You'll spend about an hour in a hot air balloon over the white travertine terraces, valleys and ruins at Pamukkale, then enjoy free time on the ground at the travertines, Cleopatra's Pool and Hierapolis. We collect you from Antalya hotels for this 13-hour day, because Pamukkale lies in the Aegean hinterland inland of the Antalya strip. The itinerary names the drive back to the hotel after the flight and site time. Meals are not included, so pack water and a snack for the long road. Wear layers for a cool morning basket and closed shoes for the terraces after landing.
We collect you from Antalya, often very early because of the morning flight window, then drive inland to Pamukkale. The balloon flight itself lasts about one hour over the white terraces in morning light. Exact track and landing field are pilot decisions against the wind. After landing, free time lets you walk the travertines, use Cleopatra's Pool, and walk Hierapolis, the old Roman spa city. That ground time is unguided rather than a minute-by-minute museum tour. Some rates include site entrance and some do not; we'll confirm that with your booking details, so do not assume the pool is included.
Wear layers for a cool morning basket and closed shoes for wet calcium terraces and uneven ruins after landing. A sun hat helps during free time at Pamukkale and Hierapolis.

You should be happy standing in a basket for the hour aloft and walking uneven ground afterwards.
