Exclusive EscapesCappadociaHow to Enjoy Cappadocia | What to do and how long for - how to get the most from this extraordinary region. Intro b |
Cappadocia is there to be explored freely by all. However, as the region is so vast and the places of interest so many and varied, we feel so strongly that a guide will enhance your enjoyment of the region that our prices include the services of one of our highly specialist Private Guides.
Our guides are extremely knowledgeable and they will discuss an itinerary that is most suited to your interests – be that trekking, cultural, religious, artistic, flora and fauna, relaxation or any combination thereof!
Your guide is certain to provide you with a fascinating insight into the history and culture of this wonderful region. You will have the opportunity to discover areas rarely visited and experience Cappadocia in a way that would be impossible to do on your own.
Naturally, should you prefer to go without the services of a Private Guide, a reduction is applicable to our rates.
Many visitors choose to visit Cappadocia for just two or three days. This is fine to get a taste, however the region will undoubtedly leave you wanting more! We would recommend a stay of five to seven days in order to allow time to relax and truly appreciate the stunning National Park without having to rush through it.
The travel to such a seemingly remote location is remarkably simple, with scheduled flights from Heathrow and Manchester routing almost daily to Cappadocia (Kayseri) via Istanbul.
The professional and well-reputed team of Voyager Balloons have been flying for many years and escort you on this magical journey above a mythical landscape. This early morning flight is a glorious experience and one that we cannot recommend highly enough.
Floating high above the landscape and low between the canyons, the flight is a memorable and invigorating experience and one that we enjoy on every visit to Cappadocia.
We are pleased to offer Exclusive Escapes Guests the opportunity to fly with Lars and Kaili at this special rate which must be pre-booked prior to your departure.
Deluxe Flight (two-and-a-half to three hours): £220
Standard Flight (one hour): £150

The unique terrain of Cappadocia is ideally suited to trekking of all levels. All manner of trails abound – leading through the hearts of the canyons beneath the trees on the valley floors, and up above on the cliff edges, with dramatic views across the entire landscape.
Many of these trails are open to mountain bikes and others to horses. There is an excellent riding school in the region which caters to all abilities, from gentle ambles for the novice child, through to exhilarating overnight treks for the confident equestrian.
There is much for the cultural visitor to learn from the region. You could explore the plethora of cave churches that are scattered throughout the canyons and valleys. Or you may decide to visit the many museums such as the wonderfully preserved Göreme Open Air Museum where the story of the region is told in clear and graphic detail.
You can explore rock churches dating from the fourth century and frescoes from the eighth. Alternatively experience the surreal feeling of exploring one of the underground settlements such as the one at Kaymakli.
The region is home to all manner of flora and fauna as well as being an ornithologist’s delight. The unusual light is why so many artists have made the region their home.
Once in Cappadocia you are sure to develop an overwhelming desire to learn as much as you can about the region. We would recommend the following Guides for general knowledge: Rough Guide, Lonely Planets and Michelin Guide.
We usually find Stanford’s Map and Travel Book Shop to be a more than useful source of information.
