Cappadocia tour with museums an underground city and great scenery - Our tour with Ezgi included exploring an underground city, Goreme Open Air Museum, various scenic views, lunch and a walk across a fun suspension bridge over the re river. Ezgi was extremely knowledgeable and very accommodating. If we asked a question that she didn’t know she would look up the answer for us and we’d quickly find out. Our driver was also great. We’d highly recommend this tour

Mert (tour guide) Red tour in cappadocia - My family and I had a private tour with tour guide Mert. (Please forgive incorrect spellings) The tour was amazing. Mert initially took us to a viewpoint of the whole of cappadocia where we saw uchisar castle. Mert explained the historical and chemical formations of the area alongside importance of pigeons possible civilisation. We then progressed to open air museums (pasa ba), every time Mert went into the etymology helping us understand. I was able to climb up to a second story this was not done by others without a tour guide. Every area was explained in detail. With cultural, historical, social elements explained. We then progressed to the 3rd location a pottery studio set in caves. It was air conditioned and all hand made with 5 different masters for a single pottery piece, every item was 1 of 1. I even got the opportunity to do some pottery very exciting. We then ate lunch. Mert made sure to plan the schedule around how we felt throughout the day. We then progressed to the monks valley where we also received religious facts throughout. At any areas that were slightly dangerous Mert would always help us walk past safely always putting the safety of us first taking us to shaded areas and allowing us to rest when the sun was too bright whilst still explaining the significance of the are we stopped at. We then were able to go to middle castle ( I forgot how to pronounce it) for a skyline view of the Grecian village it was very beautiful. Throughout all stops Mert took photos for us. Especially through this viewpoint as there were designated photo areas. Mert then very kindly extend the tour for 2 extra locations a jewellery store specialising in Turkish stones and a traditional Turkish market. It is very clear that Mert is very passionate about being a tour guide and the facts he was giving was not only informative but very interesting, from religion, culture, social, historical to chemical he had all the knowledge. He was a fabulous tour guide providing us with energy literally ( gave us snacks) and figuratively. He really made the cappadocia experience. Honeslty very much recommend.

Recommended - We did the red and the blue tour with Nevzat GÜNDÜZ. Fantastic guide. Enthusiastic, helpful, flexible and knowledgeable. Also did the green tour. Too bad we didn't make a stop at Selime's.

Day tour with Sefa - Honestly the whole trip has been out of this world but our guide today, Sefa, went above and beyond to make sure we were enjoying ourselves while still giving us a very thorough tour of the city. Definitely 10/10 recommend this company and if you can ask for Sefa he will make your trip 1000 times better, you won’t regret it!

Very good tour -- bring your own snacks and water - Very good tour, guide was super informative. The locations were awesome and we really enjoyed visiting each one. This tour does not go to Goreme open air museum, so we ended up doing that the next day on our own...but that worked out well because we got more time there. Lunch was amazing, our own private room at a very nice restaurant. Our only complaint is that it seemed like a low priority as we didn't eat until ~3pm. We were on a red tour but had some folks on the bus doing a mix...so it seemed to throw off the schedule. Tours should be dedicated red or green if doing a mix will delay lunch like that.
