The only thing that made this tour bearable was our guide, who was confident, caring, and extremely knowledgeable. What didn’t work for me? There’s quite a list. The photos shown online don’t reflect reality. The balloon flight mostly goes over a meadow for an hour and that’s about it. The basket is overcrowded, making it impossible to move around. The air conditioning only works at the front, and the driver switches it off during stops, turning the bus back into an oven. As for the pools, you can’t actually swim in them instead, hundreds of people are crowded, wading in tight spaces. Honestly, it wasn’t very enjoyable.

The flight was disappointing. The balloon was torn in several places, which made it look unattractive and quite alarming.

All of this really affected my overall impression of the experience negatively.

The coach was punctual, and overall, everything was well organized. The balloon ride was great fun, and we were lucky to have an excellent pilot and team. Pamukkale was very beautiful and definitely worth visiting, especially if you enjoy natural rock formations. However, the coach had a persistent squeak or screech that became quite annoying after just a few minutes, let alone during the six-hour journey. There were also a couple of unadvertised shopping stops that felt more like opportunities to push overpriced tourist items. The lunch restaurant wasn’t very appealing, and the food looked bland and generic. After checking reviews, we saw it mostly had one star ratings. It wasn’t terrible, but I would recommend proceeding with caution.

I have a mix of thoughts about this excursion. On the positive side, it's a great deal for a full day trip including the balloon ride and lunch. The guide was friendly and attentive, which I really appreciated. However, the day didn’t start well. As a solo traveler, I was left waiting in the dark for about 45 minutes because the driver was late. My hotel was in the old town, so I had to walk a bit on my own in the early hours, which wasn’t very comfortable or safe. Punctuality would’ve made a big difference. Also, there were no bathroom breaks for the first six hours of the day, so keep that in mind if you're planning to join the first proper stop was after the balloon activity. There were also a few unannounced stops clearly aimed at selling souvenirs, which I wasn’t a fan of. Lunch was actually delicious, though drinks weren’t included not a big issue. Entrance to Hierapolis was a bit pricey, and although it’s an impressive site, the famous Pamukkale pools were mostly dry and very crowded, which took away from the experience a little. All in all, it’s a decent trip, just be prepared for a few things and manage your expectations.

Overall, the trip was enjoyable, but one thing I would really suggest is better clarity around the schedule. We thought we’d have more time at certain spots especially around Pamukkale and Cleopatra’s Pool but everything felt a bit rushed. It would’ve helped to know in advance exactly how much time we had at each location so we could plan better. The day was quite packed, and while we managed to see a lot, some parts felt like we were constantly checking the time. That said, the views were beautiful and the guide was helpful, but a clearer breakdown of the day’s timing would definitely improve the experience.

Our four star rating is entirely because of the tour guide he was both entertaining and wel informed, and extremely helpful throughout. I would definitely recommend him to others.

The hot air balloon ride was truly a fantastic experience. Throughout the tour, the guide frequently mentioned that there would be extra fees for entering Pamukkale and again for Cleopatra’s Antique Pool. It would have been helpful to know about these additional costs ahead of time. The guide also kept urging us to hurry so we could return on schedule and he could finish early. It would have been good to be informed that the video of the balloon ride was an additional charge. The lunch was nothing special, and the drink prices felt extremely overpriced. The van’s seats were quite tight since the interior had been redesigned to look nice, which it did, but this reduced the space for window seats. Although the guide promised a short restroom break on the way back, they didn’t stop or check if anyone needed one. There was also an unnecessary stop at an Onyx factory to encourage purchases, which shortened the time we had to explore Pamukkale properly.

The balloon flight was conducted very professionally, and the pilot was an excellent entertainer, making the whole experience quite memorable. However, I expected the certificates to be more personalized, especially since all passenger details were collected in advance. The transfer, on the other hand, was disappointing. Despite the bus having a modern and stylish interior, the air conditioning was clearly insufficient, and the bus was uncomfortably hot throughout the journey. The option to visit the Pamukkale fields isn’t really a true choice the guide makes it seem like a required paid activity; otherwise, you’re left alone in a run down village and told you’ll be picked up four hours later.

Our guide was very kind and helpful, and he accompanied us throughout the day in a very pleasant way. Pamukkale and its pools were truly spectacular. The only downside was that we thought we were booking one tour, but when we received the confirmation, it turned out to be a slightly different tour than expected.

The hot air balloon ride is a truly unique experience that everyone should try at least once. Afterward, we visited Pamukkale to take in the stunning panorama at the end of the tour. Our guide was fantastic throughout the day!

Thanks to our driver and guide, it was a wonderful day. The hot air balloon flight was truly incredible. Just a small suggestion for improvement: the catering and cleanliness of the toilets at the restaurant could have been better. The transport was also perfect.

We had a really good day overall. The round trip transfer was comfortable and went smoothly. The hot air balloon flight was fantastic, and our pilot was very kind. One small downside was the high price for the Pamukkale visit, so we chose not to go. However, they were accommodating by offering us breakfast instead of the buffet and ensured we were safely returned to the hotel. Many thanks to them.

The trip was beautiful and filled with many unique moments. I especially enjoyed the hot air balloon ride and learning about the history of Hierapolis. Our guide was the best always friendly and very informative. Thanks to her excellent English, we understood everything clearly. I also appreciated how interactive she was, keeping us engaged with plenty of conversation during the journey there and back.
