Amazing!!!
We had an absolutely amazing experience on our Pamukkale tour! From start to finish, everything was wonderful. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, making the experience both enjoyable and informative. We learned so much about the history and beauty of Pamukkale, and our guide went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had a memorable day.
The scenery was breathtaking, and having such an excellent guide made the experience even more special. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Pamukkale. A fantastic experience from beginning to end — definitely 5 stars!

So much of beautiful Pamukkale experienced in a day :)
Excellent small group tour! We did not feel rushed and did so much of Pamukkale in a day. Our guide was patient and a great communicator, sharing his experiences growing up in Pamukkale and answering our many questions. One advice if you take this tour is to have a solid breakfast or bring snacks with you, because lunch time tends to be late [3 PM] (because once you leave the travertines / hieropolis area you don't come back).

Above & Beyond
We took a day trip from Istanbul and we’re thrilled with this Tour Agency. They helped coordinate our airport transfers and arranged a hotel for us in addition to executing a wonderful tour to Pamukkale and Hierapolis. While Pamukkale is far from how it appears online, it still feels like you are seeing something rare and unique and I would highly recommend. Thank you Burak & Team, you do a great job at showing your country!
Operator response
We agree that the entrance fee is very expensive and unfortunately there is nothing we can do about it.

Always great !
It was our second time to visit.
From last time we realised few changes. All good
We also visited bath at this time as we wasn’t able to use it last time. Great experience.
I will advise you to buy combo ticket with attraction situated 10 km from Hierapolis. Great antique city ruins with less crowds than Hierapolis. Absolutely worthy to visit!
Operator response
Thank you for your kindly comments. We hope that we can serve you in other regions for the 3rd time. We wish Healthy and happy days.

Must see, but better on your own
The place is must-see - one of the mors pictoresques I have seen in my life, BUT you don't need to do it with a tour and spend lots of money on something you can do on your own. If you stay in Pamukkale, it is just a very short drive by car or by taxi. I think the tracking lovers can even walk up hter - it is very close. Essencially, all in one place - Hierapolis, Calcium terraces with blue water, termal water pool. There're also hot springs off the site, but they are not something that can't be seen at other places of the World. The narrative part of the tour is very generic and can be spaced within 20-25 min. The lunch is OK, but meat selection is poor and a cup of coffee will cost you eur3. Besides, think twice if you really want to spend your valuable travelling time at 2 outlets where you will be taken - one onyx and second fake brands clothes. The choice is yours.
Operator response
hello, thank you for choosing us. First of all, it is not obligatory to enter the stone or textile stores, it is just for information purposes. You can enter and shop if you want. If you want, you can visit Pamukkale by yourself, we only introduce and inform you about all the regions with a guide and a vehicle. You can join our special tours and do it the way you want without visiting any store. Please do not make misleading comments. Have a nice day

Must see, but better on your own
The place is magnificient, but you don't really need to spend lots of money on tour if you stay in Pamukkale. It is basically just one venue, very close to the tpwn - you can reach by taxi or by car if you have it. The rest is hot springs (also very close, but nothing particular - you cam see the same in many parts of the World) and two merchants outlets - onyx and textile (mostly fake brands). The narrative part of the tour can be spaced within 20-25 min and hardly differs from what you can read in a tourist guide. Give it a thought.
Operator response
You can go to Pamukkale by yourself, but if you want to learn the history and discover a cultural trip, you will need a guide. thanks for your comment

Look around
Lovely knowledgeable guide but very expensive considering what entrance fees were and what we had for lunch. Look around or better still talk to your hotel as ours did free trips to the site

Hello, our tour is calculated as guide, entrance fee, parking, insurance, lunch, vehicle, please don't think of it as just entrance and food. We are currently providing the best quality service in Pamukkale. You will join cheap tours and only see the travertines. have a nice day
