WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1.
GOREME PANORAMA, The most magnificent landscape around Göreme has been formed from its solidified lava streams, its ash and tuff stone, all dating from Neocene period. It is criss-crossed by deep valleys formed by heavy erosion. This veritable lunar landscape distinguishes itself by its extensive geological formations. The highly typical morphological structures of Cappadocia are the result of thousands of years of continual erosion, which has shaped the tuff deposits into the strangest pyramids and cones.
2.
UCHISAR is a troglodyte village situated 4 km east of Göreme. It is famous for the huge rock formation once used as a fortification. This extraordinary rock is the highest peak in the region and offers a magnificent panoramic view of the whole of Cappadocia with Mt. Erciyes in the distance.Most rooms in the castle are connected to each other with stairs, tunnels and passages. At the entrances of many rooms, there are millstone doors, just like the ones in the underground settlements, used to control access to these places. Due to erosion it is unfortunately not possible to reach all the rooms. Most of the rooms, located on the north side of the castle are still in use as pigeon houses (dovecotes) today. Farmers used these pigeon houses to collect the droppings of pigeons which is an excellent natural fertilizer for the orchards and vineyards.
3.
KAYMAKLI UNDERGROUND CITY is built under the hill known as the Citadel of Kaymaklı and was opened to visitors in 1964. The people of Kaymaklı (Enegup in Greek) have built their houses around nearly 100 tunnels of the underground city. The inhabitants of the region still use the most convenient places in the tunnels as cellars, storage areas and stables, which they access through their courtyards. Kaymaklı underground city has low, narrow and sloping passages. While the underground city consists of 8 floors below ground, only 4 of them are open to the public today, in which the spaces are organized around ventilation shafts.
4.
GOREME OPEN AIR MUSEUM, Cappadocia's most famous attraction, for good reason, is the Göreme Open Air Museum, a complex of medieval painted cave churches carved out by Orthodox monks. There are over 10 cave churches in the Göreme Open Air Museum. Along with rectories, dwellings, and a religious school, they form a large monastic complex carved out of a roughly ring-shaped rock formation in the otherworldly landscape of Cappadocia. The best way to explore the cave churches of Goreme is via the clearly marked path, working counterclockwise. Each one has a modern Turkish name, given by local villages based on a prominent feature.
5.
PASABAG, Highly remarkable earth pillars can be seen here, in the middle of a vineyard, hence the name of the place which means: the Pasha’s vineyard. Pasha means "General", the military rank, in Turkish and it is a very common nick name. This site is also called Monks Valley. The name was derived from some cones carved in tuff stones which stand apart. Currently, there is a vineyard and a number of tuff cones standing right next to the road.
6.
PIGEON VALLEY, thousands of pigeon houses carved into the rock. It is a surreal vision: an outrageously phallic landscape straight out of a Salvador Dali painting. The conical formations are the result of volcanic eruptions that took place millions of years ago. Eons of wind, rain and other forces of nature have eaten away at the volcanic rock creating tufa, a soft and malleable stone. Many of these cones, known as fairy chimneys, contain caves and labyrinths.
7.
Avanos is a town in centre of Cappadocia and famous for pottery making we will make a stop in one of the pottery workshop and you will watch pottery demonstration also you can try yourself as well
8.
DEVRENT VALLEY, Also known as Imaginary Valley or Pink Valley, this area does not have cave churches like the other valleys of Cappadocia. So what makes it so famous? The lunar landscape! Devrent Valley hides many different rock formations within. The small fairy chimneys in the valley form a lunar landscape, or moonscape, by their strange appearance. The valley has many animal-shaped rocks. Some of the most commonly seen shapes include camel, snake, seals, and dolphin

We took a day trip to Cappadocia. Loved the luxurious and comfortable custom van, our guide was knowledgable and fun. He took us to all the best sites with information about the history of the area as well as the site itself and had an excellent recommendation for a reasonably priced lunch in a local cafe. We highly recommend this tour and it is very good value for money.

Baki was a wonderful tour guide. He was very informative, kind and flexible during our private, individualized tour. There were 6 adults and we were all comfortable in the nice, large, air conditioned vehicle during the entire day.

Vedat was such an incredible tour guide! We did a private tour (11AM to 7PM) and visited multiple sites in Cappadocia including fairy chimneys sight seeing, underground city, church caves, Uchisar castle, and pidgeon valley. Vedat is a local to Cappadocia and taught us so much about the region and its history. He answered all of our questions as well and made our experience in Cappadocia unforgettable! Suleman was also an amazing driver and we felt very safe with his driving.

Excellent day in Cappadocia. Relaxed , at our own pace - we walked around and saw everything very comfortably. Our guide - Mustafa - was simply amazing!! With him - we didn’t just learn about the rock formation, but we learned about the history of the entire region - and I don’t just mean Turkey here - for the last couple thousand years!! And his take on the more recent events were interesting as well. He took us to a local eatery for lunch - which we also enjoyed. Loved the sights, super comfortable and luxurious car, great stories !!
