The classic full-day Red Tour covers the northern and central highlights of Cappadocia — the heritage sites that put the region on UNESCO's World Heritage list. Travelling in a small minibus with a licensed English-speaking guide, you visit Göreme Open-Air Museum (the most important Byzantine cave-church complex in Turkey), Uçhisar Castle for panoramic views, Pasabag (Monks Valley) and Devrent (Imagination Valley) for the strangest fairy chimneys in the region, and Avanos for traditional pottery. Lunch at a local restaurant, all entrance fees, and hotel pickup included. The essential first-day tour for anyone new to Cappadocia.
help Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Red Tour include? expand_more
Göreme Open-Air Museum, Çavuşin village, Paşabağ (Monks Valley), Devrent (Imagination) Valley, lunch in Avanos with a pottery demonstration and Ürgüp Three Beauties, with an English-speaking guide and all entrance fees.
Is the Red Tour or the Green Tour better? expand_more
The Red Tour covers the classic northern sites and the Open-Air Museum with more short stops and less walking; the Green Tour goes south to the underground city and Ihlara Valley with a longer walk. Many guests do both on consecutive days.

It is a full-day tour of about 8 hours. Pickup from your hotel is around 09:30–10:00 and you are back at your hotel in the late afternoon.
Is lunch included? expand_more
Yes. A traditional Turkish lunch at a local restaurant is included in the price; drinks during lunch are paid separately.
Are entrance fees included? expand_more
Yes. Entrance fees to all museums and sites on the itinerary are included, so you do not need to buy tickets on the day.
Is the guide English-speaking? expand_more
Yes. The tour is led by a licensed, English-speaking professional guide. Other languages may be available on request for private groups.
What kind of vehicle is used and how big is the group? expand_more
A comfortable air-conditioned minibus (up to 16 seats). Groups are small, which keeps the pace relaxed and leaves time for photos.

Yes. The walking parts are on easy paths, but comfortable shoes are recommended. Children pay the child rate (4–17 years); children under 4 join free.
What should I bring? expand_more
Comfortable walking shoes, a hat and sunscreen in summer, a warm layer in winter, and a bottle of water. A camera is essential – the viewpoints are spectacular.
