2.LET’S GO HİKİNG TO DİSCOVER CAPPADOCİA..

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 70 reviews · 7.5 hours · from $102

Spend about 7.5 hours hiking 15 km through Cappadocia with local guide Halil. Walk from Uçhisar through White, Love, Red, and Rose Valleys, visit cave homes, pigeon houses, hidden churches, Çavuşin, and possibly Paşabağ. Pickup, lunch, water, juice, snacks, and a small group of up to eight are included.

“This was one of the best days of our vacation! Our guide shared so much about Turkish history and culture and showed us spots we never would have found on our own. I was on the fence about doing this hike because I haven’t done one quite this long before, but we took enough breaks and he provided lots of snacks and water. This hike is gorgeous and not overly difficult for more of a beginner like me, but still enough of a challenge for more experienced hikers like my husband. The lunch was great, and he even gave us a gift for our honeymoon. I highly recommend that you…”
