Day Trip Details
Would you like to visit one of the most special places in Turkey and enjoy an unforgettable experience? If so, this day trip to Pamukkale with a hot air balloon ride is for you!
First thing in the morning, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Marmaris and travel north for 3 hours until we get to Pamukkale. Along the way, you'll be able to rest on the bus until we get to the hot air balloon take-off area.
As we watch the colourful fabrics of the balloons swell with hot air, we'll enjoy a delicious picnic breakfast to refuel. When everything is good to go, we'll hop into the basket and take off to enjoy a unique sunrise. The first rays of sun will accompany us as we reach new heights and enjoy the beautiful landscapes of Pamukkale. We'll fly over a World Heritage Site!
During our 35-minute flight, we'll see the famous cotton castle, the terraces of hot springs, and of course, the ruins of the ancient city of Hierapolis from the sky.
Once we get back on solid ground, we'll make a toast with champagne and give you a flight certificate.
Around 9 am, we'll head to Hierapolis to take a guided tour of this archaeological site, where we'll reveal the great secrets of this ancient Hellenistic city. During the tour, we'll pass by its necropolis, the Temple of Apollo, the Roman Theatre and Cleopatra's pool.
Of course, we'll also go to Pamukkale to get a close-up view of the cotton castle, a set of limestone terraces contrasting with its turquoise waters. You'll be amazed!
To round off the day, we'll finally head to a restaurant for a delicious buffet lunch. After eating, we'll start our return journey to Marmaris.
Finally, we'll end this comprehensive tour at your hotel after a total of 14 hours.
