Uchisar Castle
UCHISAR is a troglodyte village situated 4 km east of Göreme. It is famous for the huge rock formation once used as a fortification. This extraordinary rock is the highest peak in the region and offers a magnificent panoramic view of the whole of Cappadocia with Mt. Erciyes in the distance.Most rooms in the castle are connected to each other with stairs, tunnels and passages. At the entrances of many rooms, there are millstone doors, just like the ones in the underground settlements, used to control access to these places. Due to erosion it is unfortunately not possible to reach all the rooms. Most of the rooms, located on the north side of the castle are still in use as pigeon houses (dovecotes) today. Farmers used these pigeon houses to collect the droppings of pigeons which is an excellent natural fertilizer for the orchards and vineyards

Fairy Chimneys
Fairy chimneys are unique rock formations that are found in the Cappadocia region of Turkey.

Traveller reviews
Mehmet was our guide and he is very kind and considerate, helping my elderly mother the whole time. He took us to all the major sightseeing spots and gave us professional explanations on what we are seeing and information about their local culture. We had a really enjoyable day.
This tour is amazing. Handan our tour guide is very good. She is also very patient with our request and accommodating to anything we need. We really recommend her.
Mehmet was an outstanding guide who’s answered shares his knowledge and insight throughout the trip. His engaging style and humour made the trip even more enjoyable.
Ebru was an excellent tour guide! We messaged the night before to discuss the points we wanted to hit, and she accommodated everything perfectly. She took us on a beautiful hike in the Rose Valley, then we did the open air museum, and then viewed some of the castles and cave churches. Her and the driver were on time, professional, and kind. We had a great time and I would highly recommend doing a tour with Ebru! 💛
**Excellent private Cappadocia tour, highly recommend** We booked this full-day private tour for our family (2 adults, kids aged 6 and 15) and couldn't be happier. Our driver Mehmet was polite and professional the whole day. Our guide Salina was fantastic, really accommodating when we asked to tweak the itinerary to suit our family. The standout was the underground city. It's impressive on its own, but having Salina explain the history and how it all worked made it so much better, honestly worth doing the tour just for this with a good guide. We'd already done the open air museum ourselves the day before, so we asked to skip it, and Salina was happy to adjust the plan around that. Great value, well organised, and flexible. Would book again.
The tour went very well, it was fast paced, all sites are nearby, no long driving (mostly were no more than 30 min driving between sites). Our guide Mali is great, very professional, paced our route well; and driver Halil is great and on time. One complaint- it was advertised to go to Avanos, but it never happened (and no substitute) - reality is there is no more time for another stop, but why advertised if it is not happening, someone may rely on the description of the itinerary to book the tour so it has to be accurate.
this was perfect for our family of four- who usually are quite skeptical about tours We did essentially the green tour because we had already done the ATV sunset tour and the morning sunrise balloon ride, which essentially covers most of the red tour. this allowed us to getaway from the crowd filled areas of the Cappadocia region that most people don’t see. Our tour guide was flexible and met us at 9:30 AM at the hotel with the driver. And we were out until 5:30 PM but the day was relaxed; we did a hike, saw cave monasteries, cave homes, underground cities with the experience and knowledge of Giza, our tour guide. She knew all of the history and practical information about the areas. she was clearly an expert and enjoyed what she did. She understood the desires of our group and knew when to move faster or slower, depending on our interest. There is no way I would’ve learned 1/4 as much information about this area without her along with us. Her English was excellent and she had a great sense of patience and emotional IQ. My husband, who is very reluctant about tour guides was extremely appreciative. She kept my two teenage daughters engaged as well. I’m really glad we did a private tour that I would highly recommend requesting Giza. Additionally, our driver was on time, drive very safely and had an amazing clean and luxurious feeling can with good AC.
The full day Cappadoccia tour was excellent and our family thoroughly enjoyed this informative tour. Our tour guide, Esma Guler, was extremely nice, personable and knowledgeable. She catered the tour to our needs and was flexible with the times and options provided. Thank you Esma for making this tour memorable. It will be something to remember and cherish.
