What you'll experience

Leave Izmir for Cappadocia's valleys, fairy chimneys, and underground cities without juggling separate tickets. This 3-day Cappadocia tour from Izmir includes flexible flights, two nights in a cave or stone hotel, two guided sightseeing days, and airport meet-up in the region. If a direct flight is unavailable, a connected flight via Istanbul can be arranged to keep the program smooth.

A light arrival day leaves time to settle in, and the guided north follows with Pasabag, Zelve, an Avanos pottery workshop and Uchisar Castle, seen from outside. Rose Valley, Cavusin and Pigeon Valley come on the final day before the return flight, a good fit for travellers pairing the Aegean coast with central Anatolia.

  1. 09:00 - Pick up from your hotel.

    After breakfast, our team will pick you up from your hotel and transfer you to the first tour route of the package.

    Pickup time may change.

First Cappadocia Tour Route

Devrent Valley (Pink Valley) → Pasabag Open Air Museum → Avanos Pottery Workshop → Goreme Panoramic View → Zelve Open Air Museum → Uchisar Castle (exterior view)

Briefing

  • Devrent Valley (Pink Valley): One of Cappadocia's quietest stops, Devrent Valley rewards slow walkers who take time to study each column from different angles.

  • Pasabag Open Air Museum: While Goreme Open Air Museum focuses on cave churches, Pasabag specializes in the rock formations themselves, making the two very different experiences.

  • Avanos Pottery Workshop: Avanos Pottery Workshop is a fixed stop on every Cappadocia Red Tour, giving visitors direct access to one of Turkey's oldest artisan traditions.

  • Goreme Panoramic View: Uchisar Castle offers height, but Goreme Panoramic View delivers width, a wide-angle sweep of the valley that puts the entire landscape in context.

  • Zelve Open Air Museum: Zelve's volcanic tuff walls stay cool to the touch even on the hottest days, making clear why Cappadocian families preferred carved rock over built structures.

  • Uchisar Castle (exterior view): Uchisar is the largest of Cappadocia's castle rocks, taller and more dramatic than Ortahisar or any individual fairy chimney on the Red Tour route.

  1. 17:00 - Transfer back to your hotel.

    After the first Cappadocia tour ends, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Cappadocia.

    Pickup time may change.

Second Cappadocia Tour Route

Red Valley → Rose Valley (Gulludere Valley) → Cavusin Village → Pigeon Valley → Underground City

Briefing

  • Red Valley: Exploring Red Valley on foot puts you face-to-face with rock formations taller than a five-story building, carved purely by weather and time.

  • Rose Valley (Gulludere Valley): Dozens of small cave openings are carved into Rose Valley's cliff faces, remnants of homes, storage rooms, and chapels used over many centuries.

  • Cavusin Village: Explore Cavusin Village in the early morning before the larger crowds arrive, and you can enjoy its winding stone lanes in a calmer atmosphere.

  • Pigeon Valley: Pigeon Valley stretches for several kilometers between Uchisar and Goreme, making it one of the longest and most dramatic canyon walks in Cappadocia.

  • Underground City: Narrow sealed passages and massive rolling stone doors in Cappadocia's underground city make its ancient builders feel remarkably present and human.

  1. 17:00 - Transfer to the airport.

    After the second Cappadocia tour ends, you will be transferred to the airport for your return flight.

  2. Flexible - Flight back to Izmir.

    Your return flight to Izmir will be arranged according to availability. If a direct flight is unavailable, a connected flight via Istanbul can be arranged.

Flew from Izmir to Cappadocia and it was so easy. Three days gave us time for everything - Goreme museum, underground city, Ihlara Valley, and I added the balloon ride which was incredble. Cave hotel was cozy and unique. Our guide Serkan was really friendly and his explanations of the early Christian history in the cave churches were so detailed.
