About this experience
The Secrets Of The Commagene Kingdom Mount Nemrut the legend is famous for its giant mousalea and God statues which were built for Commagene King; “Antiochus I” who ruled in Adıyaman except of its height size. The king have these statues and mousalea done to show his appreciation for the Gods and his own ancestors.

Book This Tour!
Book This Tour! An unforgettable, life changing trip! I am blown away how many incredible things I saw and experienced and how many amazing and kind people I met over two days. Mount Nemrut, Gobekli Tepe, Urfa, and Harran blew my expectations and then some. If you are a lover of history and culture, forget Cappadocia and come here! This tour was worth every penny and will make you feel like true adventurer. Dream Team The agency, my guide, Hussain, and our driver, Ibrahim, were phenomenal and went above and beyond to make my trip seamless and continuously enjoyable and deeply enriching. You will learn about history, culture, flora (identifying cedars of Lebanon for example), fauna, and everything in between. As a busy professional, I could not have asked for a more structured and well paced tour—with rest periods, refreshments, and delicious meals all built in. Best of all, your tour team is so embedded in the local community that you will be treated like a local by extension—prices included! You go from being a classless tourist to a welcome guest everywhere you go. Safety Coming solo from the US, I was at first a bit apprehensive about taking a trip down to Southeastern Anatolia/Upper Mesopotamia——an area that I have always wanted to visit but at the same time seemed daunting, particularly after the major earthquake in the region last year. Happy to report however my apprehensions were unfounded and that I felt safe, secure, and content everywhere I traveled in this part of Turkey. The people of this region are gracious and kind and my tour team really brought this vast and beautiful hidden gem of a region to life for me. You Need a Guide On a closing note, unless you are from this region and speak the local languages (Kurdish and Turkish), you will absolutely need a guide for visiting Southeastern Anatolia/Upper Mesopotamia. I thought about making a trip without a guide but that would have been a big mistake and I would have missed out on so much and caused myself unnecessary headaches trying to figure out logistics.

Nature and ancient worlds at its best!
I had an amazing 2 days in eastern turkey. Such a beautiful part of the world. With mountains, lush green hills, rivers, what was desert before is now abundant with green lush lands. Oldest known site Gobekli Tepe had amazing energy, as did Abraham's cave. Sanliurfa was magical. Just wish I had more time to really absorb. Everything. So much to see in 2 days...will have to go back. Amazing tour guide and driver 😊

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Mount Nemrut and Gobekli Tepe Tour 2-Day 1-Night from Istanbul: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Istanbul.
How much does Mount Nemrut and Gobekli Tepe Tour 2-Day 1-Night from Istanbul cost?
+
Prices start at $200 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Istanbul usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Mount Nemrut and Gobekli Tepe Tour 2-Day 1-Night from Istanbul take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Istanbul is not rushed.
Is Mount Nemrut and Gobekli Tepe Tour 2-Day 1-Night from Istanbul worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Istanbul, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Mount Nemrut and Gobekli Tepe Tour 2-Day 1-Night from Istanbul?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Mount Nemrut and Gobekli Tepe Tour 2-Day 1-Night from Istanbul suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Mount Nemrut and Gobekli Tepe Tour 2-Day 1-Night from Istanbul?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Istanbul can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Istanbul and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Mount Nemrut and Gobekli Tepe Tour 2-Day 1-Night from Istanbul start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Istanbul within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Istanbul?
+
On Outty we rank every Istanbul experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Istanbul 1, 2 or 3-Day Private Guided Istanbul Tour, Istanbul Luxury Bosphorus Yacht Cruise with Asian Side Stop, ISTANBUL BEST: Iconic Landmarks Full Day PRIVATE Guided City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Istanbul?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Istanbul?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
