How long does a Turkish bath take?
Plan for about 2 to 3 hours from hotel pickup to drop-off. That covers both transfers and the whole Basic Hamam programme: sauna and steam room, the kese scrub, the foam treatment and a basic aromatic oil massage of about 20 minutes, with time to relax at the end.

The visit, step by step
-
Hotel pickup
You are collected at your hotel at the time we confirmed with you.
-
Transfer
An air-conditioned vehicle takes you to the hamam assigned to your area.
-
Sauna & steam
You warm up in the sauna and the steam room.
-
Kese
The attendant scrubs you from head to toe with the kese mitt.
-
Foam treatment
A foam wash, then a foam massage.
-
Aromatic oil massage
A basic aromatic oil massage of about 20 minutes.
-
Relax
Time to cool down, rest and change.
-
Hotel return
The transfer takes you back to your hotel.
The order and timing inside the hamam can vary with the hamam and the day. The massage lasts about 20 minutes. What happens at each stage is in your first Turkish bath, step by step.
What makes it shorter or longer
- Where your hotel is. Pickup and drop-off times depend on your hotel's place on the day's transfer route.
- The day's schedule. Your exact pickup time is confirmed according to your hotel and daily transfer schedule.
- Anything extra you choose. A longer massage or an extra treatment, arranged at the hamam, adds its own time.
Fitting it into your holiday
Keep the whole block of 2 to 3 hours free, and avoid a day with a flight or another fixed appointment close by. It is worth keeping the rest of the day easy, too.
