Wonderful tour of Cappadocia

I join EKM Antalya travel agency with 2 days Cappadocia tour. The arrangement is good. The scenery of Cappadocia is very beautiful. The history and the nature both are amazing. The tour guide Timur is very nice and helpful. He can good speak good English and Russian languages. The most unforgettable is Ballon experience.

Wonderful

It was an amazing experience with good condition to travel, good food, wonderful landscapes and sites. A special mansion for the guide. We had asking for an english guide but in our group was just 3 travelers with this option. We was part in a group of russian spikers but the guide managed his time to make all to feel good. Whether did not let us to fly with hot air baloon but a jeep safari was beautiful substitute. This trip make my holiday probably best of my life.

Dont do this tour! You will most of the time and sit on the bus and see sourvenir shops!

I wouldnt recommend this tour as it doesnt follow the programm described in the website. We were picked up by the bus at 3 am the first day in Antalya and we arrived at capadoccia around 2 pm. The stops we did in Capadoccia were not the ones described in the tour as we didnt enter any of the places. Basically they stop you like 5 minutes in like 3 stops so you take a picture near the castle for example, but you cant go up to it because there is no time. They stop you several times to sell you stuff: ceramic, sweets...and then, of course there is so much time for that. In addition to that, they ask you to pay extra 15€ per lunch and there is no other option, as there is nothing else around tje place where you stop... At night, they ask you to pay 10€ extra for the view point, otherwise you can go to the hotel which is in Avaron, not Goreme. Summarizing: you will spend most of the time sitting at thw bus and seeing shops were they sell u stuff.

First timers in Cappadocia

We were thoroughly pleased with every aspect of our tour, amazed at the breadth of experiences packed into two days. The itinerary was meticulously planned, and our group of 10, accompanied by two guides fluent in English and Russian, ensured a smooth journey. The tour van was pristine, offering both comfort and safety, with a skilled driver at the helm. Erhan, our guide, brought over two decades of expertise, enriched by his deep roots in the Cappadocia region. His knowledge proved invaluable, particularly in adjusting the itinerary to accommodate weather conditions affecting hot air balloon flights. While some Western travelers might prefer more detailed itinerary information in advance, we found Erhan's approach to be characteristic of Turkish hospitality. Although the scheduled merchant stops catered to various interests, such as the delightful dried fruit and candy store, we regretted missing out on visits to the Orthodox "rock" churches with frescoes, possibly due to schedule adjustments. Accommodation details were disclosed only upon the tour's commencement. Despite the compact room furnished with three single beds and limited power outlets, it was clean and comfortable. Meals were served buffet-style, with beverages, including water, available for an additional charge. Our punctual hotel pickup marked the beginning of an extensive journey, stretching from Antalya to Side, adding an extra 40 minutes to an hour to our travel time. Nonetheless, we departed thoroughly impressed by the diversity of sites explored and the overall quality of the tour experience.

Response from the operator: We are so grateful for your 5-star review. Thanks for sharing your rating with us and the community.

Very nice excursion, beautiful Cappadocia

Very nice excursion, got to see beautiful places. Gayrat is a good guide, he looked after everyone in the group and made an effort to make it a pleasant trip, the driver did a good job as well despite a long journey. There are many stops on the way, so fairly comfortable. Excursion was in Russian, not in English, I didn’t mind, but it wasn’t clear when I booked, I thought it would be in English. I waited for an hour for the bus to pick me up at night, I was told the day before that my pick up was 30 minutes earlier than stated in the booking. Thankfully the guide got in touch with me and at least gave some clarity about the timing, otherwise it was very annoying to wait for an hour in the middle of the night.
