I recommend this tour

Jeannette_R, Oct 2023
The tour was fun and interesting. Our guide Ali was good. He gave us a lot of interesting information about the sites we visited. There were visits to expensive jewelry and souvenir shops. But I think all group tours include those. It was interesting to look around and no one was forced to buy anything. I think the original operator, Paphlagia tours forgot me in Goreme so they had to organize a special car pick up for me. But I did not miss anything as I was able to catch the group at the first stop. And as compensation they arranged an airport pick up for me. So that's nice.

Very good, but not 100% as described

Abi_L, Sep 2023
The tour I went on was good, very interesting and the guide was a true professional - very chatty and informative. But I arrived and was transferred to a different tour agency to the one I booked. The tour was with Stone Gate not Paphlagonia Tours. The tour was 16 people despite clearly saying it would be 15 max. and we didn’t stop at Narligol Krater Golu. I still enjoyed the experience, but I had researched the different tour options before I went so was slightly disappointed it seemed to be slightly different. Had I known that I probably would have chosen a different operator.

An exceptional day in Cappadocia

Frederic_M, Sep 2023
Mr Shahin combines an in depth knowledge of the Cappadocia area, enlivened by his own experience growing up in Goreme city, with a passion for introducing his country to visitors. He expertly and fairly balanced explanations in excellent English with equal attention to another traveler who spoke another language.

Roberta_A, Aug 2023
This green tour is the best way to visit areas of Cappadocia that you would not visit on your own. Our guide was Elif, she is very prepared and guided us perfectly, giving also historical insights about the places. It was very hot on that day and they took care of us giving us water, plus the transfer was very comfortable and equipped with AC.

BEST TOUR EVER

Molly_S, Aug 2023
We had the BEST time with our wonderful guide, Elif. The bus was very comfortable, packed with water and AC. The tour was extremely interesting. Elif guided us perfectly, with facilitating historical explanations. She was like a history professor, knowledgeable about every detail of the ancient history. Elif is personable, funny and bubbly and was the best guide we have ever had in our travels. We would do this tour again and again. Until next time! From the Scott family.

Great day out!

Larica_S, Jun 2023
Mali was our guide for the day and from the moment he picked us up, he was friendly and made the day very relaxing and enjoyable. He was very knowledgable and passionate about the sites that we visited and kept checking that we were okay (hydrated, toilet stops, tired…) all throughout the day. He also made sure we were getting to the sites before the bigger tour groups came behind us, so we managed to get the photos in! Thank you for making our day memorable Mali!

Amazing tour!

Megan_R, May 2023
The green tour was a perfect way to explore Cappadocia. Our guide was so knowledgeable, personable, and a joy to spend time with. It was clear how much he valued and appreciated the history of each site we stopped at. The tour was timely, and I feel like we were given the perfect amount of time at every stop. All in all, highly recommend!

Tiffany_Y, Nov 2022
Great tour with lots of historical information (underground city was a highlight) and beautiful views! Our tour guide Shahin was very knowledgeable and accommodating - when we had to move our tour up a day last minute he was able to fit us in!

Nice locations and views

Ruzica_P, Jul 2022
Great locations visited. This tour has long rides but it is ok because you get tired and this is a good time to reenergize. Lots of opportunities for photos.

Tour bem estruturado para conhecer pontos turísticos mais distantes na Capadócia

Rogerio_V, May 2023
Tivemos uma ótima experiência com o serviço da Paphlagonia Tour. Nosso guia, Bekir, foi bastante prestativo e atencioso, fornecendo informações relevantes sobre os lugares visitados. Cabe observar que os pontos turísticos incluídos no Green Tour estão localizados distantes de Goreme e Uchisar, motivo pelo qual o tour se torna bastante interessante para conhecer locais mais afastados, como a Catedral Selime, o Vale de Ihlara e a cidade subterrânea de Derinkuyu. Em particular, a presença do guia foi importante para explorar o labirinto da cidade subterrânea. A escolha do local para almoço também foi ótima, num restaurante agradável e com boa comida. A única sugestão que faço é acrescentarem a visita ao Castelo de Uchisar no roteiro, pois, embora haja uma parada na cidade de Uchisar para compras, o castelo, que estava bastante próximo, não foi objeto de visitação. No geral, um tour bastante recomendado!

Response from Host, May 2023

Muito obrigado por sua gentil avaliação e experiência conosco. Espero hospedá-lo novamente em.

Tour dei negozi convenzionati.

Alberto_G, Apr 2023
Il fornitore Stoneland Travel dopo una breve visita panoramica ci ha bloccati in un negozio a percentuale e ci ha tenuti lì fino a quando qualcuno ha fatto acquisti. Alla sera siamo tornati tardi perché ha organizzato un ritiro (sempre da negozio “convenzionato”) e tornati a Göreme fuori del tempo massimo ci ha fatti scendere in centro città dicendo “i vostri hotel sono vicini”. Io chiederei il rimborso dell’attività. La peggiore da quando uso Viator (2016). Alberto.

Journée magnifique avec notre guide Ahmet

valerietrinne, Sep 2022
Superbe journée dans une voiture climatisé et confortable. Une bouteille d'eau pour chaque personne, c'est un détail important lorsqu'il fait très chaud. Le chauffeur au top. Notre guide est passionné par son métier. Ahmet nous met à l'aise avec son humour, il est très professionnel dans l'encadrement de notre groupe de 8 personnes. Attentionné et amical il nous a prit des photos 📸 🙂 Ce tour est interessant, j'ai appris beaucoup de choses. Il y a de beaux points de vues. Un bon repas est pris après la randonnée de 40 minutes. Ce qui est bien pensé. C'est un tour incontournable si vous visited la Cappadoce la 1ere fois Je recommande cette équipe à 200%. C'est l'une de mes meilleurs expériences de voyage en solo.
