3.Hiking in Termessos Ancient City

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 152 reviews · 4 hours · from $62

Review of Antalya’s Termessos hiking tour, with mountain ruins, a dramatic theater, guide details, price, effort, and practical tips.

“Onder was the best guide. As someone who is interested in archaeology and not interested in those "see as much as possible in very little time"-tours, the Termessos tour was perfect. Onder is a funny and very knowledgeable guide. My only complaint is that we didn't have enough time to explore every single stone in Termessos. Could easily be an hour longer..but it was enough time to see the areas which are best accessible.”

6.Rose Valley Sunset Hiking in Cappadocia

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 26 reviews · 1 hour 15 minutes (approx.) · from $10

Review of Cappadocia’s Rose Valley sunset hike, with cave churches, hotel pickup details, guide tips, price value, and booking advice.

“I would give the rose valley a 10/10. Stunning scenery. Lovely trail through, up and down the mountains. You can’t put a price on the beauty of this area. I’d give 5 stars for the scenery but one for the guide. I didn’t need a guide for this - I should have just got a taxi to drop me there and used google maps. First the advertised name of this tour ‘rose valley sunset walk with hotel pick up’ doesn’t actually include a hotel pick up. We had to meet in town. We were there on time but waited 5 minutes for the driver and then a further 20 minutes…”

7.Red & Rose Valley Sunset Hiking Tour with a Trekking Dog “Oscar”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 23 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $54

Hike Cappadocia’s Red and Rose Valleys at sunset, visit old churches, meet Oscar the dog, and enjoy a small-group walk from Goreme.

“The tour name was 'Red & Rose Valley Sunset Hiking Tour with Trekking Dog Oscar'. Personally I dont like walking tours very much, because I prefer to determine my own walking pace. You can easily hike the Red & Rose Valley by yourself without a guide. But after seeing the advertisement of this tour I got very enthusiastic. I love walking dogs, so thought it would be very special to be walking with a dog in this landscape. Unfortunately there is no dog on the tour at all. If I would have known I would never have booked this tour, just false advertising.”
