Things to do in Hierapolis

We had a great experience on the day tour. The service was punctual and well coordinated, and our guide was friendly, informative, and always happy to help. The lunch was also delicious and well arranged. The entire day went smoothly, with excellent support from start to finish. Definitely recommend!

Initially, the process of transferring from a small 15-seater bus to a larger one was a bit confusing, but afterward, our guide provided excellent explanations, and the journey on the spacious large bus was comfortable. It took 3 hours to get from Antalya to Hierapolis, and we had plenty of restroom breaks and even visited an onyx factory (no forced shopping). The weather was a bit cloudy, which made sightseeing at Hierapolis quite pleasant. For those planning to dip their feet in Pamukkale, remember to bring a towel, and since you'll be outside for about 3 and a half hours, I recommend bringing water. We spent about an hour exploring a portion of the site with the guide, followed by an hour and a half of free time. After that, those who wished to went up to the Hierapolis theater on the hill with the guide. The lunch buffet afterward was also good.

Our guide Lisa was great! The drive is long from Kusadasi but worth it, and we had some stops for coffee, snacks and the restroom. We had enough time to see everything we wanted.

This hot air balloon and Pamukkale tour with Melo was truly fantastic. On the way to ride the hot air balloon, I had a lot of luggage because I was with my 6-year-old child, so I couldn't pack everything I needed. She kindly lent me her blanket to keep my daughter warm, and I am so grateful for that. She kindly guided all of us during the transfers and helped us rest comfortably in a clean place. At Hierapolis, her explanations were very professional and easy to understand, and thanks to her wonderful wit and leadership, we were able to tour the site comfortably. The meals were very neat and delicious. Considering that all of this is included at this price, this is definitely an amazing tour. The trip back to Antalya was also very comfortable. I thank her and highly recommend her tour.

My only complaint with this tour are the 3 stopovers on our way to Pamukkale. For every stopover, we were given 30mins and even longer at the Onyx (for demonstration/sales) shop. The time spent on these place should be lessened as the allotted 3 hrs is not sufficient to enjoy Pamukkale, the Ancient city and Cleopatra's bath. On our way back to Antalya, there was only one stopover, which is a testament to the fact that the tour participants don't need too many stopovers Imagine the travel time from Antalya to the site was 6.5hrs including pickup and stopovers while our travel time from the site to our hotel was only 3.5hrs with stopover.

Wonderful guide! The experience was amazing, and the guide was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Everything was well organized, and we truly enjoyed every moment. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a great experience!
