Pamukkale & Hierapolis
Experience the stunning natural beauty and ancient history of Pamukkale and Hierapolis on this unforgettable daily tour from Izmir.
We begin by visiting the famous white travertine terraces of Pamukkale — a breathtaking landscape of mineral-rich pools formed by thermal waters flowing down the mountainside over thousands of years. You will have the opportunity to walk along the terraces, admire the spectacular views, and even take a dip in the soothing thermal waters.
Next, we explore the ancient city of Hierapolis, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Strolling through its ancient streets, you will visit the impressive Roman Theater, the Temple of Apollo, the Plutonium, and the extensive necropolis.
You will also have the option to swim in the famous Antique Pool (Cleopatra’s Pool), where submerged Roman columns create a magical and unique underwater experience.
Throughout the day, your professional guide will provide fascinating insights into the history, culture, and geology of this extraordinary region.
At the end of the tour, transfer back to your hotel or Izmir Airport.
