Pamukkale 2026

Seeing Pamukkale and Hierapolis was one of my dreams, as an history passionate. Coming with this tour was the best choice for a solo traveller, because i could save money and get some precious information i couldn’t have alone. Special mention for our guide, Nur Sultan, wich showed and explain with the competence and the passion that only a person born there could have. Plus: she is very funny! Tour includes: Breakfast Good lunch (beverages extra) Wine tasting Entrance in Hierapolis, pools and travertines are extra, so i got the Aegean museum card, wich helped me save a lot of money in all the museum nearby southern turkey.

Cleopatra pool - not worth the money

Great experience as a couple. The Bus had AC, the lunch was very good. But the Cleopatra Pool should have been included in the price, it is not worth 20 dollars. We also missed some extra time to visit the place. It was too short.

A wonderful experience 😊

First of all, this was my first experience having such a wonderful and enjoyable time, and of course, Pamukkale captivated us with its unique and historical atmosphere. We would also like to thank our guide, Ms. Nur, whose cheerful demeanor and sincerity added color to our tour and made this beautiful day even more interesting and wonderful. First experience, first excitement...

A lovely excursion supported by knowledgeable tour guide

From an early start of 5am from our hotel in Icemeler our journey couldn't have been any smoother. The coach arrived on time with plenty of room for the journey ahead. Greeted by a warm, humourous and friendly tour guide Sultan Nur her knowledge of Pumakkule was great, her historical insight of the site and reasonings behind the Cleopatra pool were well researched. The actual tour had a fine balance between information and giving the group time to explore the site. Seeing spectacular views from the Amphitheatre, to a lovely dip in the Cleopatra pool and then joining the hoardes in the thermal waters - cue mass selfies while watching your step. Breakfast and lunch were well timed although felt a little bit disorganised from the restaurant with regards to their optional drinks. The wine tasting/orca stops were nice although wasn't sold on the sales staff for the tastings after which seemed a bit excessive in areas. Overall my wife and I enjoyed our adventure and thanks for a lovely tour.

Amazing day out ❤️

Amazing guide she was very fun making it enjoyable to be a part of and helpful with useful facts. Would definitely recommend as never felt rushed had plentyof time at each stop feeling peaceful and a calm atmosphere. Whole coach full never felt crowded anywhere we went and was time for everyone to explore. Food was great at lunch harder for picky eaters so bring snacks if you know your hard to please. Amazing value for money with everything but drinks included. Will absolutely be visiting again when we return.
