Overview

Itinerary

1. Stop 1 · 30m

   You will be picked up from your hotel between 9:30 and 10:00 am to embark on a Private Guided Blue Tour Cappadocia.

2. Stop 2 · 30m

   Goreme is a village located in the center of Cappadocia. Recently, it has become a center of attraction with its hotels carved into the rock. Göreme panorama offers views of the charming village of Göreme.

3. Stop 3 · 1h

   Our first destination is the Kaymaklı Underground City, an intricate labyrinth of tunnels and numerous chambers carved eight levels deep beneath the Earth. However, only four of these levels are accessible to the public. The history of this underground city dates back to the Hittite and Phrygian periods, and it evolved over the centuries. The dwellings we explore today were meticulously carved by early Christians during the 9th and 10th centuries to safeguard themselves from invaders who ventured into Central Anatolia in pursuit of captives and plunder.

4. Stop 4 · 3h

   We will drive further south to the magnificent verdant Ihlara Valley. We will walk alongside the Melendiz River for about 1 hour which winds its way through the Ihlara gorge, stopping for lunch in a restaurant on the river in the village of Belisirma.

5. Stop 5 · 30m

   After lunch, we continue to the Selime Monastery, the largest rock-cut monastery in Cappadocia with a large cave cathedral and breathtaking views over the area.
   
   One day in 1963, a farmer in the village of Şahinefendi noticed something that obviously was not part of the natural landscape and started clearing away the dirt. He uncovered a panel of mosaics, a finding he knew to be significant. He reported his discovery to the local museum, but was ignored. Only in 2002, after decades of attempts to engage the authorities, the local museum finally took action and started excavations which are still going on.
   
   A corrugated-iron roof protects the 400-square-metre meeting hall, the main attraction of which is the beautiful mosaic flooring. Later a chapel had been built on top of some of the finer mosaics inside the meeting hall with materials that were supplied from the main hall.

6. Stop 6 · 30m

   On our way back to Goreme we stop at the spectacular vista point overlooking Pigeon Valley.

7. Stop 7 · 30m

   The tour is expected to conclude around 4:00-5:00 pm, and you will be comfortably transported back to your hotel.
