“Very positive experience, a journey through the most characteristic attractions of north Cappadocia. Jakub is a great guide, very knowledgeable and passionate about the region. He is open to any question and takes the time to explain everything in detail. Only negative point is the provided lunch which does not live up to expectations, Cappadocia has much more to offer. Please consider offering a tour option excluding lunch or in a better location”

He was friendly and kind enough to take photos for us - he was flexible to suit our mood - if we were tired he could reduce the walking. The food on the tour was great and so was the pottery and carpet tour. Love Cagatay - he was awesome.”

“The tour started well with visits of Monk's valley and the open air museum. The guide was friendly and gave us some interesting information. After that, there was a photo stop at imagination valley followed by the pottery workshop (and subsequent time in a shop). The pottery demonstration was interesting, the shop less so. Then lunch, which was OK - the kebab was a bit dry but included in the price so shouldn't complain. Then Uchisar castle - another photo stop viewpoint. Even if they didn't want us to go up the steep steps in case of accidents, it would have been nice to see the town itself. Finally, instead…”
