Salkim Cave

Staying at Salkim Cave in Cappadocia was a wonderful experience. The room was very clean, spacious, & beautifully designed, with an incredible cave atmosphere & a stunning view. Cengo was an outstanding host—extremely attentive, friendly, & always available. Communication was excellent from start to finish, which made me feel very comfortable, especially traveling alone. Thank you for opening your warm home and making me feel so welcome. I would absolutely stay here again & highly recommend it.

Disappointed tour

The blue tour in Capadokia did not meet my expectation. They skipped important place to visit and took us to the fashion show to sell the leather goods and they did not took us back to the Cengo's agency to catch a car to go back to the airport.

Amazing

I had the most incredible experience in Cappadocia, all thanks to our amazing tour agent, Cenk! From the moment we arrived, everything was so well organized. Cenk arranged a two-day tour that included the best of Cappadocia, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. The cave hotel he booked for us was absolutely stunning—such a unique and unforgettable experience! The ambiance was perfect, and we felt like we were truly living in the heart of Cappadocia's history. The Red Tour and the Green Tour were both fantastic, offering us a deep dive into the region's incredible landscapes, rich history, and local culture. We got to explore iconic sites, including the fairy chimneys and ancient rock churches, and the local guides were knowledgeable and passionate. The highlight, of course, was the hot air balloon ride. Floating over the fairy chimneys at sunrise was a surreal experience, and Cenk made sure everything ran smoothly for us. Cenk’s attention to detail, professionalism, and local knowledge made this trip absolutely perfect. I highly recommend him for anyone looking to explore Cappadocia! Thank you, Cenk, for such an unforgettable adventure!

Unforgettable memories in Kapadokya

This past May, we visited Kapadokya from Istanbul, a trip arranged by Cengo, and everything went so smoothly! We were in Istanbul and decided on a whim we’d like to go to Kapadokya for 2 days. In less than 48 hours, he arranged a customized package that included: roundtrip flights from Istanbul to Kapadokya, cave hotel accommodations in Goreme (with hot breakfast), all 4 hotel-airport-hotel transfers, 2 distinct tours of the region, and 2 buffet lunches. Our tour operator Cengo kept checking on us via WhatsApp every step of the way to ensure things were going well. We flew from and to SAW airport in Istanbul via AJet, about 1 hour and 30 minute domestic flights. Shuttle drivers were very accommodating, especially when we had an issue with our Passport which we had accidentally forgotten inside the aircraft. After retrieving them, we simply went back to the shuttle bus, but really appreciate their patience with our mishap. We stayed at the lovely Kaya Konak Cave hotel, in the center of Goreme. The location was wonderful for strolling around the city, and also for all the hotel pick ups for the tours. The staff was super friendly and made us feel very welcome. In the morning, we would wake up early and go to the hotel terrace to watch the breathtaking balloon rides. Breakfast was plenty and the staff made sure we were well fed before we left the table each morning. Our 2 daily tours were conducted by Yasin Yilmaz, who was a delight! We were extremely happy to be with him for 2 full days, where we learned a lot about the local culture and heritage. We would highly recommend Cengo and appreciate him for so swiftly helping us make unforgettable memories!
