Great

Sahra_C, Apr 2024

Such a great experience, Erkan was really nice, he taught us great things about Cappadocia. It was a small group so everything was fluid and great atmosphere.

Interesting and Unique

Saurabh_D, Mar 2024

Of the three tours i.e. Red, Blue and Green, this is the best once. Got to see some really interesting and cool geological features. Our guide was very knowledgable and patient. Very interesting and unique.

Really a half, not full day tour

Amanda_K, Nov 2023

Get what you pay for... The guide was very nice and accommodating, think the structure of this tour is off though. First, it's more like a half day, in the middle of the day with a pick-up after 10am vs 8am advertised. That's not a bad thing, but then think this should be a true half day tour without the lunch nor stopping at multiple shopping sites, which seemed to make up the majority of time vs actual sightseeing. Maybe "The Red Tour" doesn't have that much to see, yet could have definitely done without the lunch stop and had this just be a true half day tour.

Interesting if traveling without small children !

The Red Historical Tour of Cappadocia was definitely interesting but not child or aged family friendly in certain parts. There was expected than longer treks involved with a toddler and aged parents which we would not have gone through with had we known earlier. Our tour guide also wasn't very happy with the fact that there were members in the group tour who were making it slower. If so , shouldn't have advised this tour as child friendly with moderate amount of walking involved in the description , especially for tourists who have never been to Cappadocia before.

Well, it's a long trip...

Well, it's a long trip around 6h, but Dona os very helpful guide. I loved the trip, also all the guys with me. I didn't like only the pottery shopping place, but it's my personal opinion. Very touristic, Cappadocia ceramics miseum I loved more, but visited at my own.

Value for Money Tour of Cappadocia 'Essentials'

Ravindra_J, Nov 2022

This is a great half-day tour for those who wish to experience the 'essentials' of Cappadocia but still have time left over for shopping and eating out. The tour included a pick-up from our hotel. The first place to visit was the Devrent Valley which has a number of interesting rock formations and it is left to your interpretation to figure out what they most resemble. From there we moved on to the Zelve Open Air Museum which was occupied by cave dwellers - mostly of the Christian faith - till as late as 1945, but is presently considered unsafe in view of possible earthquakes. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage site. One can get some fascinating insights into the life of the people who lived and worshipped here. We then moved on to the site of the Fairy Chimneys which are conical and layered rock formations, shaped by wind erosion over millenia. we also visited a pottery making shop and were given a demonstration of the techniques used by ancient artisans to create some wonderful pottery, which used the red soil of the Cappadocia region. A sumptuous buffet lunch was also provided to our small tour group at a local hotel and the tour wound up with a trip to a dollar shop for those wishing to pick up Turkish textiles and apparel. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and besides explaining about the sites themselves also gave us many insights into Turkish history, culture and society. Overall a value-for-money tour, which is best for a family or small group of people.

Great tour!

We had a great time during this tour! We went to all best sights of cappadoccia and had a free time to spend as we wanted. Our guide Haroun was very helpful , funny and professional and made our tour even better ! Also the food at restaurant was very good also. If we ever come back be sure we will book it again!
