Exciting and peaceful tour - Really enjoyed the tour of the Green Tour! Accompanying us was a Russian-speaking guide, Aizada, a nice young smiley girl. She told me everything in detail and interest. At first they drove about an hour to the underground city of Kaymakly. Not many people in the morning. Then we went to the valley of Ikhlar, where we walked along the river for about 1.5 or 2 hours. It wasn't hot, so much shade. At the end of the itinerary, we had lunch in the restaurant. The tables are right in the water, very refreshing. Then they looked at the Selime rock monastery. And finally we came to the observation deck. A fascinating and tireless tour. Everything was very nice!

Best tour experience with Hasan - My girlfriend and I had one of the best experiences EVER going on this full day tour with Hasan in Capadoccia. We visited so many incredible things but the best part about it was Hasan's knowledge of the region and its history, it made the experience much more unique!
