Pamukkale & Hierapolis Tour
A natural masterpiece combines with an ancient one for this excursion. First up is in Pamukkale, which means Cotton Castle.

On arrival, you'll firstly have lunch at the Pam Hotel and hit the thermal pools there before heading to the thermal pools of Pamukkale. The waters have always been thought to bring health benefits, which is why the Romans built the nearby spa town of Hierapolis.
