About this tour

Spend two hours in the saddle winding through Cappadocia's valleys, past the tall cone-shaped rock spires known as fairy chimneys and the region's carved volcanic hills. The horses are calm and the guides ride alongside you, so beginners are just as welcome as experienced riders. You can book the sunset ride for softer light and cooler air, or an anytime slot that runs year-round. Riding gear and round-trip hotel transfers within Cappadocia are included.

Good to Know Before You Ride

Rides run at several times through the day, and the sunrise and sunset slots are the ones that book out first, both for the light over the valleys and the cooler air. We recommend reserving your time ahead, especially in the busy summer and fall months, so you get the slot you want. Transfers pick you up from your hotel in Cappadocia and bring you back afterward.

Come dressed to ride. Long pants or jeans keep your legs from chafing against the saddle, and closed-toe shoes or boots with a low heel give you a better grip in the stirrups. A long-sleeved top helps with the sun, and in the colder months layers are the way to go. Skip anything loose or flowing that could snag on the horse or the tack. Helmets are handed out at the stable.
