First Impressions Of and How To Get To CAPPADOCIA | TURKEY
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 сер 2022
- Cappadocia is one of the most popular places to visit in Turkiye and easily one of our favourites too. With rock castles and cave hotels everywhere, it's an incredible, unique, otherworldly landscape.
In this vlog we show you how to easily get to Cappadocia via bus and share our first impressions of the town Göreme in Cappadocia after walking all around it. We're not sponsored by any company, we just hope our vlogs can help with others' travel plans especially when visiting Turkey.
🚌 Bus tickets (Kamil Koç)
▸ www.flixbus.com.tr/
As mentioned in the video, it's cheaper to book at the otogar (bus station) directly in person but we used this partner site to Kamil Koç to book our first intercity tickets online for convenience and did the rest directly in person. They will require your passport and Turkish mobile number in person to send you your ticket as a PDF. Most counter staff around Turkey we found could speak enough English to communicate date and time of travel, destination plus seat number that you want. Remember to check the PDF details that all your information is correct before you leave.
🛌 Our accommodation in Göreme, Cappadocia
▸ www.airbnb.com/rooms/11836114
Very convenient central location but as it is a cave hotel, every few days a lil bit of cave rock would fall onto the seat area from the ceiling (thankfully none on the bed)!
🍽️ Lunch at Gurme Kebab Restaurant
Address: Gafferli mahallesi, Müze Cd. no:38, 50180 Göreme/Goreme/Nevşehir

Delicious food and friendly staff, say hi to Crazy Chef if you bump into him from us :)
🛍️ Ottoman Gift Shop
Address: no :5, Müze Cd., 50180 Göreme/Nevşehir Merkez/Nevşehir
There are tons of gift shops around Cappadocia. This one is near Gurme Kebab Restaurant. NB: Most zultanite that you'll find at these places will be man-made so do your research if you're after actual real zultanite (which is incredibly rare and very expensive).
🏺 Cappadocia Cultural Antique Collection
Address: milli sokak 3 Göreme kasabası, 50180 Nevşehir
Lots of antiques and rugs inside a cave with multiple rooms to explore.
🌇 Sunset Viewpoint (Aşıklar Tepesi)
A fantastic spot overlooking amazing views of Göreme and other areas in Cappadocia. Short walk to get to the top and it was very near our cave hotel. Definitely a must-do in Cappadocia.

So cool you guys paid respect to Atatürk. He respected Kiwi soldiers so much he gave New Zealand control of Gallipoli during ANZAC Day celebrations. A great man.
Definitely, couldn't come to ankara and not visit the mausoleum 🇹🇷
Visiting Cappodocia is number 1 in my bucket list, really appreciate your video before I travel there in the future.
No worries we have quite a few videos hope they're helpful to you. Cappadocia is an amazing place 👍
This place could be a movie set for one of the Star Wars episode, so unique. Love Mr Crazy Chef's 👨🍳demo on the "pesky" kebab and cap of the dining experience with the flaming coffee🔥☕. Thank you for sharing your initial day at Cappodocia and have a great week ahead!
We headed to Matakana Market yesterday morning and had a lovely lunch at the Matakana Market Kitchen Restaurant, with the weather being really good!
Ooo lovely Matakana is such a nice spot. There are some really awesome accommodations right by the water there. Also there's a bunch of really spectacular coastal walks.
Cappadocia is such an amazing place.. had high expectations going in and it did not disappoint. Incredible scenery and the testy kebab was delicious 🤤
You guys are beautiful human beings. Enjoy your time in Turkey.
Thank you that's too kind 😁🙏❤️
Fantastic. I am loving the Turkey Tour. Loving the food also. I especially love your room where you are staying at in Cappodocia. I love the Archways inside, made of stone. I Love the cave-like dwellings.
😁🤙 always wanted to stay in a cave hotel so it was cool to be able to experience this finally 👍
Your Cappadocia vlog was breath taking!!
Will be waiting for your next adventures there. 😎🇹🇷💖✨
Thanks Peter & Yen
Thanks for watching Nikki. Cappadocia is an amazing area, thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Lots of vlogs from there on the way hahaha
So stunning, Turkey never disappoints, just like you guys 😃
😁 thanks Daryl you're always too kind. Cappadocia is definitely one of those places in the world you can't miss. So much cool scenery, quite a few vlogs from there on the way hahaha
@@PeterandYen we're all looking forward to all of your Turkish adventures coming out over the next weeks and months. You're too intrepid not to have done heaps 😃
The excitement you get when you walk through the streets of a new country is so addictive. Always love that feeling of seeing new stuff 😁
@@PeterandYen so true 👍. I remember arriving in South Korea and Oman where we lived and worked for 8 and 2 years respectively so vividly even years later 😃
Must have been so much fun especially seeing the contrast of Oman vs south Korea since they're two very different countries
Appealing cover video! The color composition, the model… Looks so fascinating beautiful to introduce the country! ❤️
Thank you that's very kind 😊✌️
I enjoyed watching your Turkey series of videos and Cappadocia especially. I have never been to Turkiye yet but it's definitely at the top of my list. It's awesome how you both used local Turkish words and phrases , I'm sure the local people you came across on your travels appreciated it :)
Thanks so much! Turkey is amazing and Cappadocia was one of our fave places in Turkey 🙂 We managed to learn quite a few Turkish words and phrases and enjoyed speaking with locals that way.. at least attempting to 😆👍
oh wow....very interesting dish from Mr Crazy chef. Seems every part of Turkey's amazing...love it😍😍😍
💯 Turkey is amazing and that food was so good 🤤🤤🤤
Hi Peter & Yen!
Amazing view & the food looks scrumptious. Enjoy the rest of your stay in Turkey.
Thank you 😊 we've just come back to New Zealand today. Been an incredible time in Turkey. But we have many more months of videos from Turkey still to come 😁✌️
Looks like you had a great introduction to Cappadocia - can't wait for the next vlog now😊
Our time in Cappadocia was so much fun. We've got 7 vlogs in total from the area hope you enjoy em Rob 😁👍
Cappadocia is definitely one of the top places we want to visit on our bucket list.
The view is super breathtaking! Super jealous of your hotel stay and your lunch experience with the famous chef, haha... Thanks for taking us along. 😊
Can 100% recommend Cappadocia! Such a cool and unique place.. we had the most amazing time there 🥰 Hope you get to visit one day too!
Wow love the idea of staying in a cave hotel! Love the breakfast terrace as well! what a nice view from up there 👍
The view was awesome, landscape in cappadocia is so surreal 😍
Wrappin’ up the specialty bread with the specialty kebab looked specialty yum! Was waiting and waiting for the atv’s😆… I’ll have to wait until next week. Cappadocia definitely has that Star Warsy vibe…heck why not Tatooine:) What a very very cool area… by the way, good job Peter lugging the suitcases up the sandy road 💪💪
Hahaha I'm unsure which vlog we do the ATVS anymore... we made 7 videos from Cappadocia in total maybe vlog 3. You'll see our goat friend in one coming up too 😁👍
At our last accommodation I needed to take those bags up 5 flights of narrow stairs 😂 no elevator. Work out done for the week 😂💪
Amazing scenery and interesting caves..Excellent video, guys. Fun to watch.
😁 thank you 👍 cappadocia is an amazing place
Glad you made it to my favourite part - although Turkey has many treasures. Takes me back 💕
Can see why it's your favorite part of turkey. It is an incredible landscape miss Cappadocia a lot.
@@PeterandYen Yes is other worldly. Are you going to Pamukkale too? Also great - white steps and thermal springs.
We did make it to Pamukkale, n you're right the scenery is spectacular. That vlog won't be ready for a few months though 😅
Amazing trip 😍😍 I love watching your content. So pleasing and genuine. Thank u guys ❤❤
Thanks for watching Erica appreciate it 😊🙏
Loving the scenes there. What a great sunset to end the day!
😁 such an awesome day wait till ya see this week's vlog though for the scenery
quite the presentation, i like how they involved you guys (lol well Yen) - haha again im not sure if burning the coffee wrapper :P was actually healthy hahah for your coffee XD - the town feels very chilled and laid back aye?
Town is pretty laid back during the time that we were there but we've heard tourism is down this year. Normally it's meant to be super packed. Don't mind that at all though 😂🤙
Such a great find on airbnb, I'm always in love with the unique places you guys stay at. Cappadocia does look like a set from Star Wars, the views there are incredible 😍
There are so many awesome accomodations in cappadocia. Some super cool luxury caves with swimming pools in them hahaha 😆
Such an amazing place! Looking forward to seeing what else you guys got up during your time in Cappadocia. We also stayed in Goreme and visited the sunset point. So beautiful 🤩
Such a cool town right? Man unbelievable that these formations even exist. How much longer are you guys in turkey for?
We leave tomorrow 😞
Just spending our last couple of days in Istanbul doing some shopping. Will start working on our videos once we get home.
Enjoy the last few days goes by too quick doesn't it
Big fan of your casual presenting style. Too many YT vloggers make it all about them, instead of the place that they are in. Hugely looking forward to exploring Cappadocia in May.
Thank you for the kind words Steve 🙂 Cappadocia is incredible, we hope you have the best time there! Easily one of the most awesome places we've been to date. Have you planned out your activities yet? 😁
@@PeterandYen In total I'm in Europe for six weeks, three of those are in Turkey. Much to explore.
That surprise drink/coffee you got look so cool. My husband said watching you guys reminded him the time he learnt to navigate around Japan hehehe. Thanks for the great ep.
😂 💪 no worries thanks for watching glad you enjoyed the video 😁👍
Your content is top notch! The camera quality is outstanding aswell!
Thanks Josh glad you've been enjoying our videos. Appreciate the comments 😁✌️
Yum! Testi Kebab! How was Ankara? Can't wait to visit
Love that you experience traveling by bus, we have never done it in Turkiye.
So beautiful to drive to Goreme, it is like an enchanted view. Peter we command you for walking up with luggage, when we went, we only carried bookbags and we were exhausted.
It is a show, indeed, so cool! We know we can eat it everywhere, but we are looking forward to going back to Cappadocia and eating it again there. "tasty" hahaha
Yay! We ate Icli kofte together!
Your soup is going to be super flavorful at the end of the meal.🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, Peter is in love with what he is seeing, so keep saying it over and over again! Cappadocia is unique
We didn't spend much time in Ankara. It was more a transit point for us but Ataturk's mausoleum was a must. Traveling around by bus was so comfortable and convenient 😊👍 and yes hahahah very tasty indeed both the kebab and my soup 🤣🤣🤣 Cappadocia was incredible. Definitely one of our favourite places we've visited to date!
Loved all your videos
I am from Auckland Nz
We are planning a road trip in Turkey - have taken many ideas from your videos to build our itinerary.
Thank you
That's awesome to hear Reen! We only have 3 videos left to share from Turkey but the last one has some handy things to know before visiting which hopefully you'll find helpful 🙂 when are you planning on visiting? Hope you have an amazing time in Turkey!
Amazing Video👍
Thank you 😊

😂

😂👍 yes it is
good video mate
😁👍
Elinize saglik
Her Zaman ki gibi güzel bir çekim.
Teşekkürler. Kapadokya çok güzel bir yer 😊🇹🇷❤️
Oh my word how beautiful guys ❤️
The landscape was such a pleasant shock to the system ❤️😁
Oh my gosh I forgot this video and I am still well behind on watching! Wonderful mausoleum there as they always are! Great advice on that ticket buying there! Wow complementary drinks and smacks on a bus ride! Wow! Very true about the stone room in the accommodation, with the electrical stuff running through! Always great food, international cuisine just amazing! Oh wow wow wow that kebab and the slow cooked meat looked soooooo good! What a unique way to be served a coffee! With that stone jewellery did he say what makes it change colour! Oh heck yeah I bet that landscape be ideal for movies like that! Yeah amazing view up there! Such a wonderful video!
Aw thanks for trying to catch up and watch all our Turkey adventures! Zultanite changes colour with different light sources I believe... something to do with the makeup of the stones. I believe the one we got was manmade though! The real gems are apparently super expensive and more rare than diamonds.
Yen I like your fashion style, it looks comfortable and yet stylish.
Thank you ☺️❤️❤️❤️ it's totally what I try to go for haha 😁👍
Hi! I've seen your south island vlog - visiting the place at the moment, lovely place! And now, I'm getting hook on your other videos =)
Hiya 👋😊 that's so cool, thanks so much and hope you enjoy our Turkey series too! It's a super cool country, one of our faves we've been to for sure 😊 Hope you have an amazing time in the South Island!
@@PeterandYen I am having a great time here in South Island. No photo or video can justify the beauty of this country! Cappadocia was my childhood dream place, great to see you guys there. =)
Yea it's stunning there isn't it 🥰 Cappadocia is out of this world cool too.. easily one of the most awesome places we've visited to date 😃✨❤️ it's so incredibly unique with its surreal landscape!
Like 16🙋🥰👍tq sharing 👍🥰
Very nice, indeed! And thank you for showing your respects to Atatürk!
He's was a great man and we can understand why he's so beloved 🙂🙏
My husband and I love all your videos!! So jealous of your trip to Turkey!! You’ve made us start looking at a trip for next year! Would you guys please consider adding in Australian currency when you show prices? Would be greatly appreciated if possible :)
Hello thanks so much to the both of you for watching our channel 😁👍 we figured that the new Zealand dollar and Aussie dollar are so similar that there was no point putting both on especially since we're running out of space to put anymore hahaha 😅
now 12.5 lira = 1 avs dollar. so 100 avs dollar is 1250 türkish lira.And Tahlia are you sure that you are not Türkish? Your name and surename works :D
@@kadircanyldran1849 thank you so much for that! Haha thanks! I married an Albanian so hence the last name but I wish I was Turkish
@@tahliahuseinovski1608 ahhah ok albanian bosnian also works with this surname :) and no why did you say that albanians türks generally has no problem and little bit similiar especially about the craziness part :D where are you from albania?
Amazing place 👍❤️🇳🇿
Too true 👍 💯
Good tip - buy the tix there at the station, but is it ever full?
Quite often it can be full especially in the popular routes. Worth getting the tickets in advance
Turkish people are so beautiful! as in attractivness LOL.
They are!! And also so nice too ❤️😊
👍👍👍
👍
Nice vid, guys.
Just a note tho... Tatouine is based off a town in Tunisia.
Ooo we weren't really sure on this either. Enjoy watching the movies but aren't deep into the lore of the films. Thanks for the info 👍
Video hay và bạn sản xuất video chuyên nghiệp. Chúc bạn ngày càng thành công. Kênh bạn đang phát triển khá thành công. Rất tốt..
Cảm ơn bạn rất nhiều 🙏😊

Where did you get your red pants? I love them. They seem perfect for the trip.
Thank you! Hope you find it useful 👍
Got the pants from a market in Vietnam a few years back. They're so good for arid places 😊
Yen has a very strong Kiwi accent
