"Istanbul Aku Datang..2014.. :D
Dear Ina,
The itinerary n quotation as requested.
Pls take note:
1. Aykut, the agent, is a he; very nice n extremely helpful guy.
2. His co only caters to small group tour, 10-14 pax; so most of the time there wd be only our family, like a private tour.
3. Our travels from Istanbul to other cities are by flights of abt 1hr each.
By road is avlbl but the journey wl take btwn 8-10 hrs depending on the distance and weather during winter especially. So this wl hv variation on the tour package itself.
4. U cn design ur own itinerary as what we did and Aykut will advise and arrange all the details.
5. Door to door pick-up service, so no worries at all abt transportation.
6. Purchase ur own flight tickets.
7. Ask everything and anything, Aykut will be at ur service :D
Happy planning!

Despite the vast numer of monasteries, churches and chapels in the vicinity of Göreme, there are not many inscriptions bearing dates. For this reason, these religious buildings are mainly dated according to the iconography or architectural features.
