Cappadocia One Day Trip by Plane

Cappadocia One Day Trip by Plane

After picking you up at your hotel at the indicated time, we'll head to one of the city's airports (Istanbul International or Sabiha Airport) where you'll take one of the first flights of the day to Cappadocia. After a 90-minute flight, you'll land in this region full of natural wonders.

The first stop of the trip is Devrent Valley, world-famous for its surprising rock formations. You'll appreciate why it's also known as Imaginary Valley as you walk through its moon-like landscape.     

Continue the tour to Göreme Valley, a truly magical open-air museum, declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO. Wander around the area and marvel at its fairy chimney rocks and the houses and churches carved straight into the slabs.

Discover the troglodyte village of Uçhisar by foot and admire the beautiful panoramic views of the region from its citadel at the top of the highest peak of the region. Here, you'll stop and enjoy the region’s traditional gastronomy for lunch.

After lunch, head to Monks Valley, home of the most striking fairy chimneys in Cappadocia. Here, you’ll visit one of its underground cities (Özkonak or Kaymakli), built by the Christian communities to defend themselves from the Muslim Arabs.

Afterward, you'll head back to the airport to take the 7:45 pm or 9:50 pm (depending on the availability of both) flight back to Istanbul. After you land, you'll be driven back to your hotel.

Pickup

The tour includes pickup from the following areas in central Istanbul: Bayrampaşa, Beşiktaş, Beyoğlu, Eminönü, Eyüp, Fatih, Kağıthane, Şişli and Zeytinburnu. If you're staying outside these areas, you'll have to go to the meeting point located at The Marmara Taksim Hotel 5*.
