Highlight of our Türkiye trip thanks to Cappadociavisitor.com and Harun!
We booked both the balloon tour and green tour with Cappadociavisitor.com for our trip to Cappadocia and I was blown away with the tour experience. Harun, our guide was young, kind and sweet. He was very knowledgeable and very fluent in English. He was pleasurable and never rushed us even though our schedule was packed with so many stops and highlights throughout the tour. He also had the photo spots and even helped take the most amazing photos for our family. He was very well educated in both the history and politics of not only Cappadocia region but all of Türkiye and had a lot of tips to give us for our next cities in Türkiye. I’ve been on a lot of tours but he’s been the best so far and made us feel like family and welcomed. A+ and I promise, you won’t regret it.
