Ancient Cappadocia's Wine Tasting - Private Tour

My husband and I recently took this tour. We were very excited about it as there were not many wine tour options available in the region despite it being well known for wine. Unfortunately the description was very misleading. Our tour was only an hour and a half long and we only visited two vineyards. We had two tastings (8 wines in total) that were quite small and we didn’t learn too much about the wine or wine making process. When we inquired about the timing (1.5 hours instead of 3-4) and number of vineyards (2 instead of 3) we were first told that the tour should have been 3 vineyards and 3-4 hours but then told that our specific confirmation email said it would only be 2 vineyards. We haven’t heard anything else from the company despite a few attempts to follow-up. Our guide was lovely but this tour was not worth $340. You can take a taxi to the tasting room yourself. There also were no snacks included. We were told that cheese would be an extra 30 euro per person.

This was just me and my sister and a guide who explained tons of information about wine in the region, what we were drinking, etc. We made three stops and had TONS of glasses of wine. Like 12 or 15 maybe. I mean they weren't all full but seriously you get lots of wine. There were also snacks to go with the wine thank goodness. The stops were lovely places, very beautiful wine tasting rooms and small vineyards.

Outstanding personalized wine tasting tour in Goreme, Turkey. We visited 3 wineries and it was clear that the visits had been well coordinated beforehand, the driver showed up exactly on time at our hotel, and our guide was very knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommend and plan to use this tour company again!
