Gabriella –
The Cappadocia Yellow Tour was an incredible journey through one of the most unique regions in the world. The Pasabag Monks Valley was mesmerizing, with its tall fairy chimneys and surreal landscape. Devrent Valley was equally impressive, with rock formations resembling various animals and objects. The Zelve Open-Air Museum was a fascinating stop, and it was amazing to see how people once lived in the cave dwellings. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable, making the experience even more enjoyable. I loved how the tour combined natural beauty with rich historical insights. This is definitely a tour I would recommend to anyone visiting Cappadocia!
