Uncover Turkey’s Ancient Civilizations: 5-Day Gordion, Hattusas & Cappadocia Tour – Good to Know

Weather & Best Time to Visit:

• Ankara, Gordion, and Hattusas experience cold winters and hot summers, while Cappadocia has a continental climate with warm days and cool nights.
• Spring (April–June) and autumn (September–November) are the best times to visit, offering pleasant temperatures and fewer crowds.

Clothing & Packing Tips:

• Wear comfortable walking shoes, as many sites involve uneven terrain and steps.
• Dress in layers, especially in Cappadocia, where temperatures vary between day and night.
• Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat for daytime excursions.
• A light jacket is recommended for cooler evenings, especially in Hattusas and Cappadocia.

Cultural Etiquette:

• Respect local customs when visiting mosques and historical sites—cover shoulders and knees when necessary.
• Bargaining is common in local markets, especially in Avanos pottery workshops and souvenir shops.

Food & Drinks:

• Turkish cuisine is diverse; expect delicious meze, kebabs, and local specialties like Ankara Tava (lamb and rice dish) and Cappadocian testi kebab (clay pot kebab).
• Cappadocia is known for its local wines, which are worth trying.
• Always carry a bottle of water to stay hydrated, especially on outdoor tours.

Health & Safety:

• Tap water is generally safe in major cities, but bottled water is recommended in remote areas.
• Travel insurance is highly recommended to cover any unexpected medical needs.
• The tour includes some hiking and walking, so moderate fitness is beneficial.

Money & Payments:

• Turkish Lira (TRY) is the local currency. Credit cards are widely accepted, but carrying some cash is useful for small vendors and local markets.
• ATMs are available in major towns like Ankara, but they may be limited in smaller areas like Gordion and Hattusas.

Additional Experiences:

• A hot air balloon ride in Cappadocia is a highly recommended optional experience for breathtaking views of the landscape.
• Consider visiting a traditional Turkish hammam (bathhouse) for relaxation after a day of touring.

This tour is a perfect blend of history, archaeology, and natural beauty, offering a unique chance to explore Turkey’s rich cultural heritage while enjoying scenic landscapes.
