Very good experience, with details to be improved

ArmandoCM, Apr 2022

First of all, both sites are amazing and worth the visit. In order to take the most of our time, we chose to go in 3 days in both sides. I strongly suggest to do it in, at least 4, so that you can enjoy both sites without stress. Having said that, some specifics of the experience: Guides: Amazing companions, with a lot of knowledge and very oriented to answer any questions. Acommodation: An amazing stay at Capadoccia in The Capadoccia hotel. Amazing place and outstanding service. In Pammukale, the hotel was kind of dissapointing. Even though it was used only for a few hours, they should provide better options for the price we paid. Organization: Good in general, with a quick response anytime we got in touch but with a couple of details to clarify and improve... 1.- Camel Safari switch: My wife and me didn't want to ride animals and we let the organizer know. At the first time, they cancel the trip and gave the evening free. We asked for a change of plan and we were able to go in a ATV tour. If we hadn't pushed enough, we would've missed this great experience. 2.- Internal flight only considers 15 kg luggage. As we were in a very extended trip, we surpassed the weight. They should help in advance in order to foresee these kind of issues. In general, an enjoyable tour highly recommended for 4+ days
