8 more days in Western Turkey

My husband and I just found out we have extra days in Turkey after our October Rick Steves tour. We were going to visit our son in Europe on the way home but that just fell through.

We'll be starting in Kusadasi and we're looking for great, reasonably-priced places to go on the way back to Istanbul. Any suggestions/recommendations? (we love history and local culture)

We loved going inland and visiting the Cappadocia region. You can stay in a tufa cave in Goreme and take a tour of the underground city of Kaymakli. Another amazing experience was a day hike through the Ihlara Valley to see the fresco churches carved into small caves.
