Why this is not the Pamukkale hotel tour
The local day at /tours/pamukkale/thermal-pools-tour starts when you are already in Pamukkale. This page is the drive from Antalya, about three hours each way, in your own van. Shared coaches from Lara are cheaper and they leave on their clock. The private day leaves when your hotel and the site hours actually fit.
Kusadasi, and a one-way drop
The same van can start in Kusadasi or Selçuk and end in Antalya, or the reverse, with luggage in the back. That is a quote on this route, not a second URL. Say which hotel you leave and which hotel you need by evening. Ephesus on the same day as Pamukkale is a different, longer ask. The multi-city package is /packages/istanbul-ephesus-pamukkale.
