Itinerary

Day 1

Today's touring starts with you either being picked up from Kayseri Airport or from your existing Cappadocia hotel. You will be given a full day's tour of the valleys to see remnants of some of the older churches, rock formations and the Kaymakli Underground city. The latter is particularly impressive as you discover this incredible underground city where the early Christians once hid from their persecutors. Late in the afternoon you will be returned to your Cappadocia hotel for the evening. Lunch and dinner are included in today's itinerary.

Day 2

Day two of the tour has the option of taking a hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia - an unforgettable experience for anybody who goes on this trip as the moonscapes of Cappadocia are like nowhere else in the world. This excursion entails a very early start, but it is very much worth the early rising. Please speak to us to arrange this excursion in advance. The rest of the day's touring starts later in the morning (dependent on the balloon riders return) when you will visit the valleys where animal-like natural formations like camels and fair chimneys are abundant. The fairy chimneys of Gorome only add to the landscape. The tour continues on to Pasabagi in Zelve area where monks used to live in seclusion in rock cut rooms. After this it is on to the pottery town of Avanos on the banks of the Kizilirmak (Hallys), the longest river of Turkey. The red clay from the riverbanks has been used for pottery for centuries. After lunch you will visit to Open Air Museum in Goreme to visit to the early Christian churches decorated with unique frescoes depicting various scenes from the Bible. On the way back to Cappadocia you will stop at Pigeon Valley near Uchisar and you will be given some free time to do some shopping. All meals are provided today and dinner will be held at a restaurant near the hotel.

Day 3

After breakfast you will make your way to Ankara. The first stop is the century Agzikarahan Caravanserai, a place where camel caravans have traded for centuries - a fascinating morning for all. On arrival in Ankara you will visit the Anatolian Civilizations Museum at which there are numerous remnants from Stone Age, Neolithic Age, Hittites, Urartians, Phrygians and many other civilizations that have lived in the vicinity. Today's excursions give you an idea of the great history and fascinating cultures of this ancient land. Later you will visit the Citadel of Ankara and the Mausoleum of Ataturk, the burial place of the national hero who founded modern Republic of Turkey. Lunch will be provided. Later in the afternoon you will be transferred to your hotel for a last overnight stay.

Day 4

After breakfast and check out you will be transferred to Ankara airport for you onward flight.

Fabulous trip and attention to detail!

Anthony Alagiah with Antelope Travel planned the perfect family trip for us in June 2023. Anthony was a pleasure to work with, he communicated in detail and was very responsive to any questions I had and even stayed in touch while we were in Greece.
This was our first visit to Greece and he patiently guided me during the planning process and planned perfect itineraries for Athens, the islands and the mainland so we could experience a variety of different parts of Greece. Keeping three teenage boys engaged and interested isn't always easy but all of Anthony's tours, tour guides and activities worked perfectly for all of us!
We had many air, land and sea transfers and Anthony's planning and his partners ensured that everything went smoothly for us.
We were referred to Anthony from friends and I highly recommend him! I have now referred other friends to him, as thanks to his expertise, we had a fantastic family trip to Greece.
