What To Expect

  1. Stop 1: Pre Arranged Pick Up Point

    Our chauffeur will collect you in one of our air-conditioned vehicles from a pre-arranged central location in Cappadocia and set off on your journey to the Göreme Open-Air Museum.

  2. Stop 2: Arrival at Göreme Open Air Museum

    In a spectacular landscape, entirely sculpted by erosion, the Göreme valley and its surroundings contain rock-hewn sanctuaries that provide unique evidence of Byzantine art in the post-Iconoclastic period.

    Dwellings, troglodyte villages and underground towns. Also, the remains of a traditional human habitat dating back to the 4th century can be seen there.

  3. Stop 3: Three Beauties Fairy Chimneys.

    The three Beauties Urgup Fairy Chimneys are the most famous fairy chimneys located outside of Urgup at Cappadocia.

    The Three Beauties are iconic rock formations that locals have created many legends about. You can enjoy taking pictures of the fairy chimneys and valleys with rustic colours.

  4. Stop 4: Devrent Valley

    The Devrent Valley (Imagination Valley) has stunning landscapes shaped naturally by nature. Even though there are no Byzantine frescoes, Citadels or Churches, the scenery is breathtaking.

  5. Stop 5: Pasabag Valley

    Pasabag Valley has the best collection of fairy chimneys in Cappadocia.

    In this area, you can see a few different types of fairy chimneys. The elongated fairy chimneys look like giant asparagus or Japanese king trumpet mushrooms.

    Then there are those that are pedestal shape with broader bases. The cone shape fairy chimney is a chimney that has lost its cap due to erosion.

  6. Stop 6: The Red Valley

    The Red Valley is one of the most spectacular valleys in Cappadocia with its different kind of rock formations in various colours.

    One of the most beautiful places to go walking is the Red Valley. The hidden rock-cut churches in the valley surprise many visitors on private guided tours.

  7. Stop 7: Kiliclar Valley

    Kılıclar Valley is situated between Goreme Valley and Aktepe and is the most beautiful of valleys in Cappadocia.

    Entering the valley with motor vehicles is not possible, so we will walk through instead.

    There are white ice cream cone formations and narrow passageways between the white-domed rocks.

  8. Stop 8: Avanos Village

    The old city of Avanos or Venessa as it was formally known is overlooking the Kizilirmak River which is the longest river in Turkey.

    The main reason for visiting here is the pottery which the village is famous for.

  9. Stop 9: Urgup Town

    The oldest part of Urgup town has many well preserved old houses which are well worth visiting.

    Next, we will visit a Saints tomb on the Temenni Wishing Hill, which offers spectacular views of the town.

    The fertile volcanic soil makes for delicious sweet grapes, which are turned into wine at the local Ottoman-Greek style wineries.

  10. Stop 10: Homeward Bound

    We will start our journey back to your designated pick up point.

    The Open Air Museum is certainly worth a visit and a good indication of how the people lived so long ago. The beautiful frescoes in some of the caves are magnificent considering they are from the 10th to 12th century. Nice lunch and afterwards the villages, landscapes all amazing.Truly worth the money this trip.
