Carefully curated activities and routes to discover the magic of Cappadocia. Each experience brings you closer to the region's unique culture and natural beauty.


Drift above Cappadocia's extraordinary fairy chimneys at sunrise. Feel the ancient landscape in a way that nothing else can offer.

Discover wines crafted from grapes grown in the region's volcanic soil, tasted in a historic cellar with stories from local producers.

Descend into the layered depths of Derinkuyu and Kaymaklı. This mysterious world, carved thousands of years ago, transports you beyond time.

A guided visual journey through Cappadocia's most photogenic valleys during golden hour — long shadows, warm light, hidden angles.

Walk silently through Pigeon, Love and Ihlara valleys. Each has its own colour, scent and sound. Learn the secrets impossible to describe without a guide.

Follow the trails between fairy chimneys toward sunset. Not about speed — it's the feeling of freedom that leads the way.

Cook traditional dishes with fresh local ingredients in a family kitchen. You won't learn a recipe — you'll learn muscle memory and family secrets.

Cycle along Cappadocia's quiet village roads and valley trails. Set your own tempo — the landscape does the rest.

Sema is a living prayer of the Mevlevi tradition. Between spinning white robes and the breath of the ney, you witness a moment where time stands still.

Step into an Anatolian night accompanied by local musicians and colourful folk dances. Table, music and dance — all three together.

Explore North Cappadocia's iconic sites in a single day: Göreme Open Air Museum, Paşabağ, Devrent Valley and Avanos. The stone memory of the region unfolds step by step.

Dive into the silence of Derinkuyu Underground City, Ihlara Valley and Selime Cathedral. One day isn't enough to explore South Cappadocia's deepest layers — but it's the perfect start.

Pass through Cappadocia's quietest corridors to find hidden valleys, rock-cut churches and the clear river of Ihlara. Silence is a gift here.

Discover Cappadocia at your own rhythm, on your own chosen route. Guide, vehicle and program are designed entirely for you.

Drift between the fairy chimneys on horseback. Feel these ancient lands the same way as those who first crossed them.

Explore Cappadocia's rugged terrain and hidden spots in 4×4 vehicles. The hard-to-reach valleys become accessible this way.

Reach Cappadocia's finest viewpoints at sunrise or sunset. Light and earth come together in these moments.

In Avanos by the Red River, watch the hands of a pottery master, then shape the clay yourself. Firing, patience and hands complete the rest.

Cleanse with foam, steam and warmth in a historic hammam. Not just the body — the mind also rests. This is a ritual.

Beneath a balloon drifting over Cappadocia's ancient sky, beside a car stepped out of history — not just a photograph, but a poem.
Rhythm
Some mornings begin early — you rise with the sun in a balloon basket. Some days you just want to walk, to quietly listen to a valley. Some evenings call for sitting long at the table, slowly sipping local wine. Both are possible here. We can arrange a program for you throughout your stay — or simply hand you a map and let you draw your own route.
Planning
At Anitya Cave House we maintain close relationships with local guides and tour operators. Write to us to create the right program for you — from balloons to bicycles, from cellars to kitchens, we can arrange it all.
