Customer Reviews
This tour is the definition of convenience. From the moment we were picked up in Istanbul to the moment we were dropped back 4 days later, everything ran like clockwork. The connection in Istanbul on Day 3 was short, so we didn't wait long. Pamukkale is a must-see, and having a guide to explain the history of Hierapolis made it much more interesting than just walking around alone.
We compared the bus option and this flight option, and I am so glad we chose the flights. You get a good night's sleep in a bed every night. Day 3 is a travel day, but you arrive in Pamukkale ready for the next day's adventure. The hotels selected were 4-star quality or boutique cave hotels. The food was tasty and fresh. Highly recommended.
We traveled in winter. Cappadocia was snowy and magical. Flights were operating normally. The connected flight on Day 3 was seamless. The thermal pools in Pamukkale were warm and inviting in the cold weather. The guide took care of all the tickets and details. It was a stress-free way to see the two most famous UNESCO sites in Turkey.
If you hate long bus rides, this is the tour for you. Day 1 and 2 cover the North and South of Cappadocia comprehensively. On Day 3, we flew to Istanbul and then to Denizli. It takes time, but it is comfortable. Day 4 in Hierapolis was amazing; the ancient ruins are well-preserved. We had plenty of time to swim in Cleopatra's pool. A very well-balanced itinerary.
Exceptional organization. We never had to wait for a driver; they were always punctual. The transition from the rocky landscapes of Cappadocia to the white calcium pools of Pamukkale is stunning. Using flights for the transfer on Day 3 makes the whole trip feel more premium. The lunch stops were at good local restaurants with buffet options. I would definitely book this again.
