    Dose the tour start in Istanbul or Izmir?

    Tour Details

      This tour starts in Istanbul with an early morning flight to Izmir. We will pick you up from your hotel in Istanbul early in the morning and transfer you to the airport for your Izmir flight.
      You may add the domestic flights through the optional add-ons section if you wish us to arrange them for you.

      Is this still accurate?

      ****The Cleopatra Pool in Pamukkale is currently closed for maintenance. Unfortunately, the local municipality has not yet announced a specific reopening date, and we are still waiting for an official update

      ****Tünektepe Cable Car (Antalya):

      The Tünektepe Cable Car in Antalya is also closed due to renovatio (because of the accidient ). As an alternative, you may choose to join a 1-hour boat tour in Antalya, kindly ask your guide

    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperatorWritten January 2026

      Yes, unfortunately both attractions are still closed. The Ancient Pool (Cleopatra Pool) is expected to reopen around May 2026, but there is no confirmed date yet. The Tünektepe Cable Car is still under construction, and there is currently no update regarding its reopening.

      Anne

      TravelerWritten January 2026

      Ok shouldn't the tour be changed? I think paying for something and able to do is misleading don't you think?

    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperatorWritten January 2026

      The Ancient Pool (Cleopatra Pool) is not a main sightseeing point of the tour. The main highlights in Pamukkale are Hierapolis and the Ancient Theatre, and these will be visited as planned. As stated in the itinerary, entrance tickets are extra and not included in the package. The Ancient Pool is an optional experience, available only for guests who wish to try it.
      Regarding the Tünektepe Cable Car (Antalya), it is currently closed due to renovation following an accident, based on a municipality decision, which is beyond our control.
      As an alternative in Antalya, you may choose to join a 1-hour boat tour.

      TravelerWritten October 2025

      I want to know the rate for the child.

    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperatorWritten October 2025

      The child price is 549 USD for children aged between 1–7 years old. If he/she is older than 7, the adult rate will apply.

    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperatorWritten October 2025

      You will have a flight from Istanbul to Izmir at the beginning and from cappadocia to Istanbul at the ending of the tour. It takes around 3–3.5 hours from Pamukkale to Antalya, 3.5-4 hours from Antalya to Konya, and about 3.5 - 4 hours from Konya to Cappadocia. However, we also have the option to skip the Konya part and arrange a direct flight from Antalya to Cappadocia, since in Konya you would only visit the Mevlana Museum before continuing to Cappadocia.

    Tracy

    Asked on August 7th, 2025

    Can I take this tour if my flight will arrive IST airport on October 2 at 5:10am, then my flight will leave IST on October 7 at 1:40am?

    Flights / Transfers
    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperatorWritten August 2025

      Unfortunately, it will not be possible as planned. Your flight to Izmir is scheduled for 7:00 AM from SAW Airport in Istanbul, but you will be arriving at IST Airport, and it won't be possible to catch that early domestic flight upon your arrival. If you are able to arrive on 01st October and stay overnight at a hotel in Istanbul, we can arrange a transfer from your hotel to the airport for your morning flight on 02nd October. Additionally, your departure flight should be on 08th October, as your current return flight is very late in the evening on 07th October, which may not work smoothly with the tour schedule. In short, to ensure a smooth experience, you would need to arrive one day earlier and depart one day later than originally planned.
