Traveller reviews
Hierapolis surprised me. I booked for the travertines but enjoyed the ancient city almost as much.
Pamukkale was one of those places that actually looked as strange and beautiful as the photos. Walking barefoot on the white terraces was hot in places, so listen to the guide's advice about where to step. Salda Lake gave the day a different kind of scenery before the main stop. It is a long tour, but it felt worth it.
Long bus day and basic meals, but the sights were unique enough to justify it.
I wish there was more time at Salda, but fitting both places into one day is already a lot.
Cleopatra Pool was busy, but swimming among old columns felt special.
The pickup was very early and the bus day is long, so people should be realistic before booking. That said, the travertines, Hierapolis, and Salda Lake are not sights you can easily replace with something closer. Lunch was basic, but the guide kept the timing organized. I was tired afterward, but glad I went.
