FAQs
Do I need tickets in advance for hot air balloon rides in Goreme?

What is the best way to explore the fairy chimneys?
Walking or joining a guided hike are best for exploring fairy chimneys. Guided tours start from €30 per person and provide access to lesser-known trails with historical insights.
How much does it cost to enter the Goreme Open-Air Museum?
Admission to the Goreme Open-Air Museum is approximately ₺480 per adult in 2024. Children under eight enter free, and combination tickets sometimes include Karanlık Kilise for an additional fee.
