• 5Day tour

  Our day with Tugba was very nice. You can customize the tour based on your preferences and that was much appreciated. We visited how many different places by the end of the day and it was a great way to see a lot in a short amount of time. Tugba made a good recommendation for lunch as well and we enjoyed our food a lot. Definitely wear comfortable walking shoes as you will be doing a lot of walking!

• 5Highlight of our trip

  The tour guide was the highlight of our Turkey trip. He was incredibly knowledgeable and a joy to talk to. We asked him questions all day about Turkish culture and history, and he gladly answered them. He had amazing information about all of the places he took us. We chose a 9:00 am pickup from our hotel. We told them what we had seen already in Cappadocia and what we wanted to see today. They rearranged the itinerary to fit our interests. We could stay as little or as long as we wanted to at each location. He offered to take pictures all day. They told us that they can drop us off at the hotel whenever we were ready. We did not feel rushed or on a schedule. Around 6:00 pm (18:00) we said we were ready to go back to our hotel. We were able to do everything we wanted that day. The only things that were must-dos for us were Cinar, the ceramics museum, and lunch. They filled in the gaps with view points, a beautiful local coffee shop, and other places. At Cinar and the ceramics museum, the tour guide was familiar with the people at those locations. Our tour guide was friends with the ceramics museum worker, and the worker gave us a private tour of the museum, the showroom, and the back room where the artists make the ceramics. None of the other tourists got to go in the back room. The shuttle was comfortable with air conditioning and free water. The tour guide was absolutely wonderful.

  Tuğba was such an amazing tour guide. She was personable, funny, knew how to take good photos and super knowledgeable. She also gave us options for the day and navigated a custom itinerary that fit our group. She was hands down the highlight of our trip. I highly recommend booking her.

About Goreme

Göreme sits in the heart of Cappadocia, a surreal landscape of fairy chimneys, cave churches and dawn skies filled with hot-air balloons.

Göreme's houses and hotels are carved into soft volcanic rock, and the town is ringed by valleys of cone-shaped fairy chimneys shaped by erosion. The Göreme Open-Air Museum gathers rock-cut monasteries and churches whose frescoes, painted by Byzantine monks, still glow with colour, especially in the Dark Church.

Top-ranked sights in Goreme: Pigeon Valley (Güvercinlik Vadisi), Devrent Valley (Devrent Vadisi), Monks Valley (Pasabag Vadisi).
