Lovable horses and dogs - We had a lot of fun. Horses and their dogs accompanied us throughout. Our guides were nice. Church caves was good too. Don't strictly need to do this at sunset time as you aren't going to a sunset point as such. Any time works.

As if I know how to ride a horse! - Very nice experience to be on horseback through the beautiful valley! Well trained horse and attentive guide to ensure all horses are following. Must try. I was worried initially to be on a horse by myself but all horses are well trained and very exciting horse riding experience !

interesting experience - It was nice experience., though a bit scary in the beginning especially for people who had no experience riding a horse. The staffs were friendly and the views were beautiful. They also had cute dogs walking along with us all the way

The Best Part During My Turkiye Trip - It was straightforward. They didn’t really say any instructions. The guide didn’t speak english well but he took care of all of us. He was nice and made sure we were safe. The manager who fetched us spoke english but he wasn’t with us during the ride. We arrived, signed the form, put on the helmet, then one by one rode the horse. There were only 5 of us that day. It definitely is a must do since there are views in Kapadokya that you cannot see when you do tours unless you take this one. The horses were tame and really nice. I loved every minute of it. If you are scared of leading a horse or going through hard passages with a horse, I suggest you pass but if you love to have a bit of an adventure then this is a must try. 😊

Lovely experience with the horses - The horses are obedient and not difficult to control. You have to lean backward or forward, or kick the horses to control the horses. It is a lovely experience to ride the horses and see the sunset with them.

MUST DO EXPERIENCE - Honestly the best part of my holiday. I had many things booked on my trip and horse riding beat them all. The views you get was just magical, it was the first time riding a horse yet I felt comfortable from start to finish. Staff were also very nice and the whole process from booking to pick ups was smooth. Highly recommend

Simply divine. You must do this when in Cappadocia - We went for the sunset tour. It was absolutely divine. We got picked up from the central station promptly, and a quick 3 minute drive landed us at the ranch. We met the owner and our horses, got on, and set off. The horses were very well-behaved even for first time riders (like myself). The rose and red valleys were the places we explored, and the pictures do not do it justice at all. It’s even more beautiful. The horse handlers that came with us were attentive and even took pictures for us. If you’re lucky, some of the dogs that live on the ranch will also come along with you for the ride. You need to do this.

Another must do in Cappadocia - Excellent ranch. Horses are well cared for and only take one ride a day, as are the three dogs that come along for the ride. Views are stunning heading out and heading in. While I would rather ride further into the valleys and for longer, 30 min of the trip is a stop at a cave church where you can have a fresh juice and rest. The church is well preserved and the view from the top is stunning. This ride is more about riding through sunset, not getting to a specific point to see sunset. The staff also stops to take photos at a couple of appropriate points. Lastly, I read the email wrong as to meeting point time. They called me and even provided ranch location via WhatsApp so we could meet them directly there. Could have easily just left without us and we were so appreciative they did not. Highly recommended!

Bad experience - The guide named Mussa was very disrespectful, didn’t provide any instructions or clear guidance. He kept shouting at me in a very rude way infront of everyone. A lady fell off the horse and instead of making sure that she is okay he went angry and made everyone feel uncomfortable and bad. I canceled the return way and kept walking and he never initiate a ride to take me back. Kept walking and lost the way back too. Horrible guide made the experience very poor.
