Discover one of Turkey’s natural treasures and take home some incredible pictures and unforgettable memories in this one day tour departing from Istanbul. The day begins with a transfer to the airport in Istanbul to take a little over an hour’s flight to Denizli airport and then a coach journey of 70 km to the wonderful calcium rock pools which form Pamukkale.
On the site of natural hot springs, the area has been in use for centuries and the remains of a Greco-Roman and Byzantine city known as Hierapolis are still visible and include an impressive amphitheatre and large burial ground known as the necropolis. The natural springs at the site have been used as a spa for thousands of years and the amazing landscape which forms Pamukkale (meaning Cotton Castle) was formed by calcium-filled springs pouring down the mountainside, its' glacier-white ridges and pools resembling an Arctic wonderland.
This wonderful phenomenon also includes the natural spring-filled Cleopatra’s pool where it is possible to swim over fallen ancient columns and enjoy the warm, bubbly water (extra charge may apply).
