hours but worth it, to swim in Cleopatra’s pool and walk through water on a white rock mountain, visit an ancient coliseum… Incredible!

He explained the history, culture, and significance of every place in great detail, making the trip both enjoyable and informative. What stood out the most was his ability to answer all our questions and help us understand every aspect of the destination.

It was one of the best experience of my life and it was made special by the company of our tour guide Baran who filled in with lot of information. He was such a gentleman in dealing with all of us and maintained the group pergectly with ease. He was spot on keeping times as well. I would recommend him 100 percent and would really want him as our tour guide for my next trip as well.
We had an amazing experience with our tour and our guide! The programme was well planned, there was no rush and we had plenty of time to see everything, even experience paragliding. Some of things were pricy, however it’s completely up to you if you want to spend money for them or not. Our guide, Baran, was very friendly and attentive, he told us lots of interesting information about Turkey, always checked if everyone was around, explained all the details and spoke really well English!
The family tour is excellent and my self and family enjoyed a lot. The tour guide Mr. Baran, is very interesting person and keep a interaction with all the members.
Was hot as balls, but our guide Baran was excellent! Def bring sunscreen to the cleopatra pools if you burn easily. Light clothes and a towel/swimsuit to swim. Excellent for families.
It was a great and fulfilling day. The driver and the guide were very welcoming. The guide spoke good English and explained everything clearly and understandably. Thank you! 🙃
Baran is simply amazing guide! Very knowledgeable!
Baran is a Very good guide , well informed on historical facts of location.
A Pullman is way better than a regular bus. Wider seats, smoother ride, proper AC, and you don’t feel every bump on the road. On a long trip you really feel the difference in your back and legs.
Very detailed explanation in each view, even videos showed to us. Baren was very warm and welcoming. The planning was very good prepared. The visit was around 9hours.
It was a great experience, just too many pause was set, that mean it was a long drive. But it was okey after all we enjoyed the food and Pamukale
Baran was an excellent tour guide. I honestly can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a guided tour this much or found a tour guide so genuinely helpful. My partner and I usually do our own research and travel independently, but we decided to do something different on this trip, and we’re so glad we did. Baran was kind, knowledgeable, funny, and incredibly punctual with the schedule. His experience, depth of knowledge, and fluency in English gave us a great understanding of everything we saw without ever making it feel overwhelming. He was also very considerate of everyone in the group, making sure everyone was comfortable throughout the day. If you’re lucky enough to have Baran as your tour guide, be prepared to be amazed, have a good laugh, and enjoy a relaxed, well-organised journey. Thank you, Baran, for making our Pamukkale and Hierapolis tour such a memorable experience!
