10/10 ! We had a wonderful time during our horseback riding tour! We stayed in Goreme for only a few days and I’m so glad we were able to book this on such short notice. We received round trip pick up from our hotel as well which is super convenient. When we arrived, we were given basic safety instructions on handling the horses and then paired up with our very own ride for the tour! Every horse has its own personality so I always love this part. There were also 2 guides who came with us, escorted us for about 30 min to a stop point where we got to enjoy the nice view and fresh juice. The guides were so great and patient with us, and they are very friendly! Ziya took beautiful photos of us which we absolutely appreciated! The ride back was nice too, you see the sunset on your way back. This tour was great and I would definitely recommend it to my friends.
We did the sunset tour into the red and rose valley. It was around 3 hours. We did it with our 8 and 6 year old kids. None of us has horse riding experience. We absolutely loved it. The horses were very calm. Each of us had a horse. One helper held the horse with my 6 year old the whole time to make sure he was safe. The trek was very unique and beautiful. You get a 15 minute break in the middle to get juices and can visit a church. The helpers also then took time to take pictures of our entire family in groups and one on one. Highly recommend
Absolutely incredible ride! Sena and Kiraz were amazing guides and can cater for all levels. We loved the fast pace, beautiful scenery and fun paths around the valleys. 10/10 and highly recommend!
We had such an amazing time! The route was very unique and gave such a wonderful view during the sunset. Our guide was extremely helpful and the entire staff is amazing!
A huge thank you to Murat, Sena and Güneş (my beautiful horse) 🥰 I had the most amazing time on my 4-hour private horse riding tour!! As a veterinary nurse and animal lover, the horses care is the most important thing to me, it was very clear to me that Murat and his team look after their horses incredibly well and their care is the top priority. All the horses I met were absolutely gorgeous and very placid and well behaved! As someone who has an intermediate level of riding experience, I appreciate that they took me on an interesting route that challenged me while still giving me ample opportunity to take in the gorgeous landscape. I'm sure that Murat knows all the paths like the back of his hand, very handy for taking all people of varying degrees of horse riding experience! Special shout out to Sena as well who was an absolute ray of sunshine and so incredibly helpful in answering my initial questions prior to booking, then also translating throughout the tour. Her energy is unmatched and she made the whole experience even more wonderful! I would recommend Doğa Binicilik Merkezi to anyone wanting to take a horse ride tour in Cappadocia, whether you're a more experienced rider or have never ridden a horse in your life! These guys will take care of you 🥰 Teşekkürler team!! See you next time I'm in Göreme 😁
