The two day tour, by coach, from Istanbul, is a long but rewarding two days, with so much to see and do. The coach travels through the night is built for comfort and endurance, air conditioned, and certainly equipped for onboard sleeping. Thus you and your guide, will arrive as if you have just had a good night’s sleep.
Cappadocia is home to the ancient underground cities of Derinkuyu and Kaymakli, along with the fairy chimneys that grace these hidden valleys. With its almost lunar landscape and hidden beauty Cappadocia has long been a place sought by the discerning tourist. With its ancient Christian villages and strange volcanic structures, there can be no place like it on earth.
It may be hard to believe that an ancient civilisation sought refuge in the subterranean cities, taking livestock with them, for up to five floors below ground level, yet they did. Whatever caused them to seek refuge is no longer a threat, and the beauty of the Goreme Valley and its various canyons is now only home to the invading tourist. Thankfully.
