Why choose this itinerary
This six-day route covers three regions, Istanbul, Cappadocia, and Ephesus, and it works because three domestic flights are included: Istanbul to Kayseri, Kayseri to Izmir, and Izmir back to Istanbul. Day 1 is arrival and a free day; Day 2 is the Istanbul Classics tour through Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque, the Blue Mosque, and the city’s other Byzantine and Ottoman landmarks. Day 3 begins with a 4:00 AM pickup for the early flight to Kayseri or Nevsehir and goes straight into the North Cappadocia tour, including Devrent Valley and Pasabag, with the night spent in a cave hotel.
Day 4 is where this itinerary separates from a two-region Istanbul and Cappadocia plan. After the South Cappadocia tour, which opens at Red Valley and its rock-cut churches, you fly to Izmir via Istanbul and overnight in Kuşadası. That positions you for Day 5 in Ephesus, walking Curetes Street to the Temple of Hadrian and beyond, before the flight back to Istanbul. Day 6 is the departure transfer. An optional hot-air balloon flight is available on the morning of Day 4.
It suits history-focused first-timers who want Greco-Roman Ephesus alongside Istanbul’s Byzantine and Ottoman monuments and Cappadocia’s landscapes, and who would rather accept one pre-dawn start and a full schedule than give up a region.
Highlights:
- Guided tour of Istanbul’s Byzantine and Ottoman landmarks
- Explore fairy chimneys and rock-cut churches in Cappadocia
- Optional hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia’s valleys (extra cost applies)
- Visit the ancient city of Hierapolis and Pamukkale’s travertine terraces
