2-Day Cappadocia Tour From Istanbul Itinerary
We will meet at your hotel lobby and transfer you to the airport for your flight from Istanbul to Cappadocia. Upon arrival to Cappadocia, we will meet just outside the airport at the arrival’s gate with a sign bearing your name. After that, you will be transferred to tour starting point.
Our first day will begin with a visit to Devrent Valley where various types of fairy chimneys are abundant. We will walk through this amazing valley.
Thereafter visit Pasabagi (Monk's Valley) with multiple stems and caps, peculiar to this area. After visiting Pasabagi, drive to Avanos which is known for the pottery, a craft dating back to the Hittite period. The red clay which is worked by local craftsmen comes from the residue in the Kizilirmak River, the longest river of Turkey.
Further to the time for lunch proceed to Goreme Open Air Museum (Dark Church is excluded; entrance requires additional admission fee) to visit the churches, chapels and monasteries carved into the fairy chimneys from the 10th to the 13th centuries with frescos painted on the walls.
Thereafter we will take our time to capture some photos of the neighboring valleys. Then, we will transfer you back to your hotel in Cappadocia.
First we visit to Rose Valley, one of the most beautiful trekking valleys in Cappadocia, and explore the famous rock- cut churches by hiking through the valley. Rest in Cavusin, an old Greek village, known for its Christian houses and churches.
After having time for lunch visit Ortahısar Castle, similar to Uchisar Castle in style, where storage caves can also be observed. In the afternoon visit Kaymakli (or Ozkonak) Underground City where early Christians lived in fear and faith. On the way back visit to panoramic Pigeon Valley where pigeons contributed to the lives of locals with their manure to fertilize the vineyards. You may also like to taste Cappadocia wine in a local winery.
After our last visit, we will drive to Cappadocia Airport for your flight to Istanbul. Once there, we will meet in the same way and transfer you to your hotel, concluding our 2-day Cappadocia tour from Istanbul.
