It takes about 3 hours by bus to reach Pamukkale on your Marmaris to Pamukkale excursion as the distance between Marmaris and Pamukkale is 220 kilometers.
During the excursion from Marmaris to Pamukkale you will see the white travertines of Pamukkale, Cleopatra’s Pool and the ancient city of Hierapolis.
Your hotel pickup, guide service, breakfast and lunch then subsequent return to your Marmaris hotel or apartment.
Extras are anything you choose to drink, entry onto the travertines and an optional extra is to swim in Cleopatra’s Pool.
Good walking shoes are the order of the day. Your sunglasses and sun cream of course. Some money for extra expenditure and a towel. Your camera if you are keen on photographing beautiful scenery.
Unfortunately it may not. Anyone with mobility difficulties would be unable to negotiate the travertines. The journey lasts around 3 hours and for families with very young children this should be considered before booking. The surfaces of the ancient city are easier to walk along, but for anyone with a health impediment, the climb could be too much.
Firstly the ascent from the lake up to the travertines offers amazing views of the far distant countryside. The waters of the rock pools are there for you to cool yourself down and even swim where they are deep enough. The chalk like minerals are beneficial to the skin as well!
If you love history and are even the slightest bit religious the story of St Philip and his burial in Hierapolis is fascinating. It is even said that the gateway to hell was found in the city. An ancient sacrificial site was discovered where birds were sacrificed to the gods. The poisonous fumes from this underground source being responsible for their immediate demise.
With Ephesus as its larger sister city, Hierapolis is often overlooked. Having no less a history and with its fascinating location above the travertines, it is equally worth a visit, as you walk in the footsteps of the apostles and ancient queens, history comes alive beneath your feet.
