We also liked the buffet restaurant he took us to where we had a hearty Turkish meal at reasonable prices. The hotel pick-up and drop was very useful, esp to avoid the more expensive option of touring through cabs. The entry ticket prices to the attractions are not covered as part of the tour but one would end up paying more for taxis than this tour price so we were content. The attractions covered are marvellous and the tour was comprehensive.…”

There was expected than longer treks involved with a toddler and aged parents which we would not have gone through with had we known earlier. Our tour guide also wasn't very happy with the fact that there were members in the group tour who were making it slower. If so , shouldn't have advised this tour as child friendly with moderate amount of walking involved in the description , especially for tourists who have never been to Cappadocia before.”
