2 Days Cappadocia Tour from Istanbul with Cave Hotel & Balloon Ride

Do not book with this company!! They said everything will be fine and then 5 days before my trip to Cappadocia they send me a message saying they have to cancel my trip. I was infuriated because I based my entire vacation on this trip. When I asked what was the reasoning, they said they couldn’t find flights. Which was a lie because I went online and found the flights. Worst company ever! Do not book with them!

I would not recommend booking this trip - instead book the one with optional balloon ride. I paid significantly more for the balloon ride (almost $350 PP over the regular 2 day tour) but the balloon ride was cancelled that day (apparently happens often) and viator only refunded s $109 per person stating that that was how much the balloon company charges them. It was like if I return a $50 shirt to a store but the store refunds only $10 saying that is how much it cost them from the manufacturer. It felt like a huge rip off. .

This is a must for any traveler, visitor, photography enthusiast, who plans a trip to Cappadocia to make sure they get on a balloon ride especially the sunrise ride The balloon ride is etched in our memory ! The views are breathtaking and to die for - with 100s of balloons taking off as the sun rises, then weaving their way thru valleys and the rock formations - ending the trip on the high note with a glass of champagne! Our tour operators HTR Tours have been very flexible and accomodating, always prompt with their replies - special thanks to Pinar Ulutas for being available when we were stuck with our transfers We had the privilege of Jazi (JC) as our your guide, she has been one of the best tour guides we have met, her knowledge of history, geography and local culture is unique. We wish he all the best as she embarks on the next phase of her Journey - Thanks once again JC

I highly recommend HRT Tours. They organized an amazing experience. Our tour guide Murat was great! He remembered everyone’s names in our group and even did the tour in English and Spanish. He was very knowledgeable, funny, friendly, and explained things in a unique way that made the experience very memorable. I will definitely recommend HRT Tours to all my friends who will be visiting Turkey in the future.

I cannot recommend this tour highly enough! If you're up for really getting out and seeing Cappadocia from all angles, this is the way to do it! The hot air balloon at sunrise was absolutely stunning (and made for some amazing photos that we still share, including a huge canvas in our living room!). The hikes, the amazing landscapes, the history - all of it was just breathtaking. Our guide for the two days we were in Cappadocia was Oguzhan Turkoglu and he was the best! Not only was he extremely knowledgeable about all things Turkey, Cappadocia, and tour-related, he impressed the entire group by sharing little known facts about each of the places we all came from across the world. I imagine he would be a phenomenal tour guide in just about any place on earth! Again, I cannot say enough about how amazing this tour was and have since sent two separate couples to do the same! * It says we visited in June 2018, but we actually did in June 2014 (it wouldn't let me select anything further back). I'm a bit embarrassed it took me this long to write a review, but it just goes to show just how memorable it was!
