Overview

Highlights of:  8-Day Cappadocia, Ephesus, Pamukkale and Antalya Tour

Pamukkale, Ephesus, Cappadocia, Antalya


Pamukkale, which means "Cotton Castle" in Turkish, is a stunning natural site known for its white, terrace-like formations created by calcium deposits. Fed by 17 hot springs, the travertines have been a health retreat for centuries. On top of Pamukkale lies the ancient city of Hierapolis, once home to Greek and Roman civilizations. While visiting, you can explore the travertines, dip in Cleopatra's Pool, or check out landmarks like the Amphitheater, the Necropolis, and the Temple of Apollo.

Ephesus, nestled in Turkey's Aegean region, is an ancient city with roots dating back to the 10th century BC. It was a major center in Greek and Roman times and is also mentioned as one of the Seven Churches of Revelation. Don't miss iconic sites like the Library of Celsus, the Gate of Augustus, the Basilica of St. John, and the Temple of Artemis—a former Wonder of the Ancient World.

In central Turkey, Cappadocia feels like something from a storybook with its otherworldly landscapes and rich history. It is also referenced in ancient Christian texts and is well-known for its Fairy Chimneys, fascinating underground cities, and moonlike landscapes. In Cappadocia, natural wonders and historical mysteries come together to welcome travelers.
