With the effect of the sunlight, they turn pinkish. People also called here Imagination Valley because of the unusual shapes of stones and fairy chimneys.
- Paşabağ (Monks) Valley: This valley is rich enough to offer you kind of an exhibition about the first fairy chimney formations. Because of the churches built by monks, the valley is also known as the Priest-Monks Valley. The fairy chimneys in this valley are the most prominent in Cappadocia. Each fairy chimney is several times the length of human height.
- Avanos: We will go to a pottery workshop. If you wish, you can also make a pot for yourself. When you make pottery, knowledgeable people will help and guide you. You may have to pay extra if you want to make pots yourself (no obligation).
- Open Air Museum: It is one of the valuable museums. The museum can be defined as a large religious area with many dining halls, churches, and monasteries. The whole area is designated as a significant religious ritual.

The wind blowing hard has caused these rocks to sharpen from time to time. The view of the valley is awe-inspiring at sunrise and sunset. Photographing from a point overlooking the area a little overhead can make a beautiful view immortal.
- Rose Valley: About 5 kilometers from the Red Valley, a perfect valley will be waiting for you. Rose Valley fascinates people who visit Cappadocia with its many features. The most important part of the valley is that it has a long route for trekking. You will be able to examine natural history closely and enjoy trekking. Rose Valley is one of the regions with perfect views during sunset and sunrise.

These travertines are stacked on top of each other due to the deposition of vitamins and minerals in them. Nowadays, these superimposed structures have reached an extensive mountain view.
- Cleopatra Antique Pool: It is believed that Cleopatra was once bathed in this ancient pool in Pamukkale. That’s why this pool is called Cleopatra. There are 15 more ancient pools around the building. The effect of travertines forms these pools, and they have plenty of mineral ratios.

We were looking for a tour of Cappadocia and Pamukkale in our short vacation in Turkey, Toursce Turkey agency recommended we do this 3-day tour from Istanbul. We spent lovely two days in the Cappadocia region and got to do the balloon ride which was amazing. Then continue to Pamukkale by intercity overnight bus and we got to see Pamukkale. Pamukkale was so beautiful. My family is so happy they suggested this program. Once we booked with them the tour online, they handled everything in a short time. We got an itinerary with flight tickets, hotels, daily tours, and airport transfers booked an hour later. They were so helpful to us and really professional. We had a great time on the tours. Highly recommend them.

We did three-day activities from Istanbul to Cappadocia to Pamukkale and we had the best experiences. We had the best customer experience with Tuna. We will surely recommend this travel company and use them in the future. Our adventure trips were the best in Turkey.

I took two trips with them to the Cappadocia area with my family which was a group of seven and a day trip to Pammukale. Both trips were excellent. Cappadocia Tour: Our flight was to Cappadocia was delayed from Istanbul by about an hour but once we reached the Cappadocia our driver was waiting for us there with a huge smile. Our tour guide was very friendly & informative and also was happy to answer any of the participant questions that we had. The visiting sights that we saw were beautiful. They were provided us with accommodation in one of the cave hotels which was very unique. The air balloon flight is an experience that is not to be missed. Pamukkale Tour: the tour was really good something worth doing. After the trip was finished I had a flight to catch to Istanbul. All in all, we were very happy with the service provided by Toursce travel group Turkey. The travel consultant was helpful in arranging for all the accommodation/tours/land transfers and all the tickets and even helping us with stuff that I didn’t expect him to. We highly recommend them!

Our Cappadocia tour package took us from Istanbul, down the center of Anatolia, and then west of Turkey. The highlights of the tour were the unusual landscape of Cappadocia and Pamukkale. Four of us took early morning hot air balloon rides to view the unique formations in the Cappadocia and Pamukkale regions. Hot air balloon tours were awesome in Pamukkale and Cappadocia. It was a privilege to watch the unique view from the balloon. We came back from Turkey with sights that surprised us, and adventures that provided us with enough memories for years to come. This tour was one of the very best international travel vacations that we have ever taken. We would recommend the tour company to anyone who wants to spend time getting to know this beautiful country.

We had no idea how to plan our trip from Istanbul to Cappadocia and Pamukkale then Istanbul again. But Tuna and Toursce helped us to have a great time in Turkey. They have arranged everything very well and that was a hassle free smooth journey. We got to explore the best in the Cappadocia area and white Pamukkale with the best services. If you are fine with a night bus ride from Cappadocia to Pamukkale and looking for a budgeted tour this is the perfect option for a short vacation. This program can be possible by flight but there is a flight through Istanbul to Pamukkale. We slept on the night bus and save money. I would like to thank toursce for making our Turkey tour a memorable one. Great job guys. Highly recommended! Totally worth!
