Ephesus and Pamukkale Tour from Marmaris

You’re going on a trip to Pamukkale and Ephesus from Marmaris. Visit the famous ancient city of Ephesus, admire the view of the white travertines, and take dozens or hundreds of wonderful pictures. Not only the famous sights of Turkey await you, but also the magnificent views of the wild places of this largely mysterious country.

The 1st day

Tourists are picked up from hotels and transported in a comfortable air-conditioned bus. Immediately at the outskirts of Marmaris the bus will make a stop for breakfast. Tourists can eat prepared lunch packages or order food for a fee. We recommend having a meal, as the road is interesting but difficult. On the way, we recommend using cameras to capture the beauty of the Denizli province.

Before arriving in Ephesus the bus will make a stop in the nearby Selçuk town for lunch. You will be impressed by the versatility of the city. It used to be a small farming community, and now it’s a tourist pilgrimage.

The next stage of the two-day tour is the excursion to Ephesus. You will spend two hours in the ancient city and have time to explore its main attractions:

–         The House of the Virgin Mary, which is located more than 350 meters above sea level. There is the Wall of Desires next to it.

–         A clock tower on the town square. It was once depicted on Turkish liras.

–         The Temple of Hadrian is one of the main attractions of the ancient city. According to historical reports, the temple was built as far back as the 2nd century A.C.

–         The Gate of Heracles. They are almost completely destroyed, but there are still pillars. They show magnificent bas-relief images of the great son Zeus.

–         The Church of the Virgin. It was erected in the 5th century on the site of the Roman basilica.

After a trip through the old town, you are expected to arrive and check in the hotel. Before dinner (buffet) take a stroll on its territory and enjoy fresh air. Be sure to have a walk along the local streets.

The 2nd day

After a full breakfast you leave the hotel and go to the hot spring «Karahayit». This is an informative and useful excursion. It is said that bathing in the waters here saturates the body with healing components. Tourists will see unusual red travertines.

The next stop is the historic Pamukkale complex, which is considered one of the main attractions of Turkey. Visit the ancient fortress of Hierapolis, the famous calcium terraces and Cleopatra Pool. The last place is especially beautiful. They say that swimming in the pool brings back youth. Not surprisingly, an Egyptian beauty liked to spend a lot of time here.

Then there is a break for lunch. Before the transfer to the hotel you can visit the textile and onyx centers. It is recommended to buy souvenirs from the local masters. You will see first-hand how textile masterpieces and onyx products are created, which are so popular among tourists.
