Amazing experience in Hierapolis

5.00We had a great time during a private tour to Hierapolis and even had a little left over time to visit the House of Virgin Mary on the way back. Our tour guide Gamze was friendly and even took me to Starbucks because it was on my list to try all the Starbucks in the world.
Great trip

5.00Great visit to Pamukkale with Cemal (Gem). Pide for lunch was tasty. The Pamukkale ruins were amazing and we loved the theater of Apollo. Walking through the travertine terraces was otherworldly. Combo of palm trees and snow capped mountains in the distance was so special. Such a great day.
Thank you Erdem!

5.00We had a wonderful day trip to Pamukkale from the Kusadasi port. Pamukkale was on our family bucket list for many years and we were so excited that Erdem made this dream a reality. Erdem our guide was always in communication with us many weeks before our booking and assured us that we would be able to fit in all sights and make it back to the ship in time. He also took care of lunch accommodations and our older son especially loved the Turkish pizza. It was such a memorable and once in a lifetime experience for family. Thank you Erdem for a wonderful time and explaining all the facts and historical information in such detail. We definitely recommend Erdem and his team for any day excursions from Kuşadası port.
