About this tour

Rejuvenate your body and mind with an authentic 1-hour Turkish Bath (Hamam) experience in Side. Includes round-trip hotel transfer, traditional scrub, rich foam massage, sauna, and peeling. Adults 20 €, Kids 15 €.

Step away from the sun and discover the centuries-old tradition of Turkish wellness with our Side Turkish Bath & Hamam Tour. Designed for ultimate relaxation, this efficient and rejuvenating experience fits perfectly into your holiday schedule.

Your journey begins with a comfortable, short hotel pickup from your Side resort. Upon arrival at our partner's traditional, impeccably clean hamam, you will be welcomed by professional attendants. The core 1-hour experience takes place on a warm, heated marble slab (göbektaşı). It starts with a vigorous, exfoliating kese (scrub) to remove dead skin cells, followed by a luxurious, cloud-like olive oil soap foam massage that leaves your skin feeling incredibly soft and renewed.

After the main session, you can unwind in the traditional sauna and enjoy a revitalizing body peeling or clay mask. Towels, slippers, and basic toiletries are provided, making this a truly hassle-free, all-inclusive spa escape just minutes from your hotel.

  • The 1-hour session involves heat and exfoliation; please inform the staff of any skin sensitivities, heart conditions, or pregnancy beforehand.
  • The experience is deeply relaxing but involves physical scrubbing; it is not recommended for those seeking a completely passive, no-touch spa treatment.

What to bring

  • Swimsuit (Mandatory for the hamam)
  • Personal toiletries (shampoo and conditioner, if you wish to wash your hair)

Local knowledge

  • The traditional "kese" (scrub) removes dead skin cells incredibly effectively, leaving your skin feeling brand new. Do not skip the foam massage; it is the most relaxing and iconic part of the 1-hour session!

Our hamam partners maintain the highest standards of hygiene and authenticity. We personally verify that the marble slabs are heated perfectly and the olive oil soap foam is as rich and traditional as it gets.
