  • Very soothing thermal pools. Have to be careful with children as there is a chance to slip and trip. Marvellous facility.

  • One of the most spectacular places I've ever seen. It's presence is simply amazing and from all angles. Walking up has to be done on bare feet which is actually very pleasant. The hot springs with the milky turquoise water looks surreal, but my feet were so soft afterwards. Would highly recommend a day trip here and the hot air balloon experience was out of this world!
  • Amazing place ! Easy to drive from Antalya or you can book a tour with the companies. The parking was easy and safe for 15Lira only. I saw the pictures before going but the experience was so much more amazing!! Beautiful white views with blue water, amazing stepping ponds. A bit too crowded mostly in the mid afternoon. its better to go early if you want to get some pictures with less crowd in it. The whole walk up was not too tiring but at some points hard on the foot as you're not allowed to wear shoes on the reserve. Still if you take multiple short breaks, it becomes easier. All in all a 5 star experience ! Totally recommended!
