Full description

Explore two of Turkey’s most breathtaking natural landmarks in one day! Visit the white travertines of Pamukkale and the turquoise waters of Salda Lake on a guided day tour from Antalya.

Get ready for a full day of scenic beauty, history, and unforgettable memories with this Pamukkale and Salda Lake tour from Antalya. This tour combines two iconic destinations — the surreal white landscapes of Pamukkale and the tropical vibes of Salda Lake, often called the “Turkish Maldives.”

Your journey begins early in the morning with a hotel pickup in Antalya. Sit back and enjoy the scenic drive through the Turkish countryside as your guide shares fascinating stories about the region.

First stop: Salda Lake, with its white sandy shores and clear turquoise waters. You’ll have time for photos, a short walk along the beach, or even a quick dip in the mineral-rich water.

Then head to Pamukkale, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its dazzling white terraces formed by thermal waters. Walk barefoot across the travertines, learn about the natural formation process, and soak in the views.

Next, explore the ancient city of Hierapolis, where you’ll see Roman baths, ruins, and one of the best-preserved amphitheaters in Turkey. You’ll also have the option to swim in the Cleopatra Pool, a thermal spring filled with ancient marble columns.

After a delicious lunch at a local restaurant, relax as you return to Antalya in the evening, filled with beautiful memories of nature and history.

See two unforgettable destinations in one day!
