We welcome you to spend extraordinary 3 days exploring wonderful Cappadocia the most intriguing landscapes in the world!

** Cappadocia trip is a very costly tour as a tour operation. Our tour operation concept is to keep the tour participation fee low and to earn from the extras during the tour. Our most important extra income is the hot air balloon tour in Cappadocia (in case of reservation). For this reason, it is not accepted by us that you join a tour with us and book a balloon from another company in Cappadocia. All Cappadocia tours from the Antalya region (Side, Kemer, Alanya, Antalya and Belek) are the same. Cappadocia Balloon tour reservations can be made through our tour guide on the first day of the tour. **

“Schöne Region, Zu kurz und bündig”
Reviewed by Michaela L*****   20-04-2014
Fahrt:
Meistens ein wenig holprig, schlechte Autofederung.



Guide:
Man merkte, dass er einem nur mag, wenn man seine Zusatzverkäufe annimmt. z.B. Essenspaket, Abendprogramm
Man hatte kaum Zeit zu fotografieren, an unnötigen Stops wurde teilweise mehr Zeit verbracht als bei Highlights.



Essen:
Das Essenspaket haben wir zum Glück nicht gebucht. Das einzige Problem war, dass sich diese Restaurants genau am sehr ab gegeben Orten befanden wo man sonst nichts zu Essen finden konnte. Gezwungenermassen musste man frühzeitig kleine Snacks einkaufen.



Die Region an sich war sehr schön, aber aufgrund von den Besuchen in Fabriken hatte man zu wenig Zeit für die wundervolle Natur. Preis- und Leistungsverhältnis ist in Ordnung. Deshalb kann man nicht zu viel bemängeln.
