Ce qui vous attend

This winter tour takes you to Pamukkale, which means 'cotton castle' in Turkish – and you'll soon see why as you set eyes upon this magical landscape. You'll also visit the adjacent ancient city of Hierapolis. Both are UNESCO-listed, so it's a two-in-one deal on Turkey's historical gems. And, like all of our tours, we use expert local guides who know the area inside out. Muzaffer, one of the guides, says, ‘I've got a lot of interesting things to tell on this tour that you won't hear anywhere else.'

A sight to behold, Pamukkale is a series of mountainside terraces where natural springs have solidified into snowy-white stalactites and cliffs. The effect is a winter-like wonderland of petrified tiers and pools. People have bathed here for thousands of years, including Roman emperors. Follow in their footsteps and bathe in one of the thermal pools or simply stand at the top of Pamukkale and drink in the magnificent views.

Then it's on to the ruins of ancient Hierapolis – a theatre, necropolis, temples, baths and much more. After lunch, you'll have free time to head to the archaeological museum or take a dip in Cleopatra's Bath, where you'll swim among ancient columns. And, if you're peckish on the way back, you'll be treated to dinner at a local forest restaurant.

    Je pense qu'il ne faut pas envoyer un groupe en visite quand le temps n'est pas au rendez-vous. Même si cela doit être décalé a un autre jour. Le restaurant du midi avec buffet a volonté près du lieu de Pamukkale n'était pas de qualité. Le prix est extrêmement cher pour une visite de 2h30 sur place même si cela comprend le repas et le transport ainsi que l'entrée sur le site. Nous n'avons même pas pu voir ni même nous baigner au bain de Cléopâtre. Le lieu reste tout de même à faire malgré cela.

    Je tiens à exprimer mon insatisfaction générale concernant cette visite. En effet, contrairement à ce qui était clairement indiqué lors de la réservation, le guide n’était pas francophone, mais anglophone. Nous avons choisi cette excursion précisément parce qu’un accompagnement en français était prévu, condition essentielle pour nous permettre de comprendre et apprécier pleinement les explications historiques et culturelles du site. Sans cela, la visite a perdu tout son intérêt pour nous, car no

    The day was 14 hours long ?? 11 hours travelling and 3 hours at the site, the tour was excellent the ruins were exceptional, our guide was very good, the bad points the breakfast was served in a shed with water buckets hanging from the ceiling, the dinner on our way back was served in the same shed and the food was a joke, lunch was good but every meal time you had to pay for drinks including water ??. Overall for paying £116. this trip was poor and I wouldn’t recommend.

    Lange trip. Dat wel. Jammer dat er geen Nederlandse tolk was maar grotendeels duits. En beetje engels.

    Nine to ten hours on a couch is too much for anyone. I was too exhausted to do anything the next day. Buyers should be warned of this and the condition on the site they are visiting. The old city was impressive, but Pamukkale was rammed with selfie takers and nearly all the pools were empty.
