We had family vacations in Cappadocia with our 3 kids. However, as my smallest one is 10 months old, I was a bit anxious to have him on a balloon. My husband went on a flight with the other two kids and I got to watch them. This company is very good, excellent services and a 5-star costumer service! The colours of the sunrise took my breath away. The scenery was atmospheric and watching all these colourful balloons flying above the valley filled me with emotions. It was absolutely fabulous!!! A lifetime experience!!!
Dreamy experience!!! I’m afraid of heights, but I really wanted to see the amazing sunrise and the balloons flying around. This tour seemed like the ideal one for me. My friends went on a flight, so the company’s driver drove me to a stunning location. It was quite panoramic so I was able to see the beautiful valley and of course the balloons. Oh wow, that was so unique. Once the balloons were up there I felt charmed by the whole experience. I was taking pictures all the time. Totally recommended!!!
One of the most romantic sceneries I’ve ever witnessed! Done the hot air balloon on my second day and kept the balloon watching for the last day. Oh, that was breath-taking. First thing to do was to see the pilots getting ready for the flight. The process is very interesting, I had no idea how they were filling the balloon. Then, the balloon took off and started flying next to many more balloons. The whole setting was amazing and when the sun started rising, all the light reflections were super. Try it! Very nice memory and such an incredible atmosphere.
