How does the hammam visit in Alanya work?
Towel, slippers and a locker provided
We pick you up from your hotel at the time you chose and drive you to the hammam.
Staff meet you on arrival and show you to the changing room, where you’re given a towel, slippers and a locker key.
Once you’ve changed, you step into the hammam itself: warm air, steam and soft lighting, and your body slowly starts to relax.
Sauna, steam room, jacuzzi and pool
First you have time to warm up. The sauna, steam room, jacuzzi and pool are all there for you to use.
The heat warms your body and softens your skin, so the scrub that follows feels gentler and more comfortable.
Kese scrub for a more even tan
The scrub is done with a kese, a special exfoliating mitt. The therapist gently removes dead skin cells and leaves your skin smooth.
It takes about 10 minutes. It’s worth having in the first days of your holiday, because your tan will then go on more evenly.
Foam massage in thick, warm lather
After the kese comes the foam massage. You’re covered in warm soap foam, and slow, gentle strokes ease the tension so you can switch off completely.
It lasts about 10 minutes and is one of the highlights of the visit: plenty of foam, warmth and a light massage.
Classic oil massage for tired muscles
Next comes a classic oil massage. It lasts about 20 minutes and relaxes muscles tired from the journey, the flight, sightseeing and active days.
The massage is calm and unhurried, and afterwards your body feels light.
Rest before the drive back
After the treatments you can rest and take your time before the drive back.
Back at your hotel without giving up a whole day
You spend about 1.5–2 hours at the hammam itself. Including transfers, the whole programme takes about 2.5–3 hours, so it fits easily into any day of your holiday. When it’s over, the bus takes you back to your hotel.
A couple of hours at the hammam lets your body rest, leaves your skin clean before you tan and gives you a real Turkish bath ritual without taking up a whole day.
Book your seat online with no prepayment. You pay for the tour on the bus on the day.

What is a Turkish hammam?
A hammam is a gentle bathing ritual. There’s no fierce heat in the marble hall: your body warms up gradually in the warm steam. Then come the kese scrub, foam massage and classic oil massage. The treatments take place on warm marble, at an unhurried pace and in a relaxed atmosphere.
Do the hammam staff speak English?
Yes, the staff speak English. On the spot you can check the details of the programme, ask questions, and ask for a gentler or a firmer massage.
Does the hammam have separate sections for men and women?
No, the hammam is mixed. Women can, however, have their massage done by a female therapist. If this matters to you, please mention it when you book or as soon as you arrive at the hammam.
Can I bring children to the hammam?
Yes, children are welcome. Children under 7 go free, but no treatments are provided for them, and parents look after their little ones themselves. For children aged 7–12, the programme includes the kese scrub and foam massage. The classic oil massage is given from the age of 13, and from that age a child can have the full programme, just like an adult.
What is a kese scrub?
A kese scrub cleanses the skin with a special mitt. Your body is well warmed up beforehand, which softens the skin, and the therapist carefully removes the dead skin cells. Afterwards your skin feels smoother and fresher.
What is a foam massage?
During a foam massage your body is covered in thick, warm foam. The therapist uses soft massage strokes, and you gradually relax. Straight after the kese scrub it feels especially good and rounds off the cleansing stage.
When is the best time to go to the hammam?
In the first days of your holiday. The hammam helps you recover from the flight and unwind, and after the kese scrub your tan goes on more evenly. The programme takes just a few hours, so it’s easy to combine with the beach on any day.
How long does the hammam visit take?
Guests spend about 1.5–2 hours at the hammam itself. The whole programme, transfers included, takes about 2.5–3 hours.
Do I need to bring my own towel?
The hammam provides towels. If you’d rather use your own, you’re welcome to bring it.
What is included, and what costs extra?
The adult ticket includes the sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, pool, kese scrub, foam massage and classic oil massage. That is the full hammam programme. On the spot you may be offered extra treatments or massages beyond the programme. These are paid for separately at the hammam’s prices, and it’s up to you whether to have them.
Will my child have their own seat on the bus?
Children with a paid ticket get their own seat. Children who travel free sit on an adult’s lap. If you want your little one to have their own seat on the bus, book a paid child ticket for them.
