Itinerary

Day 1

Upon your arrival at Denizli Cardak Airport, you will be greeted and transferred to your hotel in Pamukkale. After check-in, the rest of the day is yours to relax or explore the beautiful surroundings of this natural wonder. Take the opportunity to walk around the charming town or enjoy a traditional Turkish meal. Overnight in Pamukkale.

Day 2

(Breakfast included)

After a delicious Turkish breakfast at the hotel, we’ll begin our full-day guided tour of Pamukkale and Laodicea. First, you’ll explore the world-famous white travertine terraces of Pamukkale, also known as the “Cotton Castle,” and learn about their natural formation from mineral-rich thermal waters. You’ll also visit the ancient city of Hierapolis, where you’ll see ruins of temples, Roman baths, and the Antique Pool (Cleopatra’s Pool) — a unique place to relax in thermal waters surrounded by submerged columns.

Following lunch, we’ll head to Laodicea, one of the Seven Churches of Revelation. This biblical city holds incredible historical significance, with highlights such as the ancient theatre, agora, and one of the oldest known Christian churches in the region. After the tour, return to your hotel for a restful night. Overnight in Pamukkale.

Day 3

(Breakfast and lunch included)

After breakfast, you’ll be picked up from your hotel and taken to a local venue where a professional Turkish chef will lead your hands-on cooking class. You’ll prepare and taste authentic regional dishes such as Keşkek (a savory wheat stew), Sarma (stuffed vine leaves), and Patlıcan Kapama (braised eggplant). This interactive experience is perfect for food lovers who want to connect with Turkish culture through its rich cuisine.

After lunch, enjoy free time in the city center of Pamukkale or nearby Denizli for shopping and exploring local markets, where you can find handmade textiles, spices, and souvenirs. Transfer back to your hotel for your final night. Overnight in Pamukkale.
