A More Reasonable Start (06:00 – 07:00): We’ll pick you up from your Antalya hotel at a time that actually lets you get some sleep. You’ll travel in our modern, air-conditioned minivan with a small group of no more than 16 guests.
Arrival & Lunch: After a scenic drive through the mountains, our first stop in Pamukkale is a local restaurant. We eat first to make sure everyone is fueled up and ready for a full afternoon of walking and exploring.
Ancient Hierapolis: After lunch, we head straight to the ruins. Your guide will show you the Necropolis, the Roman Baths, and the massive Ancient Theater. Being in a small group means you can actually hear the guide and move through the site much faster.
Cleopatra’s Antique Pool: We’ll take a break at the thermal pool area. You can choose to swim among the original Roman columns that sit at the bottom of the warm springs or just enjoy the shade with a cold drink.
The White Travertines: We save plenty of time for the main event. You can take your shoes off and walk barefoot through the warm, mineral-rich water on the white cliffs. It’s an incredible feeling, and your guide will show you the best spots to grab photos away from the biggest crowds.
Heading Home: After a full afternoon of exploring both nature and history, we’ll head back over the mountains, getting you back to Antalya in the evening.
