Activity itinerary

Goreme Panorama
  • 35m
Our day begins with a breathtaking view from Göreme Panorama, offering a perfect introduction to Cappadocia’s surreal landscape. Here, you’ll see the iconic fairy chimneys, sweeping valleys, and the village of Göreme nestled among the rocks. Your guide will share the story of how these formations were created and point out the key landmarks you’ll explore throughout the day. This is also a great photo stop, so have your cameras ready!
Pigeon Valley
  • 35m
Discover the unique beauty of Pigeon Valley, named after the countless pigeon houses carved into the soft volcanic rock by locals over centuries. I will explain how pigeons were once vital to the region — used for fertilizer and communication. The scenic viewpoint offers sweeping views of the valley’s dramatic landscape, ideal for photos and a short nature walk.
Uchisar Castle
  • 35m
Explore the highest point in Cappadocia: Uçhisar Castle. This towering rock fortress offers panoramic views over the entire region. I will explain the strategic importance of the castle throughout history, its use as a watchtower, and how people once lived inside its carved chambers. A short hike to the top is optional but highly recommended for amazing photo opportunities.
Kaymakli Underground City
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Step into the depths of history at Kaymaklı Underground City, one of Cappadocia’s largest and most impressive subterranean complexes. Carved entirely by hand, this multi-level city once sheltered thousands of people during invasions. I will lead you through narrow tunnels, storage rooms, kitchens, and ancient churches, while explaining how early Christians survived underground for months. It’s a fascinating glimpse into Cappadocia’s hidden world
Belisirma
  • 1h
Enjoy a relaxing lunch in the peaceful village of Belisırma, nestled along the banks of the Melendiz River. Here, you’ll dine at a riverside restaurant, often on wooden platforms set right above the water — a perfect setting to rest, refresh, and take in the sounds of nature. Traditional Turkish dishes and vegetarian options are available.
Ihlara Valley
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Take a scenic hike through the lush Ihlara Valley, a canyon formed by volcanic activity and carved by the Melendiz River over thousands of years. Along the trail, you’ll visit rock-cut churches adorned with early Christian frescoes and learn about the monks who once lived and meditated here. The peaceful nature, flowing water, and dramatic cliffs make this a refreshing and spiritual part of the tour.
Selime Monastery
  • 1h
Visit Selime Monastery, the largest rock-cut religious complex in Cappadocia. This stunning structure features a cathedral, monk quarters, kitchens, and stables — all carved directly into the fairy chimneys. I will explain how the monastery once served both as a spiritual center and a shelter against invasions. With its panoramic views over the Ihlara Valley and surreal rock formations, Selime is a perfect finale to your day.
