Cappadocia Tour from Avsallar: Hillside Hotels and a Four O'Clock Coach

Can I be picked up from my hotel in Avsallar?

Yes. Avsallar lies well inside the coastal corridor the operator covers, so you reserve directly without asking first. The pickup and the drop-off at the end of day 2 are both part of what you pay.

Hotel names are not needed in advance: choose yours in the hotel step of the booking form, or type it in if it is not listed.

What time is the Avsallar pickup?

About 04:00, according to the operator. İncekum, just to the west, comes a quarter of an hour later, and Türkler, to the east, a quarter of an hour earlier, so you are roughly halfway through the run.

Avsallar is a good middle point: early enough to feel like a real night start, late enough to get some sleep after dinner. Treat the hour as a planning guide. The minute that counts is the one sent to you after you book, worked out for your hotel and that night's passenger list.

The full coast is listed on the pickup times page.

Our hotel is up the hill. Will the coach climb to it?

Sometimes not, and in that case you walk a short way down to a designated point. Several streets on the upper slope are steep, narrow or lined with parked cars, which a full-size coach cannot safely use at night. Where that applies, the operator names a convenient spot on a wider street or on the main road.

You will see this in your confirmation; nobody expects you to guess. A torch on your phone and comfortable shoes make the short walk easy. Wheeled cases are noisy on a slope at night, so a soft bag is kinder to your neighbours and to your wrists.

Where do beachfront hotels wait?

Usually at the hotel's main entrance on the road side, not on the beach side. Bring your bags out a few minutes early and keep your reference handy, because the guide checks the list at the door.

If your hotel has a side gate or a separate reception building, follow the message; it states whether the coach stops at the front of the property or at a meeting point close by.

How is the exact minute confirmed?

By message, after booking. We send the time, the place to wait and your reference by phone or WhatsApp, in the language you selected.

Check it again the evening before departure and tell the night reception that you are leaving early. If nothing has arrived by then, or you have moved hotel, ring +90 536 603 75 84 and we confirm with the operator.

How should a family prepare for a four o'clock departure?

Do everything the evening before. Pack one bag for the night, put warm layers on top, and ask the restaurant for breakfast boxes: the café on the way sells food, but that breakfast is not included. Children usually fall asleep again once the coach is moving.

Children aged 2 to 7 travel at the reduced fare and babies sit on a parent's lap and take no seat; Cappadocia with kids covers the rest.

What follows once the coach has left Avsallar?

A long inland drive in two parts — about 3 h 15 min, a rest stop, then about 1 h 50 min — to the Underground City, entry included. The afternoon brings valleys, the panorama beneath Uçhisar Castle and an onyx and sultanite centre; the evening, a 3- or 4-star hotel allocated by availability with dinner.

On the second day the coach returns via Konya, and you are back in Avsallar between 19:00 and 21:00. The licensed guide runs the programme for the whole group.

How much is it from Avsallar, and where do I book?

The fare is €75 for adults and €40 in the child band, paid in euros, Turkish lira or US dollars on the trip; nothing is charged online. Book on the form above and see ages and optional extras on the price page.
