What people are saying about Göreme

The tour was amazing and well organised. They picked us up from our hotel and drop us to a meeting point because we had another tour about to start, where the others were dropped back to their hotels. Tour was very responsive with all our enquiries, especially in my case I got a hotel change last minute, and still they could accommodate our pickup. We went in mid February, it was freeeezing cold. Wear plenty of layers please Might come back to bring family to enjoy the beautiful view in warmer season. :)

It was one of the most wonderful experiences ever. Excellent service. Comfortable vehicles throughout the journey and our guide was super nice. The cave hotel booked for us was the most amazing place and worth the money. We just sat and enjoyed the pretty views and sites and that's it. Nothing for us to worry about. The hot air balloon ride was just breathtaking. Totally recommend the tour package. you won't regret it at all.

Die Fontänen sind nur am Wochenende an. Was sehr Schade ist.

They picked us up at the hotel at the agreed time. They gave us some snacks for breakfast on the way to the area to board the balloon. The area is a few minutes from the hotels in Goreme. We went up and had some beautiful views of the rock formations and sunrise. The journey was safe and no movement was felt in the basket. We had 20 people and we had a great time.

Awesome! But, get there early!

The Hall of Mirrors alone is worth it. But, the gardens were over the top incredible! So massive. If you don’t have a skip the line ticket, make sure and get there at least a half hour before opening in order to avoid a long line. We got there 44 minutes early and only waited about 5 minutes to enter.

It was a wonderful ride. Our guide is very experienced and professional. He speaks very good English and takes care of us well, helps taking our pictures. I will highly recommend the ATV ride with him.
