Itinerary

  • Starting Points: Turkey/Denizli or Pamukkale
  • Route 1 Hierapolis Ancient City

    City of Hierapolis, also known as the 'Holy City', we will see more than 1200 tombs and the sarcophagi of those who wish, and the Necropolis just outside the main entrance. Among the tombs is the Martyrium, an octagonal 5th-century structure believed to have been erected on the site of St. Philip's martyrdom in 80 AD. We can also say the Hierapolis City Bath or the hot springs of Hierapolis, which was especially popular with vacationing Romans. The City bath had a shiny marble interior and is now converted into an Archaeological Museum. You will notice that the entire seating area is there. It had a capacity of 25,000 people, and we're sure you'll be amazed that the various ornately carved decorative elements that adorned the 3rd century AD are still intact. During today's tour, you'll have a free hour to relax and admire the scenery, and of course have a drink from the on-site cafeteria. 

  • Route 2 Pamukkale Travertines

    Pamukkale (cotton castle) white calcium rocks. As the name suggests, Pamukkale is famous for its cotton-white thermal pools and magnificent scenery. The white calcium cliffs and turquoise blue pools are definitely worth seeing and photographing as souvenirs. We're sure you've never seen anything like this before. Imagine floating in hot, bubbling champagne between sunken marble pillars and carved stones. Behind you is a dazzling cotton landscape of vast cliffs and terraces. We are sure that you will not be surprised that Pamukkale-Hierapolis is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List with such a unique combination of natural and man-made wonders.

  • Route 3 Cleopatra Pool

    How many other places in the world have 23 centuries of history where you can swim? The area, also known as the Cleopatra Pool, located in the Hierapolis Ancient City and protected by UNESCO, is located just above the Pamukkale Travertines. Allegedly, even the Egyptian Queen Cleopatra heard the praise of this pool. Since the pool is fed with thermal waters, its temperature is set to exactly 36 degrees in summer and winter, which is optimal for body temperature. Therefore, you can enjoy the pool in the winter months too!
