5.00The tour was one of the highlights during my time in Cappadocia. It was incredible fun riding these great horses through the countryside. Some quick gallops were also there and it couldn't have been nicer! An absolute recommendation!
Wonderful ride across the Cappadocian landscape

5.00Wonderful horse ride around Cappadocian landscape, rising by historical caves and churches. Horses are in splendid condition and much of the tack was brand new. Sampled wild grapes plucked by the side of the trail, tomatoes from the vine in the fields and sparkling mideral water direct from a natural well.
Just great!

5.00We had an incredible afternoon at Cemal's ranch. His father led us through the breathtaking scenery and showed us a lot. Finally, we also got a small meal. Which was very important to me - the horses are looked at well. A wonderful experience!
Cemal’s Ranch is the place to be!

5.00AMAZING!!!! Please do not book your horse riding tour anywhere else. The day before riding at Cemal Ranch, we saw horses everywhere next to ATVs, etc. This was very touristy. The horses looked sad, and I was hoping that our Horse Riding tour would not be the same. It was not...it was away from the crowds and through some of the most beautiful parts of Cappadocia. This place has been owned by 4 generations! The dad took us out, and his energy was amazing. We got to ride the horses a bit vs just walking them (this was based on our request). If you want to walk, that's an option as well. The day before, I stopped by the place to see where it was. The place was closed, but the owner invited us in and gave us freshly squeezed orange juice. After the ride, he also gave us lunch, which was fantastic. Did I already say, please do not book your horse tour with anyone else?
UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE & Helpful Happy Staff

5.00AMAZING!!! Unforgettable Experience! Attentive Kind Happy family business staff. Unlike the other horse companies. This tour had Zero disturbance from ATVs, Jeeps or gangs of tourists. Just US moving through the land. Spectacular Views, picture opportunities and even a tranquil stop at the Pigeon House. The Father was our guide and his spirit was positively energetic it filled the space! To top off the ride, We received a delicious lunch upon our return
Great ride, be careful of where you stop for drinks.

5.00A brilliant half day ride! The owner, guides and staff at the stables were all very friendly and helpful whilst the horses are well cared for and in good condition. The ride itself was one of the highlights of the holiday. One negative however was the mid-ride break where we stopped at a small drinks station in the hills. Unfortunately the unscrupulous owner over-charged us (£20 for four waters and two teas). Not much else to say except take your own drinks with you. That said, it was a memorable ride, thanks to the team.

5.00We had 2 wonderful days of riding with a variety of different tours, each one more beautiful than the last. We were warmly welcomed and served delicious and generous food from the first to the last minute of our stay, with many different local specialties. When selecting the very well-groomed horses, the riding ability was taken into account. Lots of great dogs who, like the horses, are very well looked after and love to be petted. Our funny and hard-working riding guide Mehmed showed us the best tours off the beaten track. Thank you for the great experience! The price/performance ratio is right in every respect.

5.00This is worth all the money! The instructors are pleasant to deal with. They really allow you to take the time to take photos and stop at places to explain. Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed with a drink and had a nice lunch after the ride. I couldn't have imagined better!
Not a typical horseriding

5.00Our 4 hour tour was not only a horserinding but an unforgettable experience to discover the most beautiful valleys in Kapadokya and be totally immersed in the Turkish culture. Cemal, the owner of the ranch, welcomed us and introduced us to Abudassar, our guide, who was definitely the best ever! We spent four hours surrounded by incredible landscapes riding beautiful and well educated horses ! Once we finished our tour, Cemal’s family offered us to have lunch in the ranch, cooking for us a typical (and very tasty) meal! Please, do come here if you wanna come back home with a heart full of gratitude ! I would definitely suggest to book a horse riding tour with cemal ! Arianna and Antonio from Italy Ps: we can’t wait to come back again !
