    Dave

    Asked on February 4th, 2025

    What would you rate on the hike 1 to 10 from difficulty or easy walk?

    Tour Details
    • Explore!OperatorWritten February 2025

      We've graded the walks on our tour of Cappadocia as moderate - you should have a good level of fitness and ideally have prior hiking experience to take part. Some routes have occasional, short sections of steep ascent or descent. All of the treks follow undulating trails and the terrain can be rocky and loose in places, particularly on the ascents and descents.

    • Explore!OperatorWritten January 2025

      Walking grade: Moderate. Walks on 6 days for between 2.5 - 6 hours each day. The trails are generally on well trodden paths and are gently undulating or following the course of a valley with some occassional steeper sections. Total distance: 73 kilometres. Max walking altitude: 1400 meters.

    Joshua

    Asked on February 27th, 2024

    I'm interested in Cappadocia tour. Do you have a single room option (how much) or do singles share a room (how do you choose people for shared rooms)? When do you start and finish (time) your tour? Can I get more information about instalment payments?

    Accommodation
    Payments
    Single supplement
    Tour Details
    • Explore!OperatorWritten February 2024

      We have single room options. While travelling alone you can choose either to share a TWIN room with someone else (with another lady) or pay single supplement (£245) and have your own room. The Tour Leader plans to meet the group in the hotel reception at 6pm for the welcome meeting. The trip starts in Goreme and ends after breakfast at the hotel in Goreme on day 8.
