Picked up from our Hotel in Olu Deniz 6 am.. we were so lucky to have booked with Seaside tourism, we had our guide for the day Yalcin Ergun (curly) He was so funny and such a great guy, so full of Knowledge with a sense of humor what a pleasant guy. me and my husband loved him. He made it memorable, our long trip.
Breakfast stop, hour half into the journey and it was very good food, our guide made the journey go quickly with all his information and knowledge very interesting. Then another hour and half we arrived to Pamuk kale and we paid extra to do the pools, which was worth doing, you have a locker included with the price. we stayed there 40 min, which was plenty of time for us, it was very busy and then we went on calcium pools, under feet it is quite slippery, no body is allowed to wear any kind of footwear barefoot, once you passed the one pool it got easier and plenty of opportunity, for photos and to smear some mud on your skin. we stayed a while and then we went around the ruins and various museum with our tour guide, we had the option to go our own way, or meet back up with him, which mostly all of our tour did. He had so much information on the history of the ruins and very knowledgeable. Credit to the company.
We had around 4 hours there altogether and then we back on the bus and then we stopped at the opal factory which was very interesting with many beautiful crafts and gifts from the calcium pools. we purchased to goblets about £20 euros each great souvenir well worth it. then we stopped for our late lunch and this was very good too the food buffet style which was included in the price of the trip. Then on to our journey back to our hotel, yalcin did a raffle for the tour with 3 prizes and made it fun, we didn't win, there was some lovely gifts from the opal factory. got back at 8pm
well worth the journey and day trip many thanks to sea side tourism oludeniz Highly recommend fab day out.
