Family of 3. We had few days in Side but wanted to keep on exploring other parts of the country. The tour sounded really interesting as both of the places were on our bucket list. All transfers were convenient and the car was comfortable. The lake is a feast for the eyes, it’s beautiful! Exactly as in the pictures. Pamukkale is also an amazing place to visit. Many things to see. Good thing is that we had a guide so we got many information. We didn’t swam into the thermal pool because of the baby but it’s a nice experience if you can do it.
I give my best review to the tour. Just came back at the hotel and feeling so good for participating. I liked a lot everything about it. Salda is very cool. We had some time there and we even enter inside. Swimming is very nice there. We also swim in the antique pool in Pamukkale. I also liked the tour in the ancient city. It’s the perfect tour if you wanna take photos. There are many things. Seriously was one of the best things I did during my stay in Side. Everything great, thank you all.
I always wanted to visit Pamukkale and googled a day tour from Side Turkey. I ws so lucky to find this tour as it has no shopping stops and also had the changce to visit salda lake on the same day. Pamukkale is an amazing place, definitly put it on your must visit list.
