Hotel pickup and a guided day in Cappadocia, from Göreme Open Air Museum to Pasabag and Avanos, plus Ozkonak underground city.

“The itinerary was good, but I wish our guide did more at some of the sites such as Monks Valley, Pigeon Valley and Uchisar Castle than just dropping us off. There was very little explanation and no walking around with us to show the sites. I saw other tour guides were giving a lot more info. It could’ve been a more informative tour as there’s so much history in the region, but instead it was just taking photos at the tourist spots mostly.”

Small-group south Cappadocia day tour from Goreme, featuring Derinkuyu Underground City, Ilhara Valley walk, Selime, Pigeon Valley, and lunch.

“Our recent tour experience was unfortunately marred by poor conflict management from our guide, Ada. From Travel Mania During the tour, my daughter followed the guide’s instructions and placed her belongings on a tour bus seat to reserve it—something Ada had explicitly advised so passengers could return to the same seats after ground stops. Despite this, another traveler family took her seat not once, but twice, ignoring that her items were already there. The first time, we politely reminded the traveler family that the seat was already taken, and he returned to his own. But shockingly, the second time he did it again—and instead of addressing the issue fairly, our…”

“We were a small group lead by the tour guide, around 6 of us. However, time was still quite packed and rushed. We did not have much time to take photos at certain attraction points which was very regretful as we would not be back there anymore. Guide gave us a lot of time to stop at shops/places where tourists would have to spend money but however not at the main attraction points, like at the ihlara valley, where more time should be allocated there. Time at a certain location was also decided by the guide, like after he was done with his smoke break, we would have to head…”

It was the perfect balance of walking and car ride. He taught us SO MUCH about Turkish culture and history. We loved it!”

“Alteraram o roteiro. Mudaram a cidade subterrânea, não visitamos o mosteiro, incluíram uma loja de couro e só soubemos disso uma hora antes o que não nos permitiu cancelar para ter o reembolso. Esse roteiro não condiz com o que eles oferecem. A guia foi até ótima e ela não tem culpa mas fomos lesados em comprar esse pacote por conta de um roteiro que foi alterado sem nenhum aviso prévio. Dei 3 estrelas so por conta da guia que foi muito boa.”

“Absolutely amazing experience! I wanted to offer the balloon flight to my mother as a birthday gift but I'm very afraid of heights and she doesn't speak English, so I spoke with Discovery Balloons and they allowed me to go with her as watcher (and later my dad was also able to come with us). They picked us up at the hotel and then we went to the agency for breakfast and safety instruction. We then went to where the flight starts and stayed there till the balloon went up. My mother loved the flight! She said it's absolutely beautiful. Me and my dad came back to the station and…”
