Private Transfer Cappadocia to Antalya: Konya tour with guide

Skip the bus: travel by private car while a guide meets you in Konya

A private transfer from Cappadocia to Antalya that breaks up the nine-hour drive with a guided stop in Konya. You visit Mevlana Museum & Tomb of Rumi, Turkey's second most visited museum, and pause at Sultanhani Caravansarai, a 13th-century caravansarai on the route. A professional English-speaking guide joins you in Konya. Your driver handles the rest of the journey.

The experience

The Sultanhani Caravansarai sits on the route between Cappadocia and Konya: a 13th-century rest stop for silk road traders, now a landmark you'll see without adding time to your day. Your driver picks you up at your hotel in Cappadocia and handles the first leg of the drive. When you reach Konya, a professional guide meets you at the museum entrance and walks you through Mevlana Museum & Tomb of Rumi, the second most visited museum in Turkey. The guide speaks English and can answer questions about what you're seeing. The visit itself is the structured part of the day.

After Konya, you're back in the car for the final stretch to Antalya. The driver stops when you need them, for a meal, a bathroom break, or just to stretch. Nine hours is long, but split across two vehicles (the car, then the guide's attention in one place) and broken by a real stop instead of a bus station, it feels different. The air-conditioned vehicle and professional driver mean you arrive rested instead of drained.
