The Mevlâna Museum in Konya, Turkey, started life as the dervish lodge (tekke) of the Mevlevi order, better known as the whirling dervishes. It houses the mausoleum of Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi (Turkish: Celaleddin-i Rumi), a Persian Sufi mystic.

Hierapolis was a tourist center with its hot springs. The hot springs have been used as a spa since at least the 2nd century BC, with many patrons retiring or dying there as evidenced by the large necropolis filled with tombs, most famously that of Marcus Aurelius Ammianos, which bears a relief depicting the earliest known example of a crank and rod mechanism, and the Tomb of Philip the Apostle. It was added as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988.

Ephesus was recipient city of one of the Pauline epistles; one of the seven churches of Asia addressed in the Book of Revelation; the Gospel of John may have been written there; and it was the site of several 5th-century Christian Councils.

What an amazing experience this was, and a big part of it was the great service provided by Bien Cappadocia - such nice and knowledgeable folks! Saygu, the tour guide, was kind and funny, ready to answer all your question! - book them! And also the price is better then other tour services!

I doubt you’ll find a better guide!

09-Sep-2022

My daughter and I spent 2 very full days touring the Cappadocia area with Saygu and driver Yusuf on a private tour. Both were excellent. Saygu seriously knows his stuff and I’ve no idea how he can remember so much. He’s amusing, chatty and an absolute pleasure to spend time with. His English is excellent (although I understand he speaks German just as fluently). Nothing is a silly question and he’s very happy to chat about anything you’re not understanding or are curious about. A real font of knowledge. I doubt you can find a better guide in Cappadocia. We hope to return and visit Istanbul and I’ll be sure to book him for this or any other tour of Turkish destinations.

Awesome trip!

09-Jun-2023

Saygu and team were amazing! They truly organised everything down to the T and ensured that I was very well taken care of. Gobeklitepe was my goal and they ensured that I had enough time to spend there. They really took time to also ensure that I got to do all the things I wanted to. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and informative. I would highly recommend this tour.

Highly recommend!

23-Jul-2023

A truly amazing experience. Everything was planned for us and made very clear so there was no confusion, which was helpful considering we only had 2 hours of sleep between our flight and waking up for the hot air balloon tour pickup! If I ever go back to Cappadocia I would 100% go through Bien Cappadocia again to schedule my tours. You get dropped off in time to watch the hot air balloons get filled and then board the balloon. They provide some snacks and the balloon pilot was very knowledgeable of the area and kept the trip fun and enjoyable. Insanely beautiful sights and definitely worth the early wake up. Once you land they have a little toast with everyone to celebrate. Something I will never forget!!

Wonderful tour Ur - Gobekli Tepe

17-Aug-2023

We were truly cared for by Emine Yesim Bedlek. She guided us through the exhibits at Gobekli Tepe. She shared her in depth knowledge of which she has written several books. We had a wonderful lunch at a local restaurant and strolled thru the local market. Very much appreciated Emine Yesim Bedlek! We had a terrific time! Thank you!

amazing experience

06-Jun-2022

The tour guide was very enthusiastic and professional and we had a great day. He also arranged airport pick up and drop off for us. He also helped us book a hot air balloon trip, there were hundreds of hot air balloons in the sky at sunrise, which was breathtaking. The caves are also amazing. The trip to Cappadocia is an unforgettable experience!
