“We joined a day tour with Mehmed as our guide, and it was honestly such a wonderful experience. He’s incredibly friendly and easy to connect with, and you can really feel his passion in the way he explains everything. He shared each place with so much detail, depth, and enthusiasm that it made the whole tour come alive. I also really appreciated how open he was about his own life and experiences — it made the day feel more personal and meaningful, and it was so easy to feel comfortable around him. Highly recommend joining a tour with Mehmed if you get the chance!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 57 reviews · 7 hours · from $34

Cappadocia’s Green Tour blends Ihlara Valley walking, underground city caves, and Pigeon Valley hikes with lunch, guided in English or Spanish.

“Waste of a day. Stopped first at a scenic outlook over the city for 20mins for photos, only needed 10mins, then continued on to an Onyx shop which wasn’t mentioned in the tour. Had to stand through talk( quick luckily) then showed into a few rooms where we are able to buy jewellery. Wasn’t interested in that so we were allowed to then cross the road to look at pigeon valley and have another 20 minutes there for some photos, but we had been expecting a walk through pigeon valley as it had been mentioned in their spiel about the tour. Then drove a long 40 mins or so to…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 36 reviews · 2 hours · from $28

Two-hour Rose & Red Valley hike in Cappadocia with Column Church, cave churches, and an excellent Red Valley sunset stop for $28.

“The hike was cancelled because we did not meet the minimum number of participants. However, they offered us either a sunset horseback ride for an additional €25 or a sunset ATV tour (which required a driver’s license). We chose the horseback ride, and it was absolutely awesome, highly recommended! Our guide, Ahmed, made sure we were safe and had everything we needed, and of course, he took great care of his horses. He also took plenty of photos, which we really appreciated. There were only three of us on the tour, which felt like the perfect group size. At the end, he offered us a framed picture of us riding…”

Perfect lunch break & we celebrated with a glass of wine at his local in Avanos. Thank you to all the reviewers before me, you are the reason I did this. A definite must, but you do…”

10.Mix Tour and Hiking

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 10 reviews · 6 to 7 hours (approx.) · from $59

Göreme day tour with fairy chimneys, Zelve, Devrent, Avanos pottery, Uchisar viewpoint, and Ozkonak underground city. Pickup included.

“We wouldn't do it again. It was not much informations given about the stops (general infos about the spots, how long we're there, when we meet again), it was mostly a rush. Only at the selling stores (3! Incl. Leather and nits, which is not in the discription) which are much overpriced we were almost locked inside and asked thousand times if we wanna buy anything. Also the restaurant isnt a good represantation of the rich and good turkish cuisine. So all in all, overpriced and i would recommend friends to do it cheaper by taxi.”
