| Attraction Description / Itinerary | : | Join us for an unforgettable journey to one of Turkey’s most iconic natural wonders on the Pamukkale and Hierapolis Day Trip from Bodrum. This full-day excursion combines breathtaking landscapes, fascinating history, and relaxing thermal waters—making it one of the most rewarding tours you can experience during your Bodrum holiday.
Your day begins with a comfortable drive through the scenic countryside of southwest Turkey. After a breakfast break along the way, we continue toward Pamukkale, also known as the “Cotton Castle,” a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its dazzling white terraces. These unique formations are created by the calcium-rich thermal waters that have flowed down the mountain for thousands of years, creating natural pools and snow-white travertines.
Upon arrival, you’ll have plenty of free time to walk barefoot on the warm, mineral-rich terraces, admire the surreal landscape, and take stunning photos. You can also enjoy the thermal waters that are believed to have healing properties, making this a relaxing and rejuvenating experience.
Right next to Pamukkale lies the ancient city of Hierapolis, an impressive archaeological site founded over 2,000 years ago. Here you can explore the grand Roman theatre, ancient city walls, necropolis, temples, and early Christian monuments. You may also visit the famous Cleopatra’s Pool—a warm, spring-fed pool filled with submerged Roman columns—where you can swim for an additional fee.
After exploring the area, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant. During the return journey, you will also have the chance to learn about local craftsmanship with an optional stop at an authentic onyx or textile workshop.
This full-day adventure combines natural beauty, ancient history, relaxation, and cultural discovery. Whether you're interested in photography, archaeology, or simply experiencing one of Turkey’s most impressive landmarks, the Pamukkale and Hierapolis Day Trip from Bodrum promises a memorable day filled with unforgettable sights and enriching experiences.
