Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, this package includes domestic round-trip flight tickets (Istanbul to Cappadocia, Cappadocia to Izmir, and Izmir to Istanbul).
2- What type of hotel is the accommodation in Cappadocia? Is it a cave hotel?
The price includes accommodation and breakfast in an authentic “Cave Hotel” or in a boutique hotel with stone rooms, consistent with the unique texture of Cappadocia.
3- Is the famous hot air balloon flight included in the price?
No, the balloon flight is an optional activity (extra) and is not included in the tour price. However, since it is a must-have experience in Cappadocia, we highly recommend it; we can help you book your spot for the morning of the second day.
4- In what language is the guide service provided during the tour?
During all visits in Cappadocia, you will be accompanied by a professional guide, officially licensed and an expert in the region, who speaks English fluently.
5- Are there long bus trips between cities?
No, this is one of our most comfortable tours. We connect the main regions (Istanbul, Ephesus/Pamukkale, and Cappadocia) via direct domestic flights to avoid long hours on the road.
6- Which meals are included in the program and which are not?
Breakfasts are included in the hotels and lunches are included during the tours. Dinners are at your leisure so you can explore local gastronomy at your own pace. Your guide will recommend the best local restaurants in each city.
7- How are airport transfers organized?
Our service is “door to door.” We will pick you up at your Istanbul hotel to take you to the airport and, upon landing in Cappadocia, our vehicle will be waiting for you. At the end of the tour, we will drop you off again at your Istanbul hotel. All these transfers are included in the price.

There is no need to print the boarding passes; you can use them directly on your mobile.
10- How far in advance should I book this 10-day Turkey tour?
We strongly recommend booking as soon as possible. Since the package includes flight tickets and very popular cave hotels with limited capacity, early booking guarantees your spot and allows us to find better flight times.

It depends on your nationality. Many countries do not need a visa for tourist stays. Please check with your consulate or ask us directly via WhatsApp indicating your country.
12- How many people make up the group?
It is a boutique (small) group of maximum 10 people. Although in very exceptional cases the number may increase slightly, we organize it in a way that does not affect the quality of your travel experience at all.

14- Which airlines do you use?
Internal flights are operated by Turkish Airlines, Pegasus Airlines, or Ajet.
15- What should we bring and how should we dress for the trip to Cappadocia?
Due to the continental climate and natural structure of Cappadocia, we suggest preparing your suitcase according to the season:
- In Winter (December-March): The weather is quite harsh and cold. It is essential to wear thermal underwear, a hat, gloves, and non-slip waterproof boots, especially for morning activities (like the balloon). We recommend dressing in “layers” to stay warm.
- In Summer (June-August): The weather is hot and dry. You should wear breathable cotton/linen clothes, a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen.
- Important Note: Whatever the season, to walk comfortably through the valleys, always choose sneakers or comfortable walking shoes instead of high heels.

In general, this tour has an “Easy-Medium” difficulty level. The program does not include intense trekking; you arrive by vehicle at the entrance of the points to visit and perform short walks there.
