Overview

From the moment you step into our comfortable shuttle for pick-up from your hotel, you'll feel the anticipation building. We'll drive you to the launch site where you can watch our expert team prepare the balloons for flight, inflating them against the backdrop of the dawn sky. As you ascend in the balloon, you'll be greeted by the sunrise, casting a golden glow over the fairy-tale chimneys, immense valleys, and ancient caves of Cappadocia.

Every direction offers a postcard-perfect view, a patchwork of vineyards, orchards, and unique geological formations. The hot air balloon flight is not just about the mesmerizing views. It's about the silence, broken only by the occasional roar of the balloon's burner and the awe-inspired gasps of your fellow passengers. It's about the sensation of floating, the peacefulness, the connection with nature, and the realization of a dream. After your flight, we'll celebrate your journey with a traditional champagne toast and a certificate to commemorate your adventure. We then drive you back to your hotel so you can continue your day, taking with you memories that will last a lifetime.

Safety is paramount for us. Our balloons are maintained to the highest standards, and our pilots are experienced professionals with thorough knowledge of the Cappadocia region. We'll always prioritize your safety and comfort. A hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia is more than just a trip; it's a bucket-list experience that we're sure you'll cherish forever.

Unfortunately, our shuttle driver got lost while trying to find the balloon launch site, which made us quite anxious about potentially missing the initial balloon setup something we were really excited about. On top of that, the road was very bumpy, and the driver's speed felt a bit too fast for those conditions, making the ride rather uncomfortable. To make matters more challenging, the driver didn't speak English, so it was hard to understand what was going on or how long the delay might last. Better communication would have helped us feel more at ease. The balloon experience itself was unforgettable, but we think these shuttle-related issues could be improved for future travelers.

An outstanding experience! Even if you're afraid of heights, this is absolutely worth trying. It's one of the most peaceful and unforgettable activities I've done during my travels. I went alone because my family was afraid of heights, but flying solo was still fantastic. Watching the most stunning sunrise of my life from above was unforgettable. Plus, you get an incredible aerial view of Cappadocia, which truly changed how I see the region. Flying over the mountains made the whole place feel even more magical. Definitely worth every penny and the excitement!

We booked our balloon ride with ahead of our May 2025 trip to Cappadocia, and it turned out to be one of the most unforgettable experiences we've ever had. They collected us bright and early and brought us to the launch site, where the adventure began. As soon as we were in the air, it felt surreal absolutely stunning. The scenery below was impressive in itself, but seeing dozens of balloons rising all around us made it feel like we'd stepped into a dream. It was one of those rare travel experiences that genuinely takes your breath away. The team was friendly, professional, and made us feel completely safe from start to finish. After landing, we were handed flight certificates and celebrated with a sunny champagne toast. A perfect ending to an incredible morning.

Everyone we encountered from the van driver to the pilot and the ground crew was warm, friendly, and professional. The only downside was the location of the launch site, which was quite a distance from our hotel in Ürgüp. The drive was long, and once we arrived, there were only a few other balloons in the area. You could see hundreds of balloons far off in the distance, which made our spot feel a bit removed from the main action. While the scenery was still beautiful, it wasn't quite as striking as the more central take off areas. We had originally booked with a different company at a significantly lower rate, departing from a better location and including pastries and hot drinks before takeoff. Unfortunately, after several days of cancellations due to weather, our booking was dropped, and the next available flights were double was the only operator I could find with availability for the four of us, and thankfully it was still under $1,000 total. Our pilot was excellent, and I'm truly grateful we were able to fly at all. But if I could plan it again, I'd choose a company based in one of the central launch zones. A little extra comfort at the start like a warm drink or a small bite would have made a difference, especially with the long early morning drive. Also, just a heads up: the post flight “champagne” is non alcoholic and extremely sweet it tasted like bubblegum. The kids (under 10) loved it though!

The scenery was beautiful, but the flight itself wasn't quite what I expected. Rather than ascending right away, we stayed low for a while, gliding over the landscape and dipping into a valley before eventually going higher. During that time, we brushed against a few trees, which was a bit unsettling. Personally, I think I would've enjoyed it more if we had gone up sooner and maintained more altitude from the beginning.

The flight itself was absolutely unforgettable soaring over Cappadocia with such stunning views was truly a once in a lifetime experience. Our pilot was friendly and professional, and both takeoff and landing were impressively smooth. The basket was quite large, though it's important to be reasonably mobile to climb in and out comfortably. I highly recommend the flight itself. However, a word of caution: flights can be canceled due to weather, and if that happens, your booking is simply dropped instead of rescheduled. This leaves you scrambling to rebook at often double the original price the following day. That part felt frustrating and unfair.

Although smaller balloons carry fewer passengers, the flights themselves are the same rising above the valleys, weaving through fairy chimneys, and sharing the skies with other balloons.

We had plenty of time to take photos and record videos while the balloon was being prepared. We were grouped in sets of four in each section of the basket. The flight itself was thorough and well-paced. The landing was smooth, and afterward, we celebrated with non-alcoholic champagne and received flight certificates.

An early morning balloon ride over Love Valley and the surrounding areas near Cappadocia was truly an uplifting experience pun intended. While getting up before sunrise isn’t usually my thing, watching our balloon light up in the dark alongside hundreds of others was absolutely magical. It’s the kind of moment photos can’t quite capture, so I’ve chosen not to share mine. I highly recommend this modestly priced tour , which offered an incredible 360 degree view throughout the journey.

From the pickup to the drop off, the entire trip was excellent. When we arrived at the launch site, the balloon was mostly inflated, so there was very little waiting before takeoff. The pilot gave clear instructions, and the ascent was smooth, reaching about 1,200 meters higher than I’ve ever been in a balloon before. The landing was impressive, with the basket gently placed onto a trailer. Afterward, we enjoyed a non alcoholic celebratory drink before being returned to our hotel. A truly great experience!

The basket was divided into eight sections, each fitting about 3 to 4 passengers.

The flight lasted about an hour as we rose and floated over Love Valley. The views were incredible and truly magical. We took many photos and videos along the way.

They provided a small breakfast bag with biscuits and water. We arrived at the launch site before sunrise. The flight itself was amazing and felt very safe. The pilots were experienced and skillfully turned the balloon at different angles while explaining the unique landscape of Cappadocia. We took many photos during the trip. The views were breathtaking and unforgettable. After landing, we enjoyed non alcoholic champagne and received our flight certificates. I highly recommend this hot air balloon flight!

This is a one of a kind experience with breathtaking scenery, and one of the most striking moments is seeing so many balloons lift off at the same time it truly feels like a real show. On the downside, the industry has become something of a monopoly. In a country where the average monthly salary is around the cost of per person is quite steep. In the past, balloons carried about 10 passengers, but now there are no fewer than 22. It's a lucrative business. Why do we still pay it? Because it's the kind of expense you justify once on a trip, knowing you won't repeat it at that price. In short, it's worth doing, but with some reservations.

The staff were very friendly and professional, so no complaints there. However, when I booked, it wasn’t made clear that the takeoff point is slightly separate from where most of the other balloons launch not too far, but not in the main cluster either. Another thing was the delayed takeoff; while most balloons lifted off just before sunrise, ours didn’t leave until about 15 to 20 minutes after sunrise. That might be a downside for some. Lastly, I expected to fly closer to the other balloons and over Göreme city, but we mostly stayed over the fairy chimneys and only skirted the edges of the balloon groups. It didn’t feel like the full experience, though it was still very beautiful and enjoyable. Again, the staff and pilot were excellent I just wish I had known these details beforehand.

Experience beyond all my expectations! They picked us up from the place where we were staying, took us to the departure point of the flight, we saw the hot air balloon inflate, they gave us a packed breakfast and we set off on a magical flight. Chilling landscape with the sun starting to peek out from behind the mountains and lengthening the shadows of the fairy chimneys making them even more evocative and full of mystery. A surreal silence interrupted only by the fire of the balloon and a super professional team that landed directly on the undercarriage of the van transporting the hot air balloon once deflated. At the end a toast and flight certificate. What can we say is an experience not to be had escape!

The experience itself was fantastic. We were picked up from our hotel by minibus and taken to a venue serving a buffet breakfast. The food was good, but we weren't particularly hungry at 4am. After about half an hour, we were taken to the balloon launch site and watched the inflation process, which was quite impressive. The basket was divided into eight sections, and with three people in ours, it was manageable because there was plenty of space. The flight was incredible; we reached an altitude of about 800 meters before descending to see the stunning rock formations up close. Watching the sunrise with the other balloons in the sky was unforgettable. The pilot and his assistant were also very friendly. After a smooth landing, those who preferred alcohol were offered orange juice or Buck's Fizz, and we each received a printed certificate before being returned to our hotel. My only disappointment was the prices. When I booked online, it stated that prices increase depending on availability as we got closer to our flight date. Personally, I think a fixed ticket price would be fairer than charging more for later bookings. From what I saw in Göreme, there still seemed to be plenty of availability. This company could be argued to offer better service, but I'd happily skip the breakfast and post-flight drink/certificate if it meant a lower price. If I come back, I'll definitely compare options, as I paid much more than I would have with better information.

The flight itself was extraordinary. Our captain's skills were exceptional. Although he warned us that flying into the clouds could be risky, as dense fog restricted visibility from other balloons, he still took us up into the clouds so we could watch the sunrise. After descending, we glided over Love Valley for a long time, flying low to the ground and just past towering mushroom-shaped rock formations. The landing was flawless; with the help of the ground crew, the basket landed smoothly on the trailer, requiring no repositioning. We were picked up by car before takeoff, and although we were the second group and needed to pick up four other passengers, we arrived at breakfast within 15 minutes without too much delay.

I highly recommend booking with this company for an unforgettable experience!

Watching all the balloons take off at sunrise was breathtaking, and seeing Cappadocia from above was an unforgettable experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout the entire trip. The shuttle driver was very kind and even helped me take photos since I was traveling alone. Our pilots went out of their way to extend the flight by over an hour, sharing fascinating information about the landscape below and keeping the atmosphere light with their humor. We celebrated with mimosas at the end and received a souvenir flight certificate. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cappadocia!

The hot air balloon ride was the most amazing experience of my life.As someone with a fear of heights, I was a little nervous at first at high altitudes, but it was totally worth it. Flying low, I felt completely relaxed and was able to enjoy the moment.Being in the sky was peaceful, almost dreamlike, with stunning views in every direction. A special thank you to our pilot; his expertise and calm demeanor made the entire experience safe and effortless.

Mete was our pilot for the morning and made our experience truly unforgettable. He expertly guided the balloon to valleys and areas inaccessible to other balloons, providing us with even more incredible views. At our highest point, we soared to 1,000 meters and climbed above the clouds to watch the sunrise. He made everyone laugh and made us feel safe throughout the flight. His communication and piloting skills were excellent, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. The champagne and flight certificate at the end were the perfect finishing touch.

They contacted us the day before our flight, arranged a hotel pick-up, offered complimentary breakfast on the way to the balloon launch site, assisted with balloon inflation, managed the flight, and offered champagne with our flight certificates before returning us to the hotel after landing. The flight itself was magical from start to finish. The sunrise, the scenery, the fairy chimneys, the colors of the rocks, the view of the Red Valley, and the hundreds of colorful balloons surrounding us were incredibly magnificent and captivating. We were truly amazed. The price was very reasonable compared to other companies.

We booked six weeks in advance, and the team communicated perfectly throughout. We arrived the first morning, which was perfect in case of any weather delays. We were met on time, followed by breakfast and a clear safety briefing, and then taken to the balloon field to watch the inflation process. Being one of the first balloons to land gave us a fantastic view of the other balloons rising below and the beautiful colors on the landscape. Our pilot was highly experienced, kept us informed, and maintained a safe distance from the other balloons. The flight lasted just over an hour and was smooth and safe from start to finish.

Exceptional service combined with an incredible sunrise experience. We were picked up from our hotel right on time in a very comfortable minivan. The driver took us to their office in the city, where we enjoyed breakfast with pastries and coffee or tea. As we drove to the balloon launch site, we were able to watch the first balloons take off. Being second on schedule was perfect because we could see some of the balloons in the sky as they took off. Our pilot was extremely professional, and the crew was extremely helpful. We flew over the valleys, taking in the different rock formations and landscapes. The ground crew worked tirelessly, always smiling, to inflate and deflate the balloon. I truly loved this experience and will cherish and share it for the rest of my life.

Our pilot was excellent, and the flight was very comfortable. Everyone had the opportunity to enjoy the incredible views as the pilot gently rotated the balloon, giving us a 360-degree perspective of the landscape from different altitudes. While not cheap, the price reflects the extensive logistics involved: transporting passengers to the launch site, the crew setting up and landing the balloon, and the pilot's skill—all of this demonstrates a high level of coordination, safety, and professionalism. The sparkling wine served at sunrise was a wonderful finishing touch.
