Fly Over Cappadocia in a Hot Air Balloon

After being picked up from your hotel first thing in the morning, you'll be taken to the Cappadocia hot air balloon departure point, where you'll be served tea, coffee and pastries.

Once the balloon is inflated, you'll climb into the basket and begin your ascent into the sky. With no noise from a motor engine disturbing you, travelling by hot air balloon is an incredibly peaceful experience, and you'll be able to fully enjoy the tranquillity of the landscape of Cappadocia from your place among the clouds.

Your 1-hour hot air balloon ride offers unique views of the challenging-to-explore region, showcasing natural wonders like fairy chimneys, troglodyte caves, and rock tunnels. You'll marvel at the rich history and cultural heritage, which make Cappadocia one of the world's most sought-after ballooning locations.

Following your breathtaking hot air ballooning ride over Cappadocia, you'll return to land where you'll have the opportunity to toast to the experience with a glass of champagne. You'll also be given a certificate to remember your ride and prove you've ticked something off your bucket list!

At the end of your experience, you'll be taken back to your hotel at around 8 am.

¡Experiencia increíble e inolvidable! Nos recogieron puntualmente en el hotel con mucha buena onda y atención. El paseo en globo fue espectacular; primero vimos un amanecer mágico sobre las montañas y luego volamos por encima de la población de Göreme, admirando paisajes únicos mientras nos explicaban en detalle lo que veíamos desde las alturas. Cerramos la experiencia con un brindis muy lindo. Recomiendo llevar efectivo para propinas y fotos opcionales. ¡Definitivamente lo recomiendo! Translate this opinion into English.

Amazing and unforgettable experience! They picked us up punctually at the hotel with great vibes and attention. The balloon ride was spectacular; first we saw a magical sunrise over the mountains and then we flew over the town of Göreme, admiring unique landscapes while they explained to us in detail what we saw from above. We closed the experience with a very nice toast. I recommend bringing cash for tips and optional photos. I definitely recommend it! Opinion translated. Show original.

Excelente experiencia, vistas increibles y una travesia muy tranquila, el piloto nos llevo a los lugares indicados mostrando se pericia en el manejo. Tanto el despegue como el aterrizaje no se ha sentido, muy suave y controlado, se sintio muy seguro, a pesar de la gran altura que se alcanza. Desde la recogida en el hotel hasta el regreso todo muy bien, finalizando con el brindis de champaña y el certificado del vuelo. Translate this opinion into English.

An excellent experience, incredible views, and a very peaceful journey. The pilot took us to the indicated locations, demonstrating his skillful handling. Both the takeoff and landing were seamless, very smooth and controlled, and we felt very safe, despite the high altitude. From the hotel pickup to the return flight, everything went very smoothly, concluding with a champagne toast and the flight certificate. Opinion translated. Show original.

It was our first time in Cappadocia and Turkey, and taking the hot air balloon ride was definitely the highlight of our trip. We now have a special, memorable experience with our family. The views were absolutely stunning, the sunrise was beautiful, and the ride was so smooth. The crew was incredibly friendly and lovely, making the whole experience even more enjoyable.
