Pamukkale – Hierapolis (Cotton Castle)

🌿 Pamukkale & Hierapolis Tour from Ölüdeniz – A Day of Natural Beauty & Ancient Wonders 🌿

Discover one of Turkey’s most iconic natural and historical treasures with our full-day guided tour to Pamukkale and Hierapolis—a must-see destination that combines breathtaking landscapes with a rich tapestry of history and healing.

Your adventure begins with an early morning departure from Ölüdeniz, followed by a delicious traditional Turkish breakfast en route in a charming village nestled in the countryside. As we journey across the scenic Taurus Mountains, the dramatic landscape shifts from pine forests to open agricultural plains, offering a deeper glimpse into the authentic, rural heart of Turkey.

Arriving at Pamukkale, also known as “Cotton Castle,” you’ll be captivated by the dazzling white terraces formed over millennia by mineral-rich hot springs. The cascading travertine pools, created by deposits of calcium carbonate, are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and offer a surreal, otherworldly beauty you won’t find anywhere else.

Wander barefoot across the smooth, warm travertine shelves, soak your feet in the soothing waters, and snap stunning photos that look like they belong in a dream.

🌸 Optional Highlight: Treat yourself to a rejuvenating swim in the legendary Cleopatra’s Pool, a thermal spring once frequented by Roman aristocracy. Surrounded by submerged marble columns and crystal-clear warm waters, it’s an experience steeped in both myth and relaxation.

Step back in time as we explore Hierapolis, the ancient Greco-Roman city built above the terraces. With over 2,300 years of history, this site was famed as a spa town in antiquity. You’ll visit impressive ruins including the necropolis, Roman baths, temples, and the awe-inspiring amphitheater, one of the best-preserved in the world.

After soaking up the natural and historical beauty of the area, we’ll enjoy a delicious local lunch, giving you a taste of traditional Turkish cuisine before making our way back to Ölüdeniz.

By late evening, we’ll return to your hotel, leaving you with unforgettable memories of one of Turkey’s most magical destinations.
