4 Days Nemrut, Gobeklitepe & Halfeti Tour from Cappadocia

We’ll depart from Cappadocia in the early morning and begin our scenic journey towards Adiyaman, passing through the beautiful landscapes of Kahramanmaras. Along the way, we’ll enjoy a pleasant break to recharge before continuing our adventure to one of Turkey’s most iconic landmarks—Mount Nemrut.

In the late afternoon, we’ll ascend to the summit of this mystical mountain, once the heart of the ancient Commagene Kingdom. Here, you’ll stand face-to-face with the colossal stone heads of gods and kings, witnessing one of the most magical sunsets imaginable. As the sky turns gold and crimson behind these timeworn statues, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a different era.

After soaking in the beauty and history of Nemrut, we’ll head to our hotel in Kahta for a well-deserved rest. Overnight stay in Kahta/Adiyaman.

After a relaxed breakfast, we’ll set off toward the spiritual heart of southeastern Turkey—Sanliurfa. Our scenic drive includes a short stop near the impressive Ataturk Dam, one of the largest in the region, followed by a visit to the ancient city of Harran. Famous for its beehive-shaped mud-brick houses and age-old city walls, Harran feels like a walk through history itself.

Arriving in Sanliurfa, we’ll enjoy a local meal before exploring one of the city’s most sacred landmarks—the enchanting Pool of Abraham (also known as Balıklıgöl or the Fish Lake). Nearby, we’ll visit the cave believed to be the birthplace of the Prophet Abraham, a site of deep significance for many.

As the day winds down, we’ll check into our hotel in Sanliurfa for a restful evening. Overnight stay in Sanliurfa.

We’ll start the day with a hearty breakfast before heading out to one of the most extraordinary archaeological sites in the world—Gobeklitepe. Considered the oldest known temple complex on Earth, this sacred site predates the pyramids and Stonehenge by thousands of years. As we wander between its massive stone pillars, carved with mysterious symbols and animals, you’ll feel the weight of history in the air.

After taking in this mind-blowing site, we’ll enjoy a delicious local lunch before continuing our journey into Urfa’s rich past. First stop: the Haleplibahce Mosaic Museum, where stunning Roman-era mosaics come to life. Then, we’ll visit the Sanliurfa Archaeology Museum, home to countless ancient treasures, including the famous “Balıklıgöl statue,” one of the oldest life-size human sculptures ever discovered.

After this full day of discovery, we’ll return to the hotel. Overnight stay in Sanliurfa.

Today, we’ll set off toward Gaziantep, with the road leading us to one of Turkey’s most hidden gems—Halfeti. Once a bustling town, much of it now lies peacefully beneath the waters of the Euphrates. We’ll hop on a boat and cruise through this “sunken city,” passing by the partially submerged minaret of the old mosque—an unforgettable scene straight out of a postcard.

After enjoying the calm waters and a flavorful regional lunch along the riverside, we’ll head to the Zeugma Mosaic Museum in Gaziantep. Home to some of the most breathtaking Roman mosaics ever uncovered, this museum is a must-see for art and history lovers alike.
