Pigeon Valley tours

Overlooking Cappadocia's iconic "fairy chimney" rock formations in Göreme, and exploring the underground cities and rock-cut caves, you'll feel as if you're traveling through history and natural wonders. From a high vantage point, these rock formations and caves, sculpted by time, resemble an alien landscape. Stepping into thousand-year-old rock ruins and underground cities, and gazing out through narrow rock-cut windows, you'll witness history and nature converging to create a breathtaking scale. In the afternoon, a stroll through the towering trees offers a refreshing escape as cool stream water flows beneath your feet, instantly washing away the dry heat. Surrounded by flocks of geese and ducks in the pond, and encountering a sudden close-up from a roadside cat—beyond the grand scenery, these lively and heartwarming small moments become the gentlest footnotes of the day.

I had a really satisfying experience overall. Our guide, Eda, was very kind and gave us helpful explanations throughout the tour. The tour was well-organized and offered great value for money. We visited Göreme Panorama, Derinkuyu Underground City, Selime Monastery, Ihlara Valley, and Pigeon Valley. At each stop, Eda gave us a brief explanation and then allowed us enough free time to look around at our own pace. We had lunch before moving to Ihlara Valley, and there were various main dish options, including fish, meatballs, chicken, beef, mushroom, and vegetarian choices. The Ihlara Valley hike was a bit hot even in June, but we were able to rest in the shade and enjoy it comfortably. The hotel pickup was right on time at 9:30 a.m., and we returned to the hotel around 4:30 p.m. There were only five people in the tour group including me, so the schedule went smoothly without any delays. Overall, it was a well-paced, efficient, and enjoyable tour. I would definitely recommend it!

It was smooth, exciting, with the right amount of time to spend, as well as some given free time to explore the sites. The attractions are close together, which made the rides enjoyable. I liked that it wasn't a big group. My tour guide, Rabía, is great, professional, informative, and she always checked on us. I really appreciated her. The buffet-style lunch was fresh and tasty. Just one thing was out of the itinerary written here: we had a quick stop for a complimentary Turkish food and coffee tasting session at a store, which I didn't mind because I didn't feel any pressure to shop. It was lovely that they offered you a deal after the tasting and prior to your browsing at the store. The customer service team of this tour was good as well, and the response time was reasonably quick. I do encourage you to reach out to them first about the arrangement via the contact info they provided here.

The day tour was very well organised, with timely service and excellent assistance throughout. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience even more enjoyable. Everything was handled smoothly and on time. The lunch provided was decent, but I think there should be better options for vegetarians. Rest I would recommend this day tour!

I had a wonderful time on the Green Tour. Our guide, Anıl, was very kind and knowledgeable. He explained everything in clear and easy-to-understand English, which made the tour enjoyable and informative. Since I joined the tour alone, he kindly took many beautiful photos for me, which I really appreciated. I also felt very safe with our driver, Musa. His driving was smooth and comfortable throughout the day. Joining the Green Tour was truly a memorable experience, and I made wonderful memories. Thank you very much to Anıl and Musa for making my trip so special!

It was so good! Highly, highly recommend! The price was cheaper than other places, and it included the entrance fee and lunch! The guide, who spoke Korean very well, told us interesting stories and kindly answered all my questions. Even though I participated alone, I had a really fun and memorable time. Also, I've seen many comments saying that other green tours are long and involve a lot of walking, making them tiring, but this one returned around 4:30 PM, and the timing and physical exertion were just perfect!

Although it was originally scheduled to be an English tour, perhaps because it was Silver Week and the only guests were Japanese, we were assigned a Japanese-speaking guide, which made for a wonderful tour. The guide was very fluent in Japanese, and we gained a lot of new knowledge! Midway through, they even made an unscheduled stop in Avanos, where we were able to observe the process of making pottery and plates, and do some shopping (no forced purchases). There was just one minor point (perhaps because we went to Avanos?): the tour was scheduled to end at 4:30 PM, but we didn't return until after 6:00 PM. It was fine for us as we didn't have any plans after the tour, but some members had dinner reservations at 6:30 PM, so the post-lunch portion of the tour felt quite rushed. Given how excellent the explanations were, the schedule management was a bit disappointing. For lunch, we went to a buffet-style restaurant, which was very delicious! (Even water cost extra!)

ANGEL IS SUCH AN ANGEL AND GOOD DRIVER VERY INFORMATIVE AND FUN

It was incredibly helpful that they explained everything slowly and carefully in English, making it understandable even for those of us who aren't fluent. They were very flexible and accommodating, and the people we toured with were also kind, making for a truly wonderful experience!
