Cappadocia Short Break

Cappadocia Short Break

From $ 760 AUD

Description

Travel toTurkey and experience the rural culture of the Cappadocia region. A series of volcanic eruptions resulted in a landscape of porous rocks known as fairy chimneys, now the ideal hotspot for a balloon ride. The elements carved the terrain of Goreme, and later, the people discovered they too could carve the rocks into homes and churches. With a local guide who knows all the fantastic tales of old, discover Cappadocia’s many legends from the Byzantine era in this Short Break adventure.

Itinerary

ITINERARY CHANGES Our itineraries are updated regularly throughout the year based on customer feedback and to reflect the current situation in each destination. The information included in this Essential Trip Information may therefore differ from when you first booked your trip. It's important that you review this information prior to travel so that you have the latest updates. Due to weather, local conditions, transport schedules, public holidays, political unrest or other factors, further changes may be necessary to your itinerary once in-country. Your group leader or local representative will keep you up to date with any such changes once your trip is underway. OPTIONAL ACTIVITIES A selection of optional activities that have been popular with past travellers are listed in the day-to-day itinerary. This isn't an exhaustive list and should be used as a guide only for some of what might be available. Prices are approximate, are for entrance fees only, and don’t include transport to and from the sites or local guides unless indicated. All activities are subject to availability, and maybe on a join-in basis. It may not be possible to do all the activities listed in the time available at each destination, so some pre-planning for what you are most interested in is advised. When it's recommended that travellers pre-book these activities, look for a note in the Special Information section of the day-to-day itinerary. For most, they can either be organised independently on the day, or let your group leader or local representative know you are interested at the Welcome Meeting and they can assist. Where activities are considered medium or high risk, we work with operators whose safety and credentials we have sighted and assessed. Although it is possible that you may find the same activity cheaper with another operator on the ground, we cannot vouch for the safety or quality of that operator. Medium and high-risk activities not listed above have not been assessed by us and as such our staff and group leader or local representative are unable to assist you with organising these activities. Activities that contravene our Responsible Travel policies are also not listed. Please remember that the decision to partake in any activity not listed is at your own discretion and risk.

Day 1 - Cappadocia
Merhaba! Welcome to Cappadocia, a central region of Turkey famous for the magical fairy chimneys and near-perfect weather. Soak in the horizon at sunrise, dotted with floating hot air balloons. Visit rock-hewn churches, cave homes and incredible underground cities. You are free to arrive at any time today. If you arrive early, maybe walk through the village of Goreme and get the lay of the land. Or, if you’re a photography buff, start your Short Break with a healthy dose of behind-the-lens exploration. Your guided tours will begin tomorrow, so tonight is yours to enjoy.
Day 2 - Cappadocia
After breakfast this morning, your local guide will meet you at 9am to trekking to the region’s heart. You’ll set out to explore one of the many valleys of Cappadocia, maybe Love Valley (whose phallic-shaped formations are great for a giggle-induced icebreaker) or Red Valley(nestled within Goreme National Park and named after the other worldly red-hued landscape).Talk to your guide about how far and wide you would like to hike this morning. You’ll then enjoy free time for lunch in the village of Goreme, a spectacular valley town carved into volcanic rock and shaped by erosion. After lunch, you’ll conclude with a visit to the UNESCO Open Air Museum, with its many rock-cut churches and fascinating artworks from the Byzantine era. This evening is yours to explore. Consider a visit to an ancient Caravanserai and witness the mystical dance of the whirling dervishes(Sema ceremony).

Today, we head underground. After brekkie at your hotel this morning,you’ll bepicked up at 9am. Discover Kaymakli Underground City with your guide (only open to visitors since 1964) and walk through the subterranean corridors, tunnels and caves that make up this fascinating destination. From here, you’ll let your  imagination run wild at Devrent Valley (also known as Imaginary Valleyor Pink Valley) known for its whimsical rock formations. Make a stop at Pasabag Monks Valley and check out the three-headed fairy chimneys, the result of volcanic eruptions, wind and water. Enjoy a drop of wine from a local wine house or grab a bottle to go and watch the sunset over the mystic landscape.
