  • Duration: 4 Hours (approx.)

Indulge yourself in a steam, soap, and scrub at an authentic hamam with this 2 hour Turkish bath experience in Istanbul.

Duration: 4 Hours

Operating Days: Daily

Tour Starting Time: Anytime between 9:00am thru 7:00pm

You will be picked up from your centrally located Istanbul hotel and take a ride to Hurrem Sultan Hamami. 

You will leave your coyness at the door and follow the locals’ lead to strip off completely or to change into your bikini or swimming shorts if you want to reserve your modesty. Then slip on your peştamal (traditional cotton robe) and step inside the bath chamber where a heated marble platform covers the floor.

Lie on the marble slab and relax to encourage your body to sweat and splash yourself with hot water from the bathing basins that line the edges of the room. After roughly 45 minutes of relaxing and building up a sweat in the steamy bath chamber, one of the baths’ attendants will exfoliate your body, scrubbing you down with a loofah mitten and hot, soapy water. Rinse away the soapy suds with hot water from the bathing basins, put your peştamal back on and then visit one of the baths’ cooler rooms to relax.

The duration of each stage of your Turkish baths experience varies, but most people find 45 minutes on the marble slab, 15 minutes of exfoliation, and an hour of relaxation time to be the norm. Feeling relaxed and rejuvenated, you will return to the changing rooms to dress and then leave the bath house.
