Itinerary:

We will pick you up from your hotel in-between 09:00 and 09:30 and depart for our full day Classic Cappadocia Tour.

Our first stop will be visiting the Devrent Valley which reveals many different rock formations and small fairy chimneys that form a lunar landscape or moonscape by their strange look. By walking through this amazing valley, you will also see animal-like rock formations that look like a sculpture zoo created by nature. Our tour will continue on to Pasabagi (Monk’s Valley) which contains some of the most striking fairy chimneys in Cappadocia with twin and triple rock caps. This shape is unique for Cappadocia where these fairy chimneys are named ‘mushroom-shaped fairy chimneys’. After visiting Pasabagi, we will drive to Avanos which is known for its world-renowned pottery, a craft dating back to the Hittite period.

The red clay which is worked by local craftsmen comes from the residue of the Kizilirmak river, the longest river in Turkey.

After having the lunch in a local restaurant in Avanos we will continue our tour visiting the Goreme Open Air Museum. You will visit the churches, chapels and monasteries carved into the fairy chimneys from the 10^th to 13^thcenturies A.D. with frescos painted on the walls.

You will have ample time to take photo in the neighboring valleys before we transfer you to your hotel.
