カッパドキア・レッドツアー（ゴレメまたはゼルヴェ野外博物館付き）

This small group guided tour was well worth it, and I recommend to anyone interested in learning more about the Cappadocia area. We reserved a van for the 6 of us, and it was great to not have to share the guided tour with strangers. I appreciate that our tour guide,Mr. Uygar, arranged to have a more accommodating van for us than the one that was originally assigned to our group. He worked with us in tailoring the itinerary to what we preferred: Open Air Museum, Pigeon Valley, a local cave home and shop, a pottery demonstration (with the predictable shoping experience attached, but that was fine), Avanos and a great viewing site for some of the more visually stunning “fairy chimneys”. We were never rushed nor did we think we lingered too long at any given site. Our guide was very flexible with our preferences, and it made the whole experience that much more comfortable and easy. He also gave an excellent recommendation for us to visit the “Old Greek House” in Mustafapasa on our way out of town. Apparently this place is well known, but we’d never heard of it, so it was great that he recommended it for lunch. All in all, this was a great idea and it made the most of our visit.

Don't waste your time with this company. Made the booking, no communication about the pick up. Didn't turn up to pick me up and I had to contact them via the hotel service and they sent a driver to pick me up and drop me off at a different location with a different tour guide with a totally different itinerary and when I refused, they finally contacted me via WhatsApp to offer a private guide. By this time, half a day was wasted. Really unprofessional service.

We had such a wonderful day on this tour. Our guide, Alp, was absolutely amazing. He is so knowledgeable about the area and you can tell how passionate he is about his job. He showed us the magic of Goreme and surrounding areas, the open air museum, and some gorgeous fairy chimneys. The visit to the carpet and pottery shops were actually very welcome. It was fun seeing how these beautiful crafts are made up close and there was no pressure to buy anything (though we did anyway!). It was nice to visit and not be intimidated, as well as to know you are buying the best quality items. The lunch was a miss for us, but not a big deal. Overall the day was perfect, and we feel like we gained some knowledge on this beautiful area thanks to Alp.

Although we did not have the best weather Ali made it fun. He was well informed, funny and friendly. He engaged the entire group. We would book another trip with Ali when we return. Cons; The restaurant we went to was not good. Did not enjoy the food and when you enter the restaurant there was a terrible smell of urine and realized that is where the rest rooms are located.

Had a fantastic day with our guide Ali. Since we came in December our small group tour ended up being a private tour, which was a great experience. I think December is a good time to visit because there’s not a lot of people at the attractions and you can really take your time and not jostle for space. The weather is brisk but not cold and not hot like it would be in summer. Ali was informative and fun and told us a lot about the history and culture of the region as we went around exploring all the stunning views and historical sites. He also helped us book an alternate balloon because our original one was cancelled due to weather - so extra thank you to him for that. Perfect way to spend a day in Cappadocia.

What an amazing tour, Ali our guide knows his stuff and his passion shines through. In depth knowledge and ge tells the history of the region so well. Highly recommended and well worth the price and they went above and beyond to make us comfortable

Ali from pupa travels was the best. He wxplained everything, was very flexible and undersatnding. Perfect tour for turkey

I cannot say enough good things about this tour, due completely to our guide, Alican! I’m fairly confident all the red tour itineraries are pretty much the same and it is the guide that makes it special so we won the lottery. Alican has a great gentle sense of humor, obvious love of being a guide, and an interest in the attendees. He was organized in providing information, always welcome to questions and tangents but never forgot to circle back around to the original topic. He made the tour enjoyable and educational. We would do any tour with him anytime!

Mustafa is an incredible guide, the best we've had. He's insightful, funny, and keeps you very engaged. I loved that we had a small amount of time in each location to do what we wanted, it felt enough. We also loved the pistachio coffee cafe stop next to the valley, buy a pack there if you like it because you won't find the same one elsewhere. I'd heartily recommend this tour, much preferred it to the green tour, mainly because of Mustafa.

Excellent value for money with kind and knowledgeable guide. We saw so much and lunch included was also great. Covered a huge amount of area.
