Our tour begins with a visit to the Karakuş Tumulus, an impressive royal burial mound built for the female members of the Commagene dynasty. Next, we head to the Cendere Bridge, a stunning example of Roman engineering, standing strong for over 2,000 years across the Kahta River. Take a short break here to enjoy the tranquil scenery and capture the perfect photo.
We then continue to Arsemia, the ancient summer capital of the Commagene Kingdom. Explore the hidden reliefs, inscriptions, and underground tunnels that once served as ceremonial paths and royal passages. Your guide will share fascinating stories that bring this forgotten city back to life.

Here, you’ll stand face to face with the iconic colossal statues of gods and kings, silently watching over the mountains for centuries. As the sun begins to set, witness the landscape transform into a golden sea of light—an awe-inspiring scene that makes Nemrut’s sunset one of the most magical moments in Turkey.
At the end of this remarkable day, we return to Şanlıurfa with hearts full of wonder and cameras full of memories.
