Hotel Pick-up
Pick-up from your hotel around 09:00 to 10:00, and you can customise the time to suit your schedule.
Kaymakli Underground City
Tour the Kaymakli Underground City, one of the most fascinating underground settlements in Cappadocia, carved deep into the soft volcanic rock.
Sahinefendi (Sobesos)
Drive to Sahinefendi, where we see Byzantine-period mosaic art and an archaeological excavation site. The villages in the valleys, surrounded by table-top mountains, are spectacular.
Keslik Monastery and Mustafapasa
Continue to Keslik Monastery near Cemil, which hides its frescoes behind a very thin smoke layer, then visit Mustafapasa (Sinasos), an old Greek town with fine examples of late Greek settlement and architecture.
