Our guide Ínan was... - Our guide Ínan was wonderful. He took so many amazing photos and made sure we were taken care of. We were new to riding, especially a saddle without a pommel, and they gave great instructions. We were able to communicate well with a translate app.

You MUST do this while in Cappadocia - Incredible experience! I did not want to leave my horse because she was honestly the sweetest girl. The route we took was so lovely and the sunset views were incredible. The horses were very well trained, easy for first timers! Eric was very helpful in assisting with our reservation! Definitely recommend this tour!

A beautiful and unforgettable walk - The tour took place peacefully. The guides did not speak English but made an effort through apps to communicate with us. The tour takes place in a fairly slow march, all wearing helmets, the guides walking alongside the horses and 1 of them riding on a younger and faster horse to assist on the way. One of them noticed that I was riding fairly well and suggested going out with the horse to walk faster but with the care of always being with me. I had the opportunity to ride a good horse. There was one of the animals that I think was already older and was not comfortable to finish the ride, but they seemed careful with the animal. I didn't give 5 stars because I'd rather the horse hadn't been mounted again. I hope they don't put him back on track. I realized that they have other horses and probably do not use them on trails at other times, allowing rest. The language limitation did not allow me to have more information on this. I hope I can get some feedback about this here by the trip advisor. The way to the place to see the balloons is very beautiful, a very nice silence, besides the caves and hills, some fields. Om flowers on the way. It was cold because we left early, I suggest the next travellers to bring gloves if they are not used to the cold as is my case. Also, if there is a possibility to ride a little faster, knowing that you will return dirty from the ground, is expected! The place for Photos was really beautiful. The guides take good and thousands of photos.

Great ride, but don't expect quick replies in TripAdvisor - The horse ride itself was great, but the reservation process was a bad experience for me so I can't give it 5 stars. I wrote multiple times and waited for a response for 3 months regarding whether we can be picked up in Çavuşin and what valleys will be included? In the end I was about to cancel the tour but luckily found that one of the hotels in Çavuşin is also listed among the pickup locations and picked that one. The selection to enter your own address as a pickup location doesn't recognize any addresses in Cappadocia, so I couldn't use that option. Regarding the valleys turned out that this ride takes place in the Clay valley aka White valley.
