Step back in time with a relaxing daily excursion that takes you straight to the heart of Ottoman‑era wellness. From your hotel in Eskisehir, our English‑speaking guide will whisk you away to a historic hamam where the ancient Roman bathing tradition lives on in Turkish form. The day tour is designed for complete relaxation, offering a seamless blend of cultural immersion and soothing spa rituals.
The hamam you will visit is a living museum of the bathing customs that flourished during the Roman period and were later refined by the Ottomans. Its three distinct sections—cold (soğuk), warm (ılık) and hot (sıcak)—mirror the classic Roman thermae, allowing visitors to progress through a therapeutic temperature journey that promotes circulation, detoxification and deep relaxation. The ritual concludes with a vigorous exfoliation known as “kese” performed by the hamam’s skilled staff, who use traditional loofahs and natural soaps to leave the skin silky smooth.
Beyond the physical benefits, the Turkish bath is a social hub where locals gather to converse, share stories and enjoy a moment of communal tranquility. By joining this daily tour, you not only indulge in a pampering experience but also gain a rare glimpse into a cultural practice that has been an integral part of Turkish life for millennia. The tour is suitable for all ages and fitness levels, making it an ideal addition to any Eskisehir itinerary.
Practical notes: the tour runs for approximately five hours, including hotel transfers. Comfortable clothing and a swimsuit are recommended; towels are provided by the hamam. The experience is gender‑segregated, with separate areas for men and women, each staffed by experienced tellak or natır. No meals are included, so you may wish to bring a light snack or enjoy a meal before or after the visit.

Traditional Turkish Bath Experience
Your guide will meet you at your hotel in the morning and escort you to a historic Turkish bath in the centre of Eskisehir. Upon arrival you will be welcomed by the hamam’s staff who will guide you through the three‑stage bathing ritual that mirrors the Roman thermae: first a refreshing dip in the cold chamber to close the pores, then a gentle warm room to relax the muscles, and finally the hot steam room where the heat opens the skin and promotes deep cleansing. After acclimating to each temperature, you will receive a traditional "kese" scrub performed by a natır (for women) or tellak (for men). Using a coarse loofah and natural soap, the staff will expertly exfoliate dead skin cells, leaving you feeling renewed and invigorated. Throughout the session, your guide will share stories about the hamam’s origins dating back to the Roman Empire, its evolution under Ottoman rule, and its role in contemporary Turkish society as a place of social interaction and wellness. The experience concludes with a brief period of relaxation in the cooling area, where you can enjoy a cup of herbal tea if you wish. After the ritual, you will be escorted back to your hotel, refreshed and ready to continue your adventures in Eskisehir.

My husband and I chose Inca Tour for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did. The boutique hotel selection was beautiful and the Bosphorus dinner cruise was so romantic. Thank you for making our trip special!
It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
10+ years later we still talk about our Cappadocia balloon ride and the Bosphorus sunset cruise. Some memories are timeless. Thank you Inca Tour!
