WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Goreme Panorama
Göreme panoramic viewing point fascinates those who want to watch the beauty of Cappadocia and the sunrise and sunset with its generosity. The most practical way to enjoy the beauty of the Cappadocia valleys, the uniqueness of the fairy chimneys and the balloons that add color to the sky is to go to the panoramic viewpoint of Göreme. The panoramic viewing point, which welcomes those who want to relax with an insatiable view, is quite crowded
2. Uchisar Castle
UCHISAR is a troglodyte village situated 4 km east of Göreme. It is famous for the huge rock formation once used as a fortification. This extraordinary rock is the highest peak in the region and offers a magnificent panoramic view of the whole of Cappadocia with Mt. Erciyes in the distance.Most rooms in the castle are connected to each other with stairs, tunnels and passages. At the entrances of many rooms, there are millstone doors, just like the ones in the underground settlements, used to control access to these places. Due to erosion it is unfortunately not possible to reach all the rooms. Most of the rooms, located on the north side of the castle are still in use as pigeon houses (dovecotes) today. Farmers used these pigeon houses to collect the droppings of pigeons which is an excellent natural fertilizer for the orchards and vineyards
3. Goreme Open-Air Museum
The Goreme Open Air Museum is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the Cappadocia region of Turkey. It is a complex of rock-cut churches, chapels, monasteries, and other religious buildings that date back to the 10th, 11th, and 12th centuries. The Goreme Open Air Museum was originally a Byzantine monastic settlement, and the buildings were carved into the natural rock formations of the area. The frescoes and artwork inside the churches and chapels depict scenes from the Bible and provide a unique insight into the religious life of the region during the Byzantine era. The museum consists of several sections, including the Tokali Church, the Karanlik Church, the Elmali Church, and the Yilanli Church. Visitors can explore the museum and see the impressive architecture and artwork that have been preserved for centuries.
4. Pasabag
Pasabag Valley, also known as Monks Valley, is a unique valley located in the Cappadocia region of Turkey. It is known for its unusual rock formations, which are shaped like cones and are referred to as "fairy chimneys." The fairy chimneys in Pasabag Valley were formed as a result of volcanic activity and erosion over millions of years. The soft volcanic rock was eroded away, leaving behind tall, slender columns of rock topped with larger, mushroom-shaped caps. Pasabag Valley is a popular tourist destination in Cappadocia and is known for its stunning natural beauty. Visitors can explore the valley and see the unique rock formations up close. The valley is also home to several cave dwellings and chapels that were carved into the rock formations by early Christian monks.
5. Pigeon Valley
Pigeon Valley, also known as Guvercinlik Vadisi, is a picturesque valley located in the Cappadocia region of Turkey. It is named after the many pigeon houses carved into the rock formations in the valley, which were used to collect pigeon droppings for fertilizer. Pigeon Valley is a popular hiking destination in Cappadocia, offering stunning views of the unique rock formations and the surrounding valleys. The hiking trail through the valley is relatively easy and takes around 2-3 hours to complete, with several scenic viewpoints along the way. Pigeon Valley is a must-see destination for visitors to Cappadocia, offering beautiful scenery, unique cultural heritage, and an enjoyable hiking experience.
6. Avanos
Avanos is a small town located in the Cappadocia region of Turkey, famous for its pottery and ceramics. It is situated on the banks of the Kizilirmak River, which has played an important role in the town's history and economy. The town's history dates back to the Hittite period, and it has been an important center for pottery and ceramics for thousands of years. Today, Avanos is home to many pottery workshops and studios, where visitors can watch artisans at work and purchase handmade pottery and ceramics.

9. Kaymakli Underground City
Kaymakli Underground City is an ancient subterranean city located in the Cappadocia region of Turkey. It is one of the largest and best-preserved underground cities in the region and dates back to the Hittite period around 2000 BC. The city was carved into the soft volcanic rock and extends over eight levels, with a depth of up to 85 meters. It was used as a place of refuge by the local people during times of conflict and invasion, providing shelter and protection from the enemy. The city has many unique features, including ventilation shafts, kitchens, stables, storage rooms, and even a church. The ventilation shafts were used to provide fresh air to the underground city, and the kitchens and storage rooms were used to store food and supplies.
10. Ihlara Valley
The valley was probably first inhabited in the 4th century AD, initially by hermits and priests as a place of solitude; but the natural defences of the gorge attracted new converts to Christianity, some fleeing persecution by the Romans.
11. Belisirma
Belisirma is a gifted village thanks to its location. The landscape is more forgiving around Belisirma. As a result, Cappadocians built the village from the top to the bottom of the Ihlara Valley. That creates a scene full of cute little stone houses scattered to the slopes of Ihlara Valley. Even if the houses look very tiny from a distance, each house reaches a big cave system in thunder ground carved into the natural volcanic tuff. The houses are reaching the bottom of the valley where you can find many restaurants established right by the water.
12. Selime Monastery
Selime monastery is the biggest religious building in Cappadocia with a cathedral-size church. Inside the cathedral there are two rows of rock columns. These columns divide the cathedral into three sections. The size of the church is astonishing. The columns and arches of the church, cut directly from the tuff within the Selime monastery, still bear the tell-tale markings of various generations that once occupied it. Rudimentary icons from the early days can be seen more clearly, but detailed frescoes, painted later, are barely visible under the years of soot that covers the surfaces from when the Turks used the room for cooking.
13. Fairy Chimneys
Fairy chimneys are unique rock formations that are found in the Cappadocia region of Turkey. They are tall and slender columns of volcanic tuff, topped with a larger rock that protects the column from erosion. Fairy chimneys were formed over millions of years through a process of erosion and volcanic activity. They are found in various shapes and sizes, some reaching up to 40 meters tall, and have been a popular tourist attraction in the region for centuries. The local people of Cappadocia have also carved these fairy chimneys into homes, churches, and monasteries for centuries. These cave dwellings provided shelter from harsh weather conditions and served as a refuge during times of conflict. Today, many of the fairy chimneys in Cappadocia have been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site and are a popular tourist attraction.

2024年6月に、カッパドキアで2日間、運転手と日本語ガイド付きのプライベートツアーに参加しました。

ガイドさんはガイド歴20年以上で、日本語もかなり流暢で、信頼できる方でした。

カッパドキアには初期のキリスト教徒が多く住んでいたため、数々の洞窟教会や、教会を装飾する壁画などが残っており、様々な教会を訪れたいとガイドさんと相談しました。

1日目はギョレメ周辺でレッドツアーの主要な見どころを回ってもらいました。混載ツアーにありがちな、お土産購入タイムの強制はなく、興味深い見所を時間いっぱい効率的に回ることができました。プランは基本ガイドさんにお任せしましたが、カッパドキアのハイライトを一通り見ることができ、とても満足のいくものでした。

洞窟教会に興味があるという相談をしたところ、こちらの意図を汲んでいただき、2日目は元々のプランを変更して、教会と壁画ツアーをアレンジしてもらいました。ガイドさんは様々な教会を熟知されており、若干マイナーなエリアですが、ソーアンル渓谷や、その周辺のガイドブックにはない教会を沢山案内してもらいました。

また、事前に調べて興味のあった教会に行きたいと希望したところ、かなりの悪路にも関わらず訪問していただきました。これは専用車と、腕のよいドライバーがいないと不可能な行程だったと思います。

各ポイントでの集合時間も相談しながら決められるので、自分のペースで楽しむことができました。素晴らしい景色に出会ったとき、気の済むまでゆっくり味わうことができるのは、混載ツアーにはない特権だと思います。

このツアーを通して、カッパドキアを深く楽しむことができました。お任せプランでももちろんいいですが、自分でテーマを持って探索したい人や、より深くこの地を理解したい人にとっては、このツアーはかなりよい選択肢になるかと思います。おすすめです。

Having Tarik as our tour guide for both the red and green regions was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable about the interesting history related to the places we visited in the goreme open air museum and the Kaymakli underground city, and we were also able to take many wonderful photos with the fairy chimneys! Tarik was very flexible with the tour and let us spend a lot of time at each location, we would highly recommend hiring him as a tour guide! I would only say that when visiting the pottery workshop, it is worth it to see how the pots are made, but all the pottery is priced up almost more than 5 times the market price. The jewelry and leather shop are optional and we opted to go, though I feel that it was a bit of a waste of time.
