pamukkale tour from belek hotels
Description
Hierapolis ("Holy City") was an ancient Greco-Roamn city in Phrygia located on hot springs in South West Anatolia. Its ruins are adjacent to maodern Pamukkale. Hierapolis is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The hot springs there have been used as a spa since the 2nd Century B.C.E. and people came to soothe their ailments with many of them retiring or dying here. Some of the highlights; the large necropolis is filled with sarcophagi, the main street with the gates and latrines, cathedral, the theatre and St. Philips tomb. The hot springs causing cascades which are called the Cotton Castle. Because of the distance we have to leave Antalya early and return late but its worth it to experince this wonderful place.

Long journey there and back, looks much better in the photos. Very little water in the pools and very slippery.
We had such a fun experience, antalya is really a beautiful country! We had the best tour guide with excellent communication skills and easy to talk to and understand!
Great tour, everything was planned very well. Our tour guide was Bekir, he was resourceful and provided plenty of useful information. I highly recommend this tour.
A very good experience. The super friendly staff especially Aya. He gave us very good recommendations on what tour to do depending on what we wanted to do. My partner and I were super happy. I recommend it 100%.
It was perfect. Very nice tour guide. the weather was great. The trip was easy, I have nothing to add. This was my first excursion in Turkey, I absolutely recommend it. Thank you!
Everything was good. On time, good English speakers, and helpful. The breakfast and lunch was not great though.
We had an amazing experience with the agency, especially with our guide Bekir. The driver was punctual and the places we visited were magical. The trip was smooth and super fun, since Bekir brought history and funny interesting facts about Antalya and Turkey in general. We opt for the paragliding experience that was incredible, the team was great fun, the view is stunning and totally worth to purchase the photos and videos. We stopped for 4 hours to see the public pool, Hierapolis and swimming at Kleopatra's pool. We loved that our guide gave us plenty of time to enjoy and choose how long we wanted to spend in each place. Didn't feel rushed like other tours. Definitely recommend saving time for the Kleopatra's pool, warm healing waters that reenergized us. Recommend to get the shuttle to the top so you save time. We had a VIP pass with Berik, so no queues for entry. The lunch was in a really nice restaurant, food was great. Can't recommend more. This tour was 200% perfect and definitely will do again when back to Antalya.
It was amazing tour small groups quality time in each spot amazing simple lunch with a vibe of the greatest tour guid ever I recommend
The trip could be better organised. The title said from Belek, not Antalya, to Pamukkale... to make the long story short, I was picked up punctually at 6 am and we only arrived in Pamukkale 7 hrs later! Not because its distance but because we went back to Antalya, zigzagging around hotels which took 2.5 hrs and then 3 unnecessary stops on the road! Also, having lunch at noon and then heading to the site, under such hot weather, could have been better planned. I suggest next time you offer the breakfast on our way to Pamukkale but skip lunch, arrive earlier at Pamukkale and let guests decide where, when and if we want to have lunch. It would have been more logical. Also, when going back, it took 1.5 hrs since we arrived in Antalya to head back to Belek. It was not the driver's fault, there was not much traffic and none of the other guests were ever late. Perhaps change the title of this tour to "Pamukkale from Antalya"!
Pumukkale is a must see destination if you love a good landscape photo. With ancient roman ruins and beautiful white cliffs with thermal pools overlooking city and mountains alike. Also, the Cleopaterah pool offered a refreshing swim on a warm day. Our guide Bekir was absolutely fantastic. His knowledge of the tour and the surrounding area were terrific. Really engaged with the group as a whole and was very approachable the whole time, encouraging the group to ask questions and discuss among ourselves. Took us to a great spot above Antalya, allowing us to get an amazing photo of the city as an extra after the tour of Pamukkale. Made what I expected to be a memorable tour that much better with his passion and enthusiasm.
