Here you can bath in the same waters in which Cleopatra once swam! A professionally run modern spa facility allows you to enjoy these historical healing waters. Unlike the white water of the lower pools the Antique Pool favored by Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt, is pure clear warm water. Once it was surmounted by a Roman Temple to Apollo with an ornate roof held up with Doric columns. Imagine how Cleopatra must have experienced this when you imagine it in its glory day.

We set up a 2 day tour, first one to Pammukale/Hierapolis and the next day Ephesus, the house of Virgin Mary and Temple of Artemis. Harun picked us up at the port of Kusadasi on time, both days with a new big van. My husband has some mobility issues and I talked to Harun before hand about my concerns and he set up the tours in a way to avoid the bigger crowds. Harum is very knowledgeable about history, archaeology, religion and tied everything in a way that kept my teenagers attention. In Pammukale my daughter saw some paragliders and Harum contacted the company and set up for me and my daughter, we had memorable photos and videos of our adventure. This was completely out of the schedule, but he wanted to make sure we had the best time in Pammukale. Lunch was included in the tour and it was delicious!! I’m still dreaming about the tahini, walnut & honey pide!! The place was small, not a touristy spot, but one where locals eat and I’m glad that we got to experience such good food. Next day he picked us up again at the port for our Ephesus, house of Virgin Mary, Temple of Artemis and a mosque. Again, we learned so much history from him, my kids learned more about the Greek, Roman & Byzantine empires from him than school. Again, no rush, we took our time to see, to pray, to learn and took time to enjoy the beauty of each of the sites. Lunch was delicious again, time to learn about the art of Turkish carpet, got some treats as well. In short, our time in Turkey felt short, there’s so much to see and we need to go back again and definitely will use Castle Tours. Harum was such an honor to meet you!
We had such a great time with Castle Travel on our Pamukkale and Hierapolis tour. We came to Selcuk just for this! Aron, who organized everything for us, was super easy to communicate with on WhatsApp, which made the whole booking process a breeze. The tour was well-organized, and the pickup from our hotel was so convenient—made everything so much easier! Definitely worth it to have all the details handled for you. Pamukkale itself is once in a lifetime—the pools are absolutely breathtaking. Our guide, Yetkim, was awesome—super knowledgeable and really passionate about the history of the sites. We had plenty of time to explore Pamukkale and Hierapolis at our own pace without feeling rushed. And Umut, our driver, made sure we were comfortable throughout the whole day. The buffet lunch was a nice break. The main course was okay, but the desserts were fantastic, and the drinks, although not included, were reasonably priced. Overall, don’t sleep on this tour! It was amazing, and Castle Travel made it a stress-free, memorable day. Highly recommend!
We had two beautiful days woth our guide yesra who is very informarive. First day ephesus and than pamukkale. The agency always took care of us during the tour. Thank you very mich castke travel
Yesra guided us for three different private day tours out of Kusadasi - including Ephesus, Aphrodisias, Pamukkale, Prienne, Miletus, and Didyma - many locations, and yet Yesra and was very knowledgeable at each different location. Yesra has good English, was very friendly, and also adjusted the itinerary to suit our preferences on each day. We enjoyed our tours and time with Yesra and recommend that book your guided tour with Yesra!
Would highly recommend Castle. Communication before the day was excellent. On the day they arrived promptly and contacted us on arrival. Our guide spoke fluent English and was very knowledgeable about the places we visited, adding to the whole experience. Lunch was at a local Turkish restaurant and was very good. Pacing of the day was very much down to what we wanted, and plenty of stops during the whole day if needed. Cost included transport, driver, guide, lunch and entrance tickets. Would not hesitate to recommend.
A very hot day but our guide gave us the best advice. An excellent place for lunch. And then to visit the hot springs in pamukkale. We took a vehicle inside to tour the ancient city which was amazing!! Our guide accompanied us and took some excellent photos. Super recommended!!!
It was as amazing trip with Ahmet, a very kind and professional guide who doesn’t fear any improvisation. A perfect day full of archeological sites, nature beauties and swimming in the so called Cleopatra’ s pool.
