Our Comments and Suggestions

 

Cappadocia is a fantastic and unique area in Central Anatolia. There are daily flight connections from Istanbul to Kayseri, 45 min. drive from the heart of Cappadocia.

 

Once in Cappadocia, you should treat yourself staying in a "Cave" boutique hotel, such as the Museum Hotel, entirely hewn out of the rock and offering the best amenities in a secular structure. Your stay should be a minimum of 3 days, which would allow you to tour the area for 2 days, and enjoy a day wandering into the valleys, and the traditional villages. You can also enjoy some hot air ballooning at sunrise. This is an amazing experience.

 

In the evening, you can view some whirling dervishes ceremony performed in an authentic caravanserai or enjoy a traditional dinner accompanied by a folklore and belli dance show.

 

We aim to show you this area, which is our native area, off the beaten tracks, and we can arrange you to share a lunch with a family in their village home, to hike the valley to discover hidden churches, or to share with you the secret of our chefs through entertaining cooking course and local market shopping. Cappadocia will be for sure, the “once in a lifetime experience”, and the highlight of your Turkish journey.
