What are people saying about Cappadocia

Great experience!...
Great experience! Communicated pickup time the night before and brought us to the takeoff site. Up in the air on time to see a perfect sunrise with the iconic balloon view. Incredibly smooth landing! I was anxious before the experience but felt safe and comfortable the whole time.

Phenomenal Experience (Must Do)
Perfect start to our day! Great service, we received pickup from hotel and group transport to the launch site. The cubes that people were separated in were a little tight but easy to maneuver to get different picture angles. Our pilots were great we went as high as 1400meters. It does get colder the higher you go so bring a sweater. Snacks were also provided and a champagne (not real champagne) toast was done after landing. There was also an option to buy the 360 video of the entire balloon ride. Overall I highly recommend this activity, the company provided excellent communication, they were very timely and the balloon ride itself was about 1 hour in total. We were picked up at 4:20am and back at our hotel by 7:00am which gave us tons of options for the remainder of our day.

A truly magical can't miss experience!
Our hot air balloon ride was one of the most amazing experiences of my life and a 10/10 from start to finish. Yes, you have to wake up at the crack of dawn, but it's more than worth it. A group van picks you up along with other passengers on the way to the launch site. There was coffee/tea provided before takeoff, though we were running a little late and missed it. Getting in and out of the balloon felt completely safe, and both takeoff and landing were remarkably smooth. The flight itself was so gentle that you barely notice how high you're getting until you look down. The timing of the ride was perfect: we lingered in the sky to watch the sunrise and drifted a good distance from the launch point, taking in incredible views of Göreme, the caves, the fairy chimneys, and the other hotels, where people who'd woken up early were waving up at the balloons. We shared the balloon with about 20 other passengers, but everyone is split into small groups of 4 in smaller baskets, so no one feels crowded and everyone gets a great view. After landing, there was cake and champagne (or juice) waiting, along with a certificate and a souvenir magnet which was such a nice touch. They also offer professional photos and videos of the experience if you want to capture it all. It was truly magical, and it's an experience we'll remember for the rest of our lives.

Amazing experience!
It was an overall great experience. The pickup is quite early, but you want it so you can see the sunrise. The staff were all lovely and our pilots Emre and Fatima were very very nice. For about 90€ a person you get pick up and droppoff and also a very organsied tour. The overral length of the activity was about 2-3 hrs, the balloon ride itself being about 30-40mins. The ride is very smooth and the basket is very sturdy and as someone with slight fear of heights, it feels very very secure. Highly recommend for this unforgetable experince!
