Fab trip - Had an amazing time on the tour. Guides were very knowledgeable and the busses were great. Went to see handmade pottery and learnt about rug making as well as seeing lots of the region. Hotel we stayed in (in a cave) was awesome. Wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again

It was exactely was I was expecting - I had this tour in October 2019 and I was extreamely pleased with it. The 2-day combined tour covered all main objectives in the region, in a convenient way. The touf guide was very competent, kind and willing to help. We had extensive knowledge about the underground cities we visited. Btw, underground cities and ballooning (balloon isn't included in this tour) are 2 must-do in Cappadocia and in lifetime. The organisation of the tour was perfect and I enjoyed a lot the tour. I highly recommend to everybody.
