ITINERARY

• We pick up all our customers free of charge from the hotel they are staying in. This is from the beginning of the tour.
• After all our customers are picked up from the hotel, our tour guide first informs our customers about our tour and route in the vehicle. Then we will visit our first location, Çavuşin Castle, and Çavuşin village, one of the most beautiful villages in Cappadocia.
• In Paşabağ, also known as Monk’s Valley, visitors will have the opportunity to explore the unique fairy chimneys—tall, cone-shaped rock formations that have been naturally sculpted over time. The area is famous for its mushroom-shaped fairy chimneys, some of which are up to 30 meters tall. Travelers can also see the cave dwellings and chapels carved into the rocks, offering a glimpse into the region’s rich history. Paşabağ is a perfect spot to take stunning photos, walk through the enchanting valley, and learn about the ancient monastic life that once flourished here.
• In Devrent Valley, also known as Imagination Valley, visitors will be amazed by the surreal landscape filled with unique rock formations that resemble various animals and objects. The valley is famous for its animal-shaped fairy chimneys, where imaginative travelers can spot formations resembling camels, dolphins, and even a head of a snake. There are no cave dwellings here, but the extraordinary natural sculptures offer a fantastic opportunity for photography and creative exploration. It's a perfect spot for those who enjoy letting their imagination run wild while taking in the breathtaking scenery.
• In Avanos, visitors will have the chance to experience the ancient art of pottery-making, a tradition that dates back thousands of years. At local pottery workshops, travelers can watch skilled artisans shape clay into beautiful, handcrafted pieces using traditional techniques passed down through generations. After witnessing the process, guests can even try their hand at making their own pottery. Avanos is also a great place to purchase unique, handcrafted pottery items as souvenirs, including decorative plates, bowls, and vases, which make perfect gifts to take home. This experience offers a blend of culture, craftsmanship, and creativity that visitors won’t want to miss.
• In Uçhisar, guests will enjoy a relaxing one-hour break to savor the flavors of traditional Cappadocian cuisine. During this time, they’ll have the opportunity to taste a variety of local dishes, prepared with fresh, regional ingredients. Some must-try dishes include "testi kebabı" (a delicious meat and vegetable stew cooked in a sealed clay pot), "manti" (Turkish dumplings filled with ground meat), and "gözleme" (a savory stuffed flatbread). This meal will not only satisfy your taste buds but also provide a deeper connection to the rich culinary heritage of the region. It’s a perfect opportunity to experience authentic Cappadocian hospitality and flavors in a charming setting.
• After lunch, we will visit Uçhisar Castle, which is the highest point in Cappadocia and offers stunning panoramic views of the entire region. However, this visit will be from the base of the castle, as we will not be climbing to the top. Visitors will still get to admire the castle's impressive architecture and learn about its historical significance. The castle, carved into the soft volcanic rock, was once used as a strategic lookout and a fortress. It's a great spot for photos and to appreciate the grandeur of this ancient structure from a unique perspective.
• We will also visit Pigeon Valley, one of the most beautiful and serene valleys in Cappadocia. The valley is named after the many pigeon houses carved into the soft volcanic rock, which were used by locals for centuries to collect pigeon droppings as fertilizer for the surrounding fields. Visitors will enjoy a scenic walk through the valley, surrounded by stunning rock formations, lush greenery, and the peaceful atmosphere. It’s a fantastic spot for photography, as the valley offers unique views of the fairy chimneys and the surrounding landscape. The gentle walk through Pigeon Valley is a perfect way to experience the natural beauty and tranquility of Cappadocia.
• Our final stop will be Göreme Panorama, a breathtaking viewpoint that offers a stunning panoramic view of the Göreme National Park and its unique landscape. From this vantage point, visitors can admire the famous fairy chimneys, the intricate cave dwellings, and the charming villages scattered throughout the region. It’s an ideal spot for capturing the beauty of Cappadocia in a single frame, as the view stretches across the valleys and rock formations. Whether it's the sunrise or sunset, the changing light makes this place even more magical, providing a perfect ending to the tour.
