Tour Program Overview
Hotel Pickup & Transfer
The adventure begins with a transfer from your hotel in Cappadocia to the ATV base. Pickup times vary depending on sunset time, but you will be informed in advance.
Safety Briefing & Practice
Once at the base station, you’ll receive a helmet and a short training session to get familiar with the controls. This ensures everyone feels confident and prepared before setting off.
Ride Through Sword Valley
Your first stop is Sword Valley (Kılıçlar Vadisi). This narrow valley features fairy chimneys shaped like swords and other sharp-edged rock formations. The path through here is exciting yet safe, ideal for warming up your driving skills.
Pass By Love Valley
Next, continue toward Love Valley, known for its tall, pillar-like fairy chimneys. The unusual natural forms here make for excellent photo opportunities. While there’s no extended stop, the panoramic views will leave a lasting impression.
Explore Çavuşin Village
The route then leads to Çavuşin, a historic village famous for its ancient cave houses and churches carved into the rock. You’ll make a short stop here to stretch your legs and explore the area on foot. It’s a peaceful moment between valleys, offering a glimpse into Cappadocia’s rural charm.
Drive Through White & Red Valleys
As the sun begins to lower, you’ll ride through the White and Red Valleys. These valleys get their names from the soft colors of the rocks—white tuff and red clay—which shift hues beautifully as daylight fades. The paths here are wider, allowing a more relaxed ride as you soak in the surroundings.
Sunset Stop At Rose Valley
The final destination is Rose Valley (Güllüdere Vadisi), one of the most picturesque places to watch the sunset in Cappadocia. The rocks here glow in shades of pink, orange, and red as the sun sets behind the horizon. You’ll have time to relax, take photos, or simply enjoy the quiet atmosphere before returning.
Tour Duration
Total duration is around 2 hours, including stops and breaks. Sunset times vary throughout the year, so the exact start time of the tour is adjusted accordingly.
Departure Times
While the Sunset ATV Tour is known for its evening schedule, it can also be organized at various times during the day. However, the golden hour views make the sunset option the most popular and visually rewarding.
Safety Information
All participants are required to wear helmets. The route is carefully chosen to avoid steep or hazardous areas, making the tour suitable even for those with no prior ATV experience. A guide will ride with the group to provide support and ensure the group stays on track.
What To Bring
- Comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing
- Sunglasses or goggles (dust protection)
- Closed-toe shoes
- Camera or smartphone
- A light jacket (evenings may be cool)
ATVs may stir up dust along the way, so it's best to avoid wearing white or light-colored clothing. Bandanas or scarves can help cover your mouth and nose during dusty stretches.
