MyTrip Travel & Turkey Tours · Uçhisar
MyTrip Travel runs this red tour from a cave hotel in Uçhisar itself, with 30 minutes at the castle and then the north valleys, Zelve and Avanos, lunch included. It suits travellers staying in Uçhisar who want a short pickup and a group of 17 at most.
MyTrip Travel & Turkey Tours lists its departure point as the Cappadocia Cave Resort & Spa in Uçhisar, with hotel pickup on a set list. That makes it the natural pick if you're sleeping in Uçhisar and don't want to start the day with a round of Göreme hotels. The route: Uchisar Castle, Love Valley, Paşabağ, Zelve, Devrent and Avanos, with lunch and "all fees and taxes" in the $58. Guides work in English, Spanish and Korean. It's rated 4.8 from 107 reviews, and the most recent ones we could read date from 2025.
At the castle you get 30 minutes, flagged "free admission". That's tight for the summit (10 to 15 minutes each way plus the kiosk queue), but doable if you go straight up and skip the stalls. The flag only says the operator adds no charge; the castle ticket itself, reported at 320 to 400 TL in 2025-26, roughly €7 to €9, is sold by the Uçhisar municipality. Ask MyTrip whether the kiosk is covered. If you're staying in Uçhisar, you can also climb at 7 am when the castle opens and keep the tour stop for photos.
Two things the listing is honest about, and you should be too. It says outright that the day includes two shopping stops: a pottery and ceramics demonstration centre and, "rarely", a leather products centre. One 4-star guest found the leather stop awkward. And the adult age band runs from 8 to 65, so older travellers should message the operator before booking. The price is flat, $58 per person with no group-size tiers.
Meet at the Cappadocia Cave Resort & Spa or get collected from a hotel on the operator's pickup list.
Photos from the base, or a quick climb to the summit if you move fast.
The tall, smooth chimneys of Love Valley from the viewpoint.
The capped chimneys of Paşabağ, then the cave village of Zelve, ticket included.
The camel rock and other shapes in Imagination Valley.
Lunch and a pottery demonstration in Avanos, then the drive back to Uçhisar.
★★★★★At each location, he pointed out the important details (as he already explained the background while travelling) which gave us a lot more time to explore on our own. Anes also made sure there was no pressure to buy anything from the shops, which was a big relief.
