Tour to Cappadocia Enjoyed by All
International Center organized a trip to Cappadocia on October 28 and 29. There were 34 participants in the tour and they spent a night at Burcu Hotel in Ürgüp. The 50 dollar cost included transportation, accommodation and two meals a day. A pottery shop, Göreme Open Air Museum, Kaymaklı Derinkuyu Underground City, Uçhisar Castle, a carpet shop and a winery were among the places visited.

Tour participants were very pleased with the experience and they all had a wonderful time! They expect to join more of these types of outings. Participants were especially pleased that it was an affordable experience.

For many, it was an excellent way to meet people and see a bit of Turkey. In general, preferences were for more of the museums and cultural sights than shopping. Some found it to be too short a trip.

The whole trip was excellent. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and the service received in the hotel was great.

The future trip will be to Safranbolu-Amasra on November 21-22.
