Avanos - Enjoy a buffet-style lunch in Avanos, offering a wide range of Turkish food including mezes, salads, meat and vegetarian dishes and desserts.
Still in Avanos, visit an authentic family-run pottery workshop located in an underground cave. Clay from the Kızılırmak (Red) River was first used in pottery production by the Hitites prior to 1700BC and continues as an art form today. Watch a master demonstrate how to make a pot, and watch the the painters and glazers apply their delicate patterns. Have a go at the potter’s wheel yourself and make your own unique pot if you wish. - Pasabag - In Paşabağı (also known as Monks Valley because of the Chapel of Saint Simeon found there) wander through the unusual clusters of multi-headed mushroom-shaped “fairy chimneys” (rock formations).
- Devrent Valley - Devrent Valley (“Imagination Valley”) - a stunning valley where you can spot natural rock formations in many recognisable shapes, including the famous camel-shaped rock. Use your imagination and see what other shapes you can find.

A MUST tour and guide in Cappadocia! - A wonderful experience from beginning to end! Byram (sp?) is a knowledgeable, funny, and considerate guide!! Try to get him! He kept a diverse group together in a harmonious way. He took great care to ensure we were well informed and he kept us on track in a gentle way.
The sights gave us a deep appreciation of the geological and human history and culture of the Cappadocia region.

The Best red tour in Capadokya - “I went on the Red Tour guided by Bayram Aytekin; it was spectacular—he explains everything you see around you.”“Besides sharing the history, he is a very fun and warm person. He was always attentive to me, making sure I didn’t get tired and offering me options, since I had a delicate surgery in the past. Highly recommended—if I come back, I would definitely look for him again.”

Too good - Guide name Bayram
We had such a great experience with our guide Bayram! He shared very accurate and interesting information throughout the tour, making everything easy to understand. He was extremely friendly, clear in his explanations, and had a great sense of humor that made the whole experience even more enjoyable. You can really feel his passion for what he does. Highly recommended!

MAGIC! DO IT. - Highly recommend! Great tour of so many magical places. Made it easy to see many sights that would have been complicated and more expensive to coordinate on our own. Elif was a very informative and fun tour guide! She is super knowledgeable about geology, Cappadocia, and all things wonderfully Turkish. Make sure to have your questions ready! And thank you to Mustafa our tour bus driver!

Best guide Bayram. Good food and superb cappedoccia views - We had stay in salkem caves in goreme. Hotel suggested advice tours for cappedoccia day tour. We decided for red tour which is half day tour with all entrance fees included.
Best part of tour apart from cappedoccia itself
1. Tour guide Bayram. Extremely knowledgeable guy with good spoken English and wealth of knowledge. He gave all insights for every site historical. Logical and geographical facts. Hats off
2. Lunch at han restaurant. Good food. Extensive dessert. Cold mezzes. And hot food. And best part is that its included in red tour price.
I would suggest when you are at goreme. Don't think twice before booking from advice tours. Others might be cheaper but I heard of horrible experiences. They are fare priced.

Incredible experience with Bayram - So interesting tour around the most important places of Cappadocia. Our tour guide Bayram was amazing, he tells the history in an interesting funny way that makes you understand how people lived here and why Türkiye is such and important country, also he was so helpfull with our questions and demands. We had free time in each spot, enough to explore and take pictures but not so much to get bored. The meal was included in the price and it was delicious, I was not expecting it to be so good. I highly recomend it and if I come back I will make another tour with them. Almost 7h of tour that felt like a blink ;)
