Horse riding excellent
A special thanks to Mansoor for being such a helpful and friendly guide. He made sure we had a great experience, showed us some amazing places, and went the extra mile throughout the tour. Fartana and Caramela were wonderful, gentle horses, and together they made this an unforgettable trip. Highly recommended!

Red tour Cappadocia, Turkey
Did this tour all day on Sunday, May 31, 2026. Great overall! The guide, Ali, was very knowledgeable and the van driver, Mustafa, was kind. It’s an all-day tour and much less physical than the Green Tour of Cappadocia. The pick-up and drop-off services were very convenient and crucial for tourists as the roads are confusing, very narrow and hilly. The gem store they stop at is nice, but the pottery store was definitely the best! Family owned for generations. They give you certificates of authenticity with purchases. Budget 200–600 USD to spend there. FYI, the better bathrooms (with western toilets and clean) are at the gem store, the pottery store, museums and restaurants. There was also a visit to an undergrad cave city. The good thing about this tour is that it was very economical up front and then individual admission was purchased and could be tailored to your needs. So some of the more physical activities were able to be bypassed by members of our group and the admission price was saved. Also, the included lunch buffet was very hearty. Would highly recommend !

We had an amazing sunset horse riding experience in Cappadocia! The team was very flexible with the pickup and start time, making sure we would be in the perfect spot to enjoy the sunset. As first-time riders, we really appreciated how patient and supportive our guide was throughout the entire ride.
The route through Red Valley was absolutely breathtaking, and we were treated to one of the most beautiful sunsets we have ever seen. The horses were well-trained, calm, and clearly very well cared for, which made us feel comfortable and safe.
This was such a unique and unforgettable experience, combining Cappadocia’s stunning landscapes with the joy of horseback riding. We highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area—it was truly one of the highlights of our trip!

Great experience. Driver...
Great experience. Driver was on time and courteous. I had to contact viator ahead of reservation since my hotel was slightly out of the pick up range, but once it was approved with the operator I made a reservation. You enter your flight times and the operator determines what time you will be picked up. We had 6am pickup for a 9:30am flight departure. It takes approximately 1 hour to drive to the Kayseri airport, so we had plenty of time to check-in and get a bite to eat before boarding. (Bring your own food, the airport food is extremely expensive!)

Beautiful way to end the day 🇹🇷⛰️
Easy ride, suitable for beginners, but still very enjoyable for riders with some experience.. our guide Muaed Amead made sure to get some really photos for us, both on the horses, and up on the rock formations. The horses were calm and well mannered, and for experienced riders, there was an opportunity at the end for a short canter around a loop.. twice around would have been good!!
Thank you to the team for a fabulous experience

Amazing Sunset Ride
I would give this 6 stars if I could. Our guide was knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. The ride was spectacular and not just thr typical ride out and back. We rode through thr fairy cones and up into the mountains to a historic Christian church cave. I would recommend this ride to anyone. Even those with no riding experience.

We all know that the success of the tour relies very much on the guide and the driver. We were lucky as our guide and driver worked together to make our tour a wonderful experience. We have not only been to the iconic landmarks listed in the itinerary and have feasted spectacular views but have been educated by our guide who was both knowledgeable and professional.

We booked a transfer from our hotel to ASR airport for 11 people. The driver was on time and fit everyone into a 15 seat vehicle with all of our luggage. The ride was smooth and we got to the airport earlier than expected. Our activity provider was Helios Transfer and I would highly recommend them.

Spectacular Horseback Tour
Great experience! Horses were well trained and very sweet. Our guide was great and took a bunch of photos for us. The tour took us down to Love Valley during the balloon flights. Beautiful views! Highly recommend going early morning to get views of the balloons lighting up the sky!

Started off late but enjoyed my experience
I think my tour forgot about me, and after about 10 minutes waiting, I messaged them and they said the driver was on his way. I arrived at the ranch and was on a horse about 30 minutes after my initial pickup time. I was told that it was just me today and I had my own guide. He was a very nice young Afghani guide and he was great. He made me feel comfortable on the horse and even took pics of me using my phone at scenic stops.
About 30 minutes in, we crossed paths with another group of riders on horseback and he let me know that was my group. So I probably missed a small portion of my ride as I didn’t get to do the whole ride my group did, but I still had a great time.

Cappadocia is famous for its horses—so much so that the word “Cappadocia” translates to “land of fine horses.” This rich cultural legacy makes Cappadocia horseback riding one of the best ways to explore the region. Traverse rugged volcanic terrain while soaking up views of the famous fairy chimneys of Love Valley and Monk Valley, or opt for a sunrise or sunset tour to see the dramatic landscape in its best light. Cappadocia horseback riding tours typically don’t require prior riding experience, making them an excellent option for most visitors.
