You will spend fun moments with guide narrations in this open-air ruin site, which consists of rock formations resembling different shapes, also known as Dream Valley.
In this museum, which entered the UNESCO World Heritage List on December 6, 1985, you will experience the Christian life in Cappadocia with our guide and you will be able to listen to the stories of all the church paintings made in the 6th century.
We will spend an average of 1 hour in this museum, which is known as the monks' valley, which is the highest in the region and also has 2-3 headed rock formations. You will listen to the story of St. Simeon's life in the house he built into the rocks with astonishment from your guide.
The pottery and pottery that emerged by mixing the red soil discovered in the Cappadocia region with water during the Hittite Civilization contributed to the life of the people of the region. Later, this occupation turned into art. At the destination, we will watch the show of this art from the masters of the region. A lucky person will try to do this nice hobby.
Stopping at a panoramic point called Esentepe on the Göreme - Uçhisar road, you can look at the most beautiful part of Cappadocia from above. Maybe these beautiful moments will be accompanied by a delicious Turkish coffee.
Love Valley is one of Cappadocia’s most iconic landscapes, known for its unique fairy chimneys and breathtaking panoramic views. The valley offers a surreal setting with its naturally formed rock pillars, often associated with romantic legends and symbolism. It’s a popular spot for sunrise watching, photo shoots, and peaceful hikes surrounded by nature’s otherworldly beauty. Whether you''re visiting with a partner or solo, Love Valley leaves a lasting impression with its dreamy atmosphere.
To take some photographs and listen to the history of Uçhisar Castle, the highest point of the region, a short walk is taken on the promenade under the castle.
Three of us joined 9 others on this small group tour. Hamar, our guide, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, friendly and personable. We saw fabulous sites of Cappadocia. Loved the cave houses and fairy chimney formations. I highly recommend this tour.
Such a great experience, Erkan was really nice, he taught us great things about Cappadocia. It was a small group so everything was fluid and great atmosphere.
Of the three tours i.e. Red, Blue and Green, this is the best once. Got to see some really interesting and cool geological features. Our guide was very knowledgable and patient. Very interesting and unique.
Get what you pay for... The guide was very nice and accommodating, think the structure of this tour is off though. First, it's more like a half day, in the middle of the day with a pick-up after 10am vs 8am advertised. That's not a bad thing, but then think this should be a true half day tour without the lunch nor stopping at multiple shopping sites, which seemed to make up the majority of time vs actual sightseeing. Maybe "The Red Tour" doesn't have that much to see, yet could have definitely done without the lunch stop and had this just be a true half day tour.
The Red Historical Tour of Cappadocia was definitely interesting but not child or aged family friendly in certain parts. There was expected than longer treks involved with a toddler and aged parents which we would not have gone through with had we known earlier. Our tour guide also wasn't very happy with the fact that there were members in the group tour who were making it slower. If so , shouldn't have advised this tour as child friendly with moderate amount of walking involved in the description , especially for tourists who have never been to Cappadocia before.
Excellent tour. I went with my two teens and they also loved it. Our tour guide was very knowledge. We were so impressed by how much she knew. We wouldn’t have enjoyed all the sightseeings without her knowledge. Thank you, would definitely recommended this tour.
The guide Eraan was very professional and knowledgeable... he gave all the information needed for the tour and many other additional information as well. Really enjoyed. Highly recommended.
Well, it's a long trip around 6h, but Dona os very helpful guide. I loved the trip, also all the guys with me. I didn't like only the pottery shopping place, but it's my personal opinion. Very touristic, Cappadocia ceramics miseum I loved more, but visited at my own.
Had a great time during the tour. Visited almost most of the main attraction sites in Cappadocia. Our tour guide was also nice, friendly and very knowledgeable on the area since he is a local there. We were picked up and dropped at our hotel and were also provided with lunch meal. I joined this tour with my old parents, so, they were some sites that we just passed and the tour guide was kind enough to let my parents and I to stay back in the van. Overall, it was a pleasure! Really recommended!
Veysel was a great guide. Gave us time to enjoy on our own but also covered all the important information and history. Transportation was comfortable and always on time. Food was really good. Overall a good tour experience!
We booked the Red Tour through Cappadocia. Our bilingual guide Mert was great and had comprehensible answers to every question. He is a trustworthy person with very very good English skills. He gave us great insight into the history as well as the culture of that unique region and the atmosphere was very relaxed and comfortable at all times. Also, timing was perfect! We had enough time to take our individual perspective of all sights and of course take our pictures. Mert had useful tipps for further activities and points of interest throughout the region. We are very happy and recommend Touchstone Travel without any hesitation at all.
This is a great half-day tour for those who wish to experience the 'essentials' of Cappadocia but still have time left over for shopping and eating out. The tour included a pick-up from our hotel. The first place to visit was the Devrent Valley which has a number of interesting rock formations and it is left to your interpretation to figure out what they most resemble. From there we moved on to the Zelve Open Air Museum which was occupied by cave dwellers - mostly of the Christian faith - till as late as 1945, but is presently considered unsafe in view of possible earthquakes. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage site. One can get some fascinating insights into the life of the people who lived and worshipped here. We then moved on to the site of the Fairy Chimneys which are conical and layered rock formations, shaped by wind erosion over millenia. we also visited a pottery making shop and were given a demonstration of the techniques used by ancient artisans to create some wonderful pottery, which used the red soil of the Cappadocia region. A sumptuous buffet lunch was also provided to our small tour group at a local hotel and the tour wound up with a trip to a dollar shop for those wishing to pick up Turkish textiles and apparel. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and besides explaining about the sites themselves also gave us many insights into Turkish history, culture and society. Overall a value-for-money tour, which is best for a family or small group of people.
We had a great time during this tour! We went to all best sights of cappadoccia and had a free time to spend as we wanted. Our guide Haroun was very helpful , funny and professional and made our tour even better ! Also the food at restaurant was very good also. If we ever come back be sure we will book it again!
Great route with the breathtaking views and the guide, Veysel, was really knowledgeable! Highly recommended.
We did the tour with Mert in English and it was great! He took the time to explain everything very detailed apart from the rest of the group (we were in a with a Turkish speaking tour because we booked very last moment) He is very knowledgeable and answered all our questions, it is definitely recommended to book the tour to understand all the incredible things your eyes are seeing and then take the following days exploring cappadocia on your own of you wish, but the tour was definitely worth the money and time! Thank you Mert!
The bus arrived on time in front of our hotel We were with Donma, very kind, helpful and prepared guide! Everything with a smile! We visited the Fairy Chimneis, other wonderful landscapes of Cappadocia, with Donma's explanations, we went to a fantastic restaurant and at the end we have seen the process of ceramic making. There was also a stop to a handmade jewelry and a particular shop of turkish's national food. Everything was perfect, thank you for the experience! :)
Went with my mom in june, guide explained everything very well. She doesnt speak english, i translated everything and the guide was very patient while i did that. Would totally recommend. Good experience
We had a great tour 😍 and our tour guide Veysel was very helpful. He also took us to a restaurant that had delicious food
The 1 day tour with Veysel was great! We covered a few spots around Cappadocia. Received a prompt confirmation from Mert after making the booking. The whole process was very smooth and convenient. Thanks to both of them for also helping us with the hot air balloon booking at short notice!
I had a great tour with my wife by the amazing tour guide Mr. Veysel. He showed us all the site seeing places in Cappadocia. He even advised us the best food to try as tourists.
The best travel agency in Cappadocia. The tour guide, Burak, was very kind and friendly. He explained everything to us with a big smile despite the cold. I strongly recommend it!
Very expansive tour in cappadocia. we really enjoyed our tour, visited several places. Hiking boots and the right attire is recommended we thank hasan keyifli very mich for a enjoyable tour
We’ve just finished a two days tour in Cappadocia’s most picturesque and enchanting locations. The tour has definitely exceeded all our expectations in terms of locations varieties, money value and affordability, professional planning, passionate guidance, and friendly atmosphere.
Very insightful, informative, personally catered and attentive Experience. Special shout out to Mert (our guide). Thanks for your hospitality and services brother. Keep up the amazing work and experience that you deliver.
We experienced a day trip to Cappadocia on a family red tour. If we went alone, we’d be back without getting to know the finer details of such a beautiful area. Happy to arrive, we chose this tour. We really appreciate Mr. Harun’s energy and had the chance to join other tours too. Some guides leave people alone after five minutes of hiking. Mr. Harun climbed with us everywhere and answered every question with great care. At first, we thought it would be exhausting, but our tour started at 10 p.m. and ended around 2:30 p.m. We couldn’t even see how time passed. We finished the open-air museums early before exploring the sun. We were also pleased with the coffee tasting, pottery workshop, and buffet lunch. Overall, it was a tour recommended by Recommendation.
We took the red tour on 11.01.2025 and were very pleased with the service and the guide, Harun Brah. They provided us with the necessary information on the places we visited, and we had plenty of time to take photos. We were picked up from the hotel and left back at our hotel, and the sublime buffet meals were pretty good.
Mert’s willingness, professionalism and transparency in organizing a tour according to our particular needs (round trip in the same day from Istanbul). The Harun guide very kind and prepared. An interesting tour for cultural and naturalistic aspects. Recommended
Tour súper recomendado, totalmente personalizado , nuestro guía Mert, muy atento, bien informado y dispuesto a compartir todo su conocimiento. El almuerzo delicioso, la entrada a los museos incluida.100 % recomendado.
The hotel we stayed in was very nice, we were satisfied with the tour, it was very adequate, the attention and care was very nice. I recommend it.
We stayed 3 days in Capaddocia and one day in Konya with Bilo and it was a wonderful experience. He knows everything and explains very well. He speaks several languages and is a very nice person! Nis taste very much and we recommend it 100%!
Thank you Ms. Funda and Mr. Mert. The guides on the Cappadocia region tour and ATV tour were friendly and friendly, including the staff at the Ace Hotel where we stayed. Clearly, that’s what matters most to me. There''s no shortage of service, you can choose with confidence and enjoy a beautiful vacation.

Our guide Mert was great! We were lucky and got a private tour from him. It is incredibly worth doing this tour and learning all about the beautiful places. Mert is also very familiar with this, having grown up in this region. He answers all questions and tells a lot of interesting facts about the history of the places. Thank you for the wonderful day!

A very enjoyable trip. Thank you very much to Mr. Sefa Veysel for his explicit and engaging statement
Ihlara valley trip from regional tours caught our eye and we opted for it. We were picked up from our hotel in the morning with the comfortable van. Our tour guide Mr Veysel helped us experience the area with warm welcome, smile and extensive knowledge about the area throughout the entire trip and we had a very nice day.
Thank you very much for your interest and concern. Everything was so good, we had a great time thanks to you
