Overview
This tour of Cappadocia covers a lot of ground in one day. You will see the villages of Pasabag, Avanos and Goreme, home to many of Cappadocia's natural formations called fairy chimneys or hoodoos. These are tall thin spires of relatively soft rock topped by harder, less easily eroded stone that protects each column from the elements. In many of these towns, caves and churches have been carved into the formations. You will also visit the Open Air museum and enjoy lunch at a local restaurant.
