Step into a surreal natural wonder on this Pamukkale day tour from Bodrum, a full-day daily excursion to the gleaming white travertine terraces and the ancient Roman city of Hierapolis. This day trip lets you walk barefoot on the calcite pools of the "Cotton Castle" and explore one of Turkey's most iconic UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Shore Excursion for Cruise Passengers in Bodrum

This Pamukkale Tour also works as a shore excursion from the Bodrum cruise port — a popular choice for passengers who have one day ashore. As a private excursion it is fully flexible — pickup is right at the pier, the pace follows your group, and we make sure you are back on board well before departure. Tell us how many hours your ship stays in port and we will confirm that the full programme fits comfortably. Simply share your cruise itinerary and the date you are in Bodrum, and we will reserve your places.

Day Trip to Bodrum from the Greek Islands (Kos, Kalymnos and Leros)

Guests staying on Kos, Kalymnos or Leros can enjoy the Pamukkale Tour as a day trip from the Greek islands to Turkey — from Kos the ferry takes 30 minutes; from Kalymnos the ferry takes about 1 hour; from Leros the ferry takes about 2 hours, so the excursion can be planned between the morning and evening sailings. Pickup is at the Bodrum ferry terminal, and the tour is timed so you can catch the return ferry comfortably. For longer itineraries we check the ferry timetable first and confirm that the full programme fits your day. Please bring your passport and check the Turkish entry requirements for your nationality before travelling.
