Daily Cappadocia Tours:
The
most popular attraction in Cappadocia is to join
the Daily Cappadocia Tours.
With these tours you will discover the magic of
Cappadocia. There are many destinations to see
in Cappadocia so we advise you to spend at least
three or four days in Cappadocia. The most
important place to see in Cappadocia is Goreme
Open Air Museum with the ‘fairy chimneys’ -
piles of volcanic stone and ash (tuffs) eroded
by rain and wind to produce chimney-like
structures. This area is a World Heritage Site
and visited by millions of people every year.
There are several rock-cut churches and
underground settlements here. Goreme open air
museum is not the only place must be visited.
Also Zelve Open Air Museum is one of the best
destinations. For more information about
cappadocia tours you can visit our

Mount Climbing & Ski:
There is also facility for mountain climbing
and mountain skiing at Erciyes Dagi, which is at
a height of 3,916 m above sea level. Erciyes
Dagi is the highest mountain in central Turkey,
a prominent landmark since antiquity visible
over much of the middle of the country. Unlike
Turkey's other major volcanoes, Erciyes is
extensively eroded, as the main peak has been
inactive for probably close to 100,000 years,
although there have been flank eruptions in more
recent times. Erciyes Mountain is only 60 km far
from Cappadocia and easy reach. The extensive
skiing takes place between 2200m and 3100m,
making this a high-altitude and snow sure
destination with open skiing above the
tree-line. It is, also, a summer ski area. There
are rapid developments and extensions taking
place. For more information don't hesitate to

ATV
Tours:
A
great way to get right off the beaten track! Take a half
or full-day guided tour through the most beautiful of
Cappadocia's spectacular rock-cut valleys on a sturdy
ATV (quad) bike. These tours are a great activity option
for those seeking a few hours of fun and adventure
outdoors. ATVs provide an opportunity for great
sight-seeing, as one is enabled to roam the hills,
valleys, dunes, and trails of the Cappadocia. Riding
your own ATV through Cappadocia valleys is an extremely
exciting experience. The 360 degree views from the
lookout constructed at the top of the property are
simply spectacular.

Turkish
Bath(Hamam) & Spa:
The
Turkish bath, also know as hamam or hammam, is one of
the ancient world's most widely exported customs. The
tradition of the Turkish bath was born generations ago,
adopted from Romans and Byzantines and then perfected by
the Seljuk and Ottoman Turks and has continued even
until today.There are three traditional and a couple
modern Hamams in Cappadocia. They all offer the same
Hamam facilities but we suggest the traditional ones in
Urgup, Goreme and Avanos which have historical
buildings.
