- Cavusin Village - Çavuşin is among the oldest settlements in Cappadocia, renowned for its ancient rock dwellings and churches carved into the cliffs. The village provides an intriguing glimpse into local history and the daily life of centuries past.
From the viewpoint, visitors can observe the remnants of the old Greek village, meandering narrow streets, and stunning views over the Rose and Red Valleys.

Avanos - Relish a buffet-style lunch in Avanos, featuring a diverse selection of Turkish cuisine including mezes, salads, meat and vegetarian dishes, and desserts.
While still in Avanos, explore a genuine family-operated pottery workshop situated in an underground cave. Clay from the Kızılırmak (Red) River was initially used in pottery making by the Hittites before 1700 BC and remains an art form today. Watch a master potter demonstrate the craft, and observe the painters and glazers as they apply intricate patterns. Try your hand at the potter’s wheel and create your own unique pot if desired. - Pasabag - In Paşabağı (also known as Monks Valley due to the Chapel of Saint Simeon located there), wander among the unique clusters of multi-headed mushroom-shaped “fairy chimneys” (rock formations).
- Devrent Valley - Devrent Valley (“Imagination Valley”) is a breathtaking valley where visitors can spot natural rock formations in various recognizable shapes, including the famous camel-shaped rock. Use your imagination to discover other shapes.
- Zelve Open Air Museum - At the Zelve Open Air Museum, the guide will explain the significance of Christianity and monastic life in Cappadocia before allowing you to explore the 10th and 11th-century cave churches and monasteries, adorned with beautifully painted frescoes depicting famous biblical scenes.
