🎈 Soar Above a Natural Wonder – Experience Pamukkale from the Sky!
Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime day trip from Side that combines the breathtaking beauty of Pamukkale with the thrill of a hot air balloon ride at sunrise. This full-day tour is a perfect blend of aerial adventure, natural wonder, and cultural exploration.
🕛 Midnight Departure & Balloon Ride at Dawn
We start our journey with night pickups from
- Titreyengöl (00:10)
Side (00:30)
Kumköy (00:40)
Evrenseki (00:45)
Gündoğdu (00:50)
After a light breakfast stop on the way, we arrive in Pamukkale just in time to begin the hot air balloon ride. As the sun rises, float above the white terraces of Pamukkale, the ancient city of Hierapolis, and the turquoise thermal pools, capturing a panoramic view you’ll never forget.
💎 Cultural Visits & Local Flavors
Following the balloon experience, we visit a local Onyx and Sultanit stone workshop, where you’ll learn about the regional gemstones and have a chance to browse handmade jewelry. Next, we tour a traditional Turkish wine cellar, where you can sample and shop for locally crafted wines.
🍽️ After these cultural stops, we enjoy a relaxing lunch at a local restaurant before continuing our exploration of Pamukkale.
🌿 Explore the Terraces & Cleopatra’s Ancient Pool
Next, stroll through the legendary Pamukkale Travertines, formed over millennia by thermal waters rich in calcium. Capture dreamy photos, walk barefoot on the terraces, and feel the healing energy of this UNESCO-listed site.
You’ll also have the option to enter the Cleopatra Pool (extra fee), an ancient thermal bath where you can swim among submerged Roman columns—believed to be beneficial for the skin and body.
🍽️ Dinner & Return
After your visit, we enjoy a delicious dinner before heading back to Side. Return transfers take place in the evening, bringing you back to your hotel with incredible memories, stunning photos, and the peaceful joy of flying.
