Do not recommend to people with claustrophobia. The path is narrow, queues outside and inside. Ticket price is very expensive.

It is very unusual and interesting. Those who are interested in the history of human development will definitely like what they have seen. It's hard to imagine that this was built by people for everyday life. For a complete inspection of all the premises, you will need a good physical shape and not a very bulky complexion, because those who built it were obviously thin and short. For children, the visit will probably be akin to a quest. The entrance fee for the 24th year is 13 euros. It is included in the standard tours of Cappadocia. It is not difficult to get there by car. There is a paid inexpensive parking right at the entrance, there are also enough places for free parking around.

Overall, an interesting place. Atmospheric. We were after Kaymakla. And Derinkuyu liked it a little less. Most likely because of the crowds inside. The atmosphere is getting lost. Queues at the entrance. And they move surprisingly slowly. I didn't really like that there are a lot of new stairs in Derinkuyu, which are different in style. It was possible to artificially age it somehow, so as not to disturb the harmony. And some kind of electrical panels on the walls, it would be possible to disguise. Many passages are closed. There is no such maze as from Kaymakly. And there are no listed disadvantages either. If you choose one of the objects, then Kaymakly. And in principle, there is not much point in visiting both, because they are of the same type.
