    Do you go to the House of Mary?

      The House of the Virgin Mary is not included in the itinerary; the visit covers Ephesus only.

    Vicky

    Asked on January 14th, 2026

    I like the sounds of this tour, but I was wondering if you have a small tour group I don't like to go with more than 12 to 15 people

    Group size
    • Dorak ToursOperatorWritten January 2026

      Unfortunately, for the date you are interested in, you are currently the first potential applicant. However, the same tour is also available with an April 8 departure, and two participants are already registered for that date. If this date works for you, you may consider joining this tour.

      If you are only available for a April 22 departure, we would like to recommend our "Sacred Pathways: Tracing the Legacy of the Seven Churches – 10 Day Tour." This tour also currently has two participants registered.

      Vicky

      TravelerWritten January 2026

      I am interested in small group Tour only. 10 days with Cappadocia balloon trip as an extension.

    • Dorak ToursOperatorWritten January 2026

      Unfortunately, we do not have a 10-day tour including Cappadocia that I can offer you in the first half of May. However, I would like to let you know that all the tours I have recommended are small group tours.
      If you have a bit more flexibility with your time, you may consider The Wonders of Turkey: Classical Turkey – 13 Day Tour, which is one of our most popular tours. The group currently has 6 participants.

    Asked on January 12th, 2026

    Is there an option for Hot Air ballooning whilst in Cappadocia?

    Tour Details
    • Dorak ToursOperatorWritten January 2026

      Of course, you can do the hot air balloon activity in Cappadocia, and we highly recommend experiencing it while you are there. As the flights are subject to weather conditions, we do not recommend booking in advance. You can join the activity by making the payment on site through your guide.

    Accommodation

      As a result of the high demand from our guests, we consistently select cave hotels for accommodation in Cappadocia.

    Asked on March 25th, 2025

    Can I store luggage during the tour?

    Travel Support
    • Dorak ToursOperatorWritten March 2025

    Day 5: Kusadasi/Pamukkale: Can we visit the house of the Virgin Mary? Cappadocia: Do we do Cappadocia in one day? How many hours long is the day?

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • Dorak ToursOperatorWritten March 2025

      The Virgin Mary tour is optional and will take place based on the majority decision of the group. You will have 2 nights and 1 full day in Cappadocia. Tours operate from 9 AM to 6 PM. The Whirling Dervishes show in Konya is optional and can be purchased. Our guide will assist you with this. The single room price is USD 2,096.

    Josep

    Asked on February 20th, 2025

    Can I arrange transfers from the airport to the hotel?

    Flights / Transfers
    • Dorak ToursOperatorWritten February 2025

      Yes, roundtrip transfers can be arranged for your arrival and departure.

  • P

    Pauline

    Asked on February 18th, 2025

    Would you be able to pick me up at the airport at this time? The second question is if we can take part in this tour which begins on April 9. I notice that you do not actually start until after breakfast on April 10. My plan would be to get picked up at the airport after arriving at 4:40am, go to the hotel booked by your tour, check in to the room, refresh myself, then join the tour group for breakfast on April 10 morning. Is this possible?

    Flights / Transfers
    Tour Details
    • Dorak ToursOperatorWritten February 2025

      We can consider April 9 as the arrival day. The tour will start on April 10 in the morning when you meet the guide. We can arrange your airport transfer based on your arrival time, regardless of the hour. However, I would like to point out that the hotel reservation is from check-in on April 9 to check-out on April 10. When you arrive on April 10, your reservation will not be valid. Since it will be a new day, if you wish to stay at the hotel, you will need to pay an additional fee.

  • K

    Kevin

    Asked on February 4th, 2025

    Is it possible to do the hot air balloon ride in cappadocia?

    Tour Details
    • Dorak ToursOperatorWritten February 2025

      You can take a hot air balloon tour in Cappadocia, depending on the weather conditions. I see that the date you are interested in is in May. I expect the weather to be good in May, so I don't think there will be any issues with the balloon tours.

  • A

    Amanda

    Asked on December 31st, 2024

    Are optional tours available for purchase during the tour?

    Other
    Tour Details
    • Dorak ToursOperatorWritten December 2024

      Yes, you can decide to join optional tours when you arrive, and payment can be made at that time.
