Pamukkale Day Tour from Istanbul by Plane

You will fly to Denizli and transfer to Pamukkale town to join the group. After you joined group, you will visit the Hierapolis which is one of the biggest ancient cemeteries in Anatolia with 1.200 graves, Roman Bath, Domitian Gate, and the Main Street, Byzantium Gate. Then, you walk to the natural warm water terraces which were formed by running warm water that contains calcium. The temperature of the water is about 35. You can see the gleaming white travertine terraces of Pamukkale, located next to the ruins of Hierapolis. The extraordinary effect is created when water from the hot springs loses carbon dioxide as it flows down the slopes, leaving deposits of limestone. The layers of white calcium carbonate, built up in steps on the plateau, gave the site the name Pamukkale (cotton castle). If you like to swim in the Ancient Pool (excluded entrance fee for swimming in pool) which is also called Cleopatra s Pool they charge extra entrance fee. The Cleopatra Pool is warmed by hot springs and littered with underwater fragments of ancient marble columns. Also you will find a chance to take photos of the best spots in Pamukkale while walking through the travertine without shoes/slippers and socks. After visited Pamukkale & Hierapolis you will enjoy with the Onyx fabric and Textile shop. The tour will be finished aroun 16:00pm and we will drop back to Denizli airport for flight back to Istanbul. Our Istanbul team will met you at the Istanbul airport and transfer you to your hotel in Istanbul.
