Day 1 – Scenic Journey & Cappadocia’s Wonders
Start your adventure with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Alanya, followed by a relaxing drive inland with a breakfast stop at Tyrnaz Tepe.
Your first main stop is the Tatlarin underground city, where early civilizations once lived and worshipped in secret. Step into the mysterious tunnels and visit a well-preserved underground church.
Later, enjoy a local lunch at Dede Efendi Restaurant (optional, extra cost), and then head to Ortahisar Panorama for breathtaking views of the central fortress and surrounding valleys.
The day continues with stops at Uchisar Castle, Göreme Panorama, and the historic Cavusin Valley — where abandoned cave houses blend into the rock.

After breakfast at the hotel, visit the Devrent (Imagination) Valley, home to whimsical rock formations shaped like animals and figures.
Continue to Avanos, a charming town known for its ancient pottery-making tradition. Watch a live demonstration and visit a local onyx workshop to see how beautiful decorative pieces are made.
