Your journey begins with a visit to the stunning white travertine terraces of Pamukkale, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its unique natural formations and healing thermal waters. Walk barefoot on the calcium-rich terraces, enjoy the warm mineral pools, and explore the ancient city of Hierapolis, where you'll discover well-preserved ruins including the Roman theatre, necropolis, and the historic Cleopatra’s Pool.

After immersing yourself in the rich history and soothing waters of Pamukkale, the tour continues to the serene beauty of Salda Lake. Often called the "Turkish Maldives" due to its white shores and vibrant turquoise waters, Salda offers the perfect setting for relaxation and stunning photographs surrounded by unspoiled nature.
