Itinerario
Esplora le acque curative dei travertini e Hierapolis di Pamukkale in questo tour di un giorno. Con un inizio anticipato, sarai prelevato dal tuo hotel a Smirne, siediti nel comodo veicolo e goditi le quattro ore di viaggio fino a Pamukkale.
Pamukkale, che significa "castello di cotone" in turco, è una delle meraviglie naturali della Turchia, un pendio di terrazze bianche o travertini formati nel corso di migliaia di anni dai minerali che sgorgano dalle sorgenti termali alimentate dalle profondità della terra. Inizia ad esplorare l'antica città di Hierapolis, patrimonio mondiale dell'UNESCO. La città è unica rispetto a tutte le altre città antiche per essere stata costruita non su terra o roccia ma su solidi strati calcarei formati da acque ricche di minerali che scorrevano per millenni su questo altopiano di livello elevato. Hierapolis significa “città sacra” e le fu dato questo nome a causa del gran numero di templi che vi si trovano. Oggi il teatro, il Tempio di Apollo e la Necropoli sono tra i più significativi siti di interesse di Hierapolis. Durante il tour vedrai la Necropoli (Cimitero) di Hierapolis, uno dei più grandi siti di sepoltura antichi dell'Anatolia; un bagno romano, la Porta di Domiziano, la via principale della città antica, la Porta Bisanzio e il Ploutonion.
Goditi le acque curative di Pamukkale e cammina nelle terrazze naturali di acqua calda, formate dallo scorrere di acqua calda ricca di calcio. La temperatura dell'acqua è di circa 35 gradi Celsius tutto l'anno. Avrai la possibilità di vedere le scintillanti terrazze di travertino bianco di Pamukkale, situate vicino alle rovine di Hierapolis. L'effetto straordinario si crea quando l'acqua delle sorgenti termali perde i minerali che contiene mentre scorre lungo i pendii, lasciando depositi di calcare. Gli strati di carbonato di calcio bianco, costruiti a gradini sull'altopiano, hanno dato al sito il nome di "castello di cotone". Cogli l'occasione FACOLTATIVA per fare una nuotata nell'antica piscina di Cleopatra.
Goditi un pranzo locale dopo il tour e cogli l'occasione per dare un'occhiata all'artigianato tradizionale turco.
Al termine di una giornata memorabile, verrai ricondotto al tuo hotel a Smirne intorno alle 19:30 - 20:00.

It's fabulous but there just isn’t enough time to do everything considering the long drive from Izmir. The guide was knowledgeable and personable. I did enjoy seeing the countryside on the drive. The travertine pools are treacherously slippery. Cleopatra's pool was the highlight for me. It was a busy day so had to wait in line before and after swimming to use one of the limited changing rooms. I chose to pay for a golf cart ride to the theatre instead of walking. It was well worth paying for in order to have more swimming time. I got a round trip ticket and when we got to the top the driver said I had 15 minutes to take pictures. I hadn't noticed any signage informing me of this detail. Unless you are really into museums I would say skip it. The Buffet lunch was good. Be aware that there is always a "shopping experience " included with a tour.
Thank you for your kind review 😊
There is other tours with later start date that might be better, avoid this one, a normal drive to pamukkale would take 3 hours but with this operator it turns into a 5 hour ordeal, you start in a van with not many people then you make 1 random stop, then another stop to join a bus with 25 other people (they join people from different citiies) then on the way to pamukkale expect many other small stops, once there (we arrived around 11 am) you are given 1.5 hours of free time to enjoy the travertines, museum and swim... Honestly if it wasn't because it became a huge group it might have gone more smoothly. The worst part is that as it was not enough to to cut time at the place, you get forced to go to an onyx stone store... those 45 min I would have rather had at the archeological site. It feels rushed, like they are trying to save money and very tiring
Thank you for your review. This is a group tour with 3 different departure opitons Izmır, Selcuk / Kusadasi and Pamukkale.. The first pick up is always Izmir. Because it is quite a distance the departure time is early. It is not so easy to organise one tour from each location for any travel agency because the traveller numbers are never enough for a guarantee departure. The total nomber was 23 so not a huge group. A huge is group is 45 and more. Pamukkale is a unique site with its travertines and travellers like to spend time in the pools. Our guides give the historical information about the site and after showing the ruins they give free time to enjoy the hot springs. And the onyx part should not be a surprise because it can be seen in the itinerar when read carefluuy. For your next tours it is suggested to read the itinerary in details and see what you book Safe travels

Thank you for your kind review 😊
I’ve been on a few tours in my time but this one definitely blows all the rest away. From start to pick up me and my wife felt self and secure on the road with our top notch driver Nazif. The road trip was smooth and un-eventful, just the way I like it. He made our 2 hour+ drive as comfortable as possible. Our guide, Rafael, was next level. His knowledge of Hierapolis was both profound and insightful. I wasn’t just was blown away by his encyclopedic knowledge of Anatolia and Greek mythology but by the way he was able to spin that knowledge into a great story that had all of us hanging on the edge of our seats. Both Rafael and Nazif were friendly and personable and our group had an absolute blast. Trust me, if you’re going to take one of these tours, you’ll be doing yourself a great disservice if you don’t ask for Rafael by name. All together from booking to tours end, this experience has exceeded our expectations in every way!
