Daily Pamukkale Tour from Izmir

(Lunch included)

Start your day with a convenient morning pickup from your hotel in Izmir. Our journey begins as we travel through the scenic landscapes of the Aegean region, heading toward Pamukkale, also known as the Cotton Castle, a world-famous natural wonder and UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Upon arrival, explore the stunning white travertine terraces formed by the calcium-rich thermal waters that have flowed for centuries, creating this surreal landscape. Take in the beauty of the cascading pools and enjoy the opportunity to walk barefoot on the warm mineral-rich waters.

Next, discover the ancient city of Hierapolis, an open-air archaeological museum featuring incredible Roman ruins. You’ll visit iconic landmarks such as:

• The Great Roman Theatre

• The Necropolis with over 1,200 sarcophagi

• The Temple of Apollo

• The Tomb of St. Philip

• The Roman Baths and gymnasium, now functioning as a museum

You will also have the chance to swim in the Cleopatra Antique Pool (optional, with an additional entrance fee), where ancient columns rest beneath warm, healing waters that once welcomed Roman royalty.

After your guided tour, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant. Then, take some time to explore Turkish handicrafts, with optional visits to a leather factory, textile outlet, onyx and jewelry shops, or a Turkish delight store for sweet souvenirs.

Around 15:30 – 16:30, we begin our return journey to Izmir and drop you off at your hotel, ending a full day of history, nature, and cultural discovery. We hope your tour was a memorable one and we look forward to seeing you in the future on another TravelShop Booking Tour.
