* We have been advised by TCDD, the authority managing Turkish Train services, that the Pamukkale Express traveling between Pamukkale and Istanbul will have all services suspended until further notice due to required maintenance on the tracks. Suspension is effective immediately and it is expected that services may be suspended for several months. This service is generally used for the return journey of your Aegean Delight tour, therefore we will need to utilise local bus services for the itinerary until train services are resumed. On Day 6 you will have additional free time at Pamukkale with use of hotel amenities until your departure to Denizli at 9pm. An additional complimentary dinner will also be provided for you at the hotel. At 10pm you will travel on the Pamukkale Bus service to Istanbul, with the estimated arrival time in Istanbul of 08.30am (tour guide does not accompany passengers). From there they will be transferred to your hotel accommodation as per the standard itinerary.
