What people are saying about Çavuşin

Excellent experience skiing in Erciyes, our guide Ertu was the best!! he picked us up from the hotel on time, took us to the Ski center and gave us recommendations. On our way back he took us to the best spot on the Red Valley to watch the sunset and also a panoramic view in Goreme town. I highly recommend to book this excursion with him.

It is one of the best experiences I have had. If you come to Turkey, something that you definitely have to do is ski and if you do it with Cappadocia Adventures it is the best, good prices, they pick you up and drop you off at the hotel. Thank you!

The experience far exceeds my expectations. The sceneries during sunset was beautiful. The horses were tame. There were few stops and the guide helped took pictures of us. Overall the tour was well-organised and on-time.

It's a very unique experience and I highly recommend everyone to give it a go. The view at the summit is insane as well.

The host is so nice and kind, and the camels are healthy and gentle. We really enjoyed the tour!!
