アンタルヤからのカッパドキア2日ツアー

Our tour guide Melissa has been amazing, provided great experience for our family trip for our first time in Cappadocia!

Jacob brought us around cappadocia, very friendly and informative guide, helped us take pictures and explained clearly

I join EKM Antalya travel agency with 2 days Cappadocia tour. The arrangement is good. The scenery of Cappadocia is very beautiful. The history and the nature both are amazing. The tour guide Timur is very nice and helpful. He can good speak good English and Russian languages. The most unforgettable is Ballon experience.

Cappadocia was fantastic. Unfortunately, the luck was not so good. The bus was anything but comfortable, we were driven to an ice cold breakfast in unheated tent. After 500 km we got about 20 minutes per amazing place to take photos the first day, while we would spend longer at uninteresting places like the factory for gems and ceramics where we apparently would shop. Pointless. The guide was ignorant and uninterested and the places we had to eat, which were not included, were ridiculously expensive and bad. It might have been foolish to think that it could be good, but at least you could have expected the guide to tell you about history, culture etc., but she just kept going on about expensive activities you could do and what they cost. No, don't go.

It was an amazing experience with good condition to travel, good food, wonderful landscapes and sites. A special mansion for the guide. We had asking for an english guide but in our group was just 3 travelers with this option. We was part in a group of russian spikers but the guide managed his time to make all to feel good. Whether did not let us to fly with hot air baloon but a jeep safari was beautiful substitute. This trip make my holiday probably best of my life.

I wouldnt recommend this tour as it doesnt follow the programm described in the website. We were picked up by the bus at 3 am the first day in Antalya and we arrived at capadoccia around 2 pm. The stops we did in Capadoccia were not the ones described in the tour as we didnt enter any of the places. Basically they stop you like 5 minutes in like 3 stops so you take a picture near the castle for example, but you cant go up to it because there is no time. They stop you several times to sell you stuff: ceramic, sweets...and then, of course there is so much time for that. In addition to that, they ask you to pay extra 15€ per lunch and there is no other option, as there is nothing else around tje place where you stop... At night, they ask you to pay 10€ extra for the view point, otherwise you can go to the hotel which is in Avaron, not Goreme. Summarizing: you will spend most of the time sitting at thw bus and seeing shops were they sell u stuff.

We were thoroughly pleased with every aspect of our tour, amazed at the breadth of experiences packed into two days. The itinerary was meticulously planned, and our group of 10, accompanied by two guides fluent in English and Russian, ensured a smooth journey. The tour van was pristine, offering both comfort and safety, with a skilled driver at the helm. Erhan, our guide, brought over two decades of expertise, enriched by his deep roots in the Cappadocia region. His knowledge proved invaluable, particularly in adjusting the itinerary to accommodate weather conditions affecting hot air balloon flights. While some Western travelers might prefer more detailed itinerary information in advance, we found Erhan's approach to be characteristic of Turkish hospitality. Although the scheduled merchant stops catered to various interests, such as the delightful dried fruit and candy store, we regretted missing out on visits to the Orthodox "rock" churches with frescoes, possibly due to schedule adjustments. Accommodation details were disclosed only upon the tour's commencement. Despite the compact room furnished with three single beds and limited power outlets, it was clean and comfortable. Meals were served buffet-style, with beverages, including water, available for an additional charge. Our punctual hotel pickup marked the beginning of an extensive journey, stretching from Antalya to Side, adding an extra 40 minutes to an hour to our travel time. Nonetheless, we departed thoroughly impressed by the diversity of sites explored and the overall quality of the tour experience.

Very nice excursion, got to see beautiful places. Gayrat is a good guide, he looked after everyone in the group and made an effort to make it a pleasant trip, the driver did a good job as well despite a long journey. There are many stops on the way, so fairly comfortable. Excursion was in Russian, not in English, I didn’t mind, but it wasn’t clear when I booked, I thought it would be in English. I waited for an hour for the bus to pick me up at night, I was told the day before that my pick up was 30 minutes earlier than stated in the booking. Thankfully the guide got in touch with me and at least gave some clarity about the timing, otherwise it was very annoying to wait for an hour in the middle of the night.

The whole experience was great, we were looked after very well by the tour guide. Special mention to our guide "Sultan". Well explained history of Turkey, and the distinct landmarks of Cappadocia regions. We did the hot air balloon ride (it is not included in tour package) but I highly recommend trying this "must do" thing when in Cappadoccia. We were also brought to different local shops, where you can haggle of prices of jewelleries and exotic things. I would recommend bringing petty cash with you as some shops don't agree with cards. The only thing I could suggest, is I hope there will be an option on your website that customers can manually put their address. Overall, I highly recommend this company as legit, staff are friendly and approachable, the value of money is worth it, and the food is amazing ( please note that lunch is not included, but you'll have breakfast and dinner for free). I ENJOYED my experience 100%

Firstly, three buses broke down during the entire excursion. We stood at the first stop for three hours, after which we had to shorten the time of each stop where there was really something to see. Secondly, no one warned that you need to pay an extra $25-40 in order to look (!) at the hot air balloons at dawn. Let me emphasize again: we paid extra just to look at them, not to fly)) It was known about lunch that it is not included in the price of the excursion. However, it was not known that it would be possible to dine EXCLUSIVELY with what the guide told us (no choice, one single dish for an additional $15). Thirdly, I got the impression that our guide Ilyas was not very happy to explain himself and answer tourists’ questions. My sister and I clarified how the food would be served, Ilyas’ answer was “Even the Arabs understand Russian better than you.” Before that, we asked something about the underground city that was not entirely clear to us, he sighed and rolled his eyes until the tourists themselves answered us)) I’m not sure that such behavior is the behavior of a professional guide. The only thing I liked about the whole two days was the sunrise in Cappadocia. This is one plus among so many minuses.
