Istanbul Turkish Bath Experience, Body Scrub, Foam Massage and Massage
One of the most authentic things to do when you come to Istanbul is to experience the bathhouse tradition that has been handed down for centuries, at least once. In this experience, you first warm up in the sauna and steam room, then the attendant cleanses away your dead skin with a special scrub glove. Next, a soothing foam massage is performed with plenty of soap bubbles, and the experience is completed with a 30-minute relaxing massage. When the session is over, Ottoman sherbet, Turkish delight, herbal tea and cake are served. You can choose between two different bathhouses; round-trip transfer from central hotels is included in the price. You can come on your own, as a couple, or with a group of friends.
