Rabia was an exceptional tour guide who made our Cappadocia Tour unforgettable. Her deep knowledge and passion for the region brought each stop to life. In Göreme, she explained the history behind the ancient rock-cut churches, making the frescoes even more meaningful. In Pasabag, her insights into the formation of the fairy chimneys blended geology with captivating tales. We finished in Avanos, where Rabia’s explanation of traditional pottery techniques left us with a deeper appreciation for local crafts.
