Pat_V

The overall experience was truly unreal—you must do this tour! We were picked up from our hotel around seven, and although we initially thought we were late since the tour starts at six, everything was incredibly efficient upon arrival. We quickly got into our basket, and our balloon took flight. Our captain was absolutely fantastic, expertly navigating us through breathtaking views of the sunrise over the valleys. We soared over Red Valley and Love Valley, experiencing incredible highs and gentle descents. This is truly the best place in the world for a hot air balloon ride! The crew was super professional, making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. Overall, it was a wonderful adventure. I can't emphasize enough—you have to do this. It's the best tour ever and the experience of a lifetime! 🌅🎈

WARNING: Do not book!

Winnie_H, Apr 2026

I always book my activities on Viator ahead of time so that I am well-prepared and have peace of mind. My trip is this April and I booked this hot air balloon ride back on December 1. Beginning of April, I get an email saying “ Reservation canceled Unfortunately, the tour operator for Hot Air Balloon Ride at Sunrise in Goreme, Cappadocia had to cancel your reservation.” I called Viator to see why and they said the operator did not provide a cancellation reasoning. My prediction is that operator was optimizing their profits because I booked for $594 and after operator cancelled, the tour was $907. I would have to rebook at an increase of $312!!! I advocated to Viator customer service to have it rebooked for me with the original price in the form of a $312 refund and it was done. Viator should not allow operators to cancel without valid reason other than greed. If you do decide to book with this operator, just know their tour runs late. Most balloons were already in the air for a long time and we only started going up after sunrise.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Dear Winnie, Thank you for your review and for choosing to fly with us. We truly understand how frustrating this situation must have been, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. Hot air balloon prices in Cappadocia are highly dynamic and vary depending on seasonal demand and operational factors. In your case, your reservation was cancelled in advance because the April pricing had not been correctly finalized at the time of your booking. Please be assured that this was not related to profit optimization, but rather due to pricing policy adjustments based on the season. We are glad to hear that Viator was able to assist you and resolve the pricing difference. However, we genuinely wish you had reached out to us directly at the time — we would have been more than happy to find a solution and ensure your experience met your expectations. Your feedback regarding the flight timing is also very valuable to us. While we always aim to take off before sunrise, on your specific booking day there was a slight delay due to operational conditions. This is not our standard practice, but occasionally such delays may occur due to aviation permissions or logistical factors. We truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve our services and communication. Should you visit Cappadocia again, we would be delighted to welcome you and provide you with an even better experience. Kindest regards.

Exceptional!

Expensive and not worthy

Ajay_B, Jun 2025

Extremely expensive compared to local providers. The same tour is available at one third cost directly.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Hello Ayaj, Thank you for sharing your feedback. However, we believe your review does not fairly reflect the reality of your experience with us. Hot air balloon prices are subject to change due to demand and flight cancellations. You were absolutely free to cancel the reservation if you found the price too expensive for your budget. Instead, you chose to join the tour, enjoyed the full service, and completed the experience without any issues. For this reason, we feel that the review is not representative of the quality of service we provided. We kindly ask you to consider removing or updating your review, as it may mislead other travelers. Nevertheless, we appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best in your future travels.

Great way to see Cappadocia

Michael_V, Apr 2025

An absolutely wonderful experience! Don’t miss your chance to do this while in Cappadocia and don’t be discouraged because of bad weather. Our first flight was cancelled due to weather but the tour operator was in contact with us the whole time over WhatsApp and got us scheduled for the next day. The flight itself was amazing, and we were in the air a full hour! Everything was made easy and we appreciated the extra touches like the lunch box.

Response from Host, Apr 2025
