Day 1: Red Tour
Start your day by visiting Devrent Valley, also known as "Imagination Valley," famous for its surreal and unique rock formations that resemble various animal shapes. Your next stop is Paşabağı (Monks Valley), also called Priests Valley, where Christian monks chose to live in cells and churches symbolizing the Holy Trinity within the three-headed fairy chimneys. Here, you can observe the entire formation process of the fairy chimneys.

Next, proceed to Avanos, Cappadocia’s pottery center, situated on the banks of the Red River. Before visiting the Göreme Open-Air Museum, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant.

The Göreme Open-Air Museum is home to some of the world’s most important Byzantine cave churches, where monks and nuns lived a monastic life dating back to the 3rd century. You will see some of the best-preserved Byzantine cave paintings and frescoes, spanning from the Iconoclastic period to the end of Seljuk rule.

Continue to Esentepe Panorama, offering breathtaking views of Göreme valley and village — including fairy chimneys, rock formations, and cave houses. End your day at Uçhisar Castle, the highest point in the Göreme region, a massive rock offering stunning views.

After the tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel, where you will stay overnight in a Cave Suite Hotel.
