What are some recommended itineraries for visting Turkey in July? [closed]
I'm visiting Turkey for 13 days with my 19 year old nephew. We're flying in and out of Istanbul. I'd like to get out of Istanbul and see the country.
What are some recommended itineraries and preferred modes of transport?
I and am considering renting a car, but I'm not sure if the trains / buses are a much better option. My nephew is really interested in new cultural experiences and enjoys visiting unusual places in nature.

Some time ago, I did
- Istanbul => Ankara by bus
- 2 days in Ankara
- Ankara => Cappadocia by bus
- A few days in Cappadocia
- Cappadocia => Istanbul by air
- A few days in Istanbul
This made a nice 2 weeks holiday that was not too rushed.
(We are going to Turkey this year for 3 weeks starting on the coast and finishing in Istanbul, however as are going in September the coast should not be too crowded.)
