Fundamentalism and fundamentalist have always meant as a threat to the story of man. The site of mother Mary house is a symbolic appreciation of cultural valuesWritten 30 July 2024
- nbassist0 contributionsMy favourite in TurkiyeAnother vacation in Turkiye and more trips with Metin Tour. Two years ago I visited Cappadocia and this year we explored the beautiful Tazi Canyon and enjoyed a local tour. A wide selection of tours and activities, excellent organization and a great atmosphere during the trips. Highly recommend!Written 23 July 2024

- Pascalina12340 contributionsDive into historyWe loved the tour. We enjoyed the crystal and clear water of Kekova island , the boat stopped to swim in the water , Saint Nicholas church dated from the 6th century , a lot of informations given from tour guide Hassan about Saint Nicholas , The interesting ancient Myra city . So if you love history and same time swimming , I recommend you to do this tour .Written 13 July 2024
- Terri L0 contributionsA lovely way to see this beautiful part of Turkey.Very organised tour with friendly and helpful staff. We went to some beautiful swimming spots. The boat itself was very comfortable with plenty of shade.Written 11 July 2024
- corinaelsom0 contributionsSunset boat tripAmazing sunset boat trip swimming in the ocean, evening meal on board amazing sites on the boat for about 4.5 hours drinks on board payable at the end by cash or card very cheap.Written 17 June 2024
- 877melisap0 contributionsWorth a visit as much more for your money then advertised!Easy to organise transfer to and from boat, boat was comfy could have done with more shaded areas of seating on top of the boat as unfortunately a family of 4 had taken up 4 sunbeds/cushions and about 6 seats in the shade which meant other people were forced to sit in the sun, we stopped at a lot more bays then mentioned which was great, it was extremely hot (heat wave about 20c warmer then meant to be) so didn’t explore either of the places that was actually mentioned in the tour. Also recommend researching about butterfly valley as when we arrived, people from other tours who were coming away from the butterfly area were saying going in wasn’t worth it because it isn’t butterfly season.Written 16 June 2024
- jasper t0 contributionsPammukale and Cleopatra PoolsLong tour Pammukale is the most featured so spend more time coz you only got 3 hours. Cleopatra Pools was disappointment knowing Roman Bath is renowned for its clean aqueducts but too many slimmy moss floating clear warm water and such a small pool so too cramp with tourist.Written 15 June 2024

The sights of Pamukkale are incredible, but they should be better preserved from us tourists. The place was overcrowded and some of the areas were dry. Cleopatra pools had so many people, it was quite impossible to enjoy them properly. There’s also an extra charge to enter the pools. 5 starts to the guide, Ali, he was knowledgeable and attentive. Transfer from and to the hotel were well-planned and on time.

I don't usually post reviews but this was the most awful excursion I've ever had.
12hours of transport for less than 2 hours at pamukkale.
I strongly recommend to avoid this excursion because the stopped 4 times to make us buy different type of stuff (we had a leather jackets défilé for 1h????)
The food buffet was really poor and the pause stations were super expensive.
Arriving at pamukkale, our guide literally ran and gave us 0 information about the site nor the indications to get around. Our guide literally disappeared mid visit to show up late at the bus for departure. Our visit lasted less than 2hours (12:00 to 14:00 on bus) and we didn't have enough time to discover this wonderful site.
If you want to enjoy pamukkale, I think the best you can do is to book a hotel and stay the night / come to visit early in the morning for a cooler weather and less crowds,especially if you want to enjoy cleoparta's pool.

Swimming in Cleopatra’s Pools, walking around the travertine terraces and immersing ourselves in the history of the Roman ruins. It was a really great day.
It is a long trip there and back from
Bodrum, but well worth it.
I would have preferred not to have the two shopping shops as it added time to a long day, but I understand why it’s done and there’s no pressure to buy anything!

The bus had mechanical problems. The guide didn't explain anything on site, he just hot us there and told us to explore for ourselves. The food was mediocre.
That being said, the archeological site is magnificent, I just would recommend going alone or with another tour company.

a place must go when you are in Pamukkale..get to see the old hierapolis city especially the theater and cleopatra pool. The Hot spring terrace really beautiful, but only got the chance to experience the upper part only and too many people..

Worth spending time travelling from Bodrum. It was stunning and amazing. Tour guide was knowledgeable but should have given us more history about the place. We stopped for lunch which was buffet and splendid.

Hi arrive in Bodrum 21st May - 4 June. We will be staying at Lakeside Gardens in Bogazici, can you pick from here? We are interested in Pamukkale trip and a boat trip. We are a family of 4. Three of us have turkish ID if that creates a discount for entrance fees. Tessekur ederim 😊. Jill Karadeniz.
