Cappadocia Tours and Trips

A great week offering lots of opportunity to explore this wonderful, unique part of Turkey - a good mix of walking and sightseeing with the chance to take a hot air balloon ride and to experience the serenity of the whirling dervish ceremony. The tour leader was very knowledgeable and accommodating. It was nice to relax and swim in the hotel pool at the end of the day overlooking the amazing scenery. My tip would be to seek out more traditional restaurants in the back streets rather than sticking only to those on the main streets. I would also suggest having a couple of nights in Istanbul before or after the holiday.

I chose this trip for the walking and it didn't disappoint. The valley walks with cliffs and ancient cave houses and churches either side, exotic flowers, nut and fruit trees were delightful. The hotel could not have been better and its location was perfect for viewing the coloured hot air balloons that flew over early every morning. Goreme is full of excellent restaurants, cafes and shops selling unusual gifts. Necip the tour leader was superb, very patient, hugely knowledgeable on the history of the region and did an excellent job in balancing the different abilities and interests of group members to provide a good experience for all

A fabulous holiday, all round. Our guide Necip was knowledgeable and able to alter our walks dependant on the weather. The group I was with was small and every day I enjoyed the walking, terrain, views, food and company.

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the cultural and geological history of the area and was very passionate and proud to share his knowledge with the group. It is clear that he knows the area well and cares deeply about it and was always keen to offer information and advice in order that visitors to Cappadocia can get the best experience possible.

An easy going walking tour of a wonderful part of Turkey, at the lower end of moderate i would say but enough to feel that you have benefitted from the length of the walks. Great scenery and fascinating history staying in a really nice hotel with fab facilities and a brilliant view especially of the balloons ascending in the early hours ( worthwhile getting up before dawn to view them). Had an excellent group which always makes a difference on any trip

Very good Trip-Guide Necip was great, went above and Beyond. Excellent Hotel-Zemi, great staff. Overall, great trip. would recommend. With a Few suggestions. Would be very helpful to post a Message Board at the Hotel. We ran in to some issues with the initial evening Meeting being at a different time due to flight delays and late flights. That wasn't clearly communicated to us. It all worked out but some didn't know the time had been changed. Would be helpful to clarify lunches on certain days. It was a little confusing on some hikes whether we were supposed to bring something or if we would be able to stop somewhere. Maybe have the hotel offer box lunches on those days as an option. Not just this trip but on all trips-it would be helpful if the whatsapp Group chat could be set up prior to that first day. You have all our Numbers-People could accept before the trip starts if they wanted to. But it would be a good way to communicate with the group if any changes were made prior to that first meeting.
