1 of 3 Valleys Hot Air Balloon Flight Experience in Cappadocia

It took about 40 minutes to get from the center of Goreme to the hot air balloon launch site. After waiting about 30 minutes at the cafe at the launch site and having a simple breakfast, we boarded. Throughout the tour, the pick-up driver, the hot air balloon pilot, and all the other staff were very kind. The hot air balloon ride was a very mysterious experience and truly beautiful!! Thank you for creating a memory I will never forget. And the ATV was fun too ^^ The value for money was really good and I was satisfied with the tour. Instructor: Very friendly and humorous. Location: It was a mysterious place.

Excellent experience.Our hot air balloon ride in Cappadocia was absolutely excellent and truly memorable. We were lucky to have such a skilled and friendly pilot, which made the entire journey feel safe and smooth. I’m so glad we chose this trip—especially since many balloons in Göreme couldn’t even take off that morning. Floating above the stunning landscape was breathtaking and a highlight of our travels. Highly recommend to anyone visiting!

Magical Cappadocia ✨ Yesterday’s hot air balloon ride was absolutely surreal—floating over the valleys at sunrise was like a dream! 🌄🎈 Today, I joined the Green Tour and it was just as incredible. From the fascinating underground city to the peaceful Ihlara Valley hike and breathtaking viewpoints, every stop was full of beauty and history. 🌿🏞️ Cappadocia continues to amaze me—highly recommend both experiences!

the first trip we joined was the red tour, i love how they were very well communicate with us. they’ll contact you first for the pick up time for confirmation the location. the tour guide also very informative, she gave us all detail explanation aboutvthe history and all the stories about the place. we also got lunch and it was okay for me. very recommended!! and for the hot balloon tour, at first i wasnt sure about the pick up time and they still didnt contact us until d-1 so i was looking for their contact and chatted them first, this is the only problem I got with them. but the rest are very good, they even got us snacks before fly for the balloon. the location was little bit far from goreme but still okay aince the price is very good. and luckily when we were there, there were many balloons also so we didnt get sad hahah.

We had a great time on the Red Tour! We booked it through Klook, and Tourmania (travel agency) contacted us right away to confirm everything, which was very smooth and easy. Big thanks to Deniz, our tour guide. He was friendly, helpful, and very knowledgeable. He explained everything clearly and even offered to take our photos, which we really appreciated. Overall, a fun and well-organized tour—highly recommended!

Went in May which seemed to be a less crowded time to go. I booked this 1 day before and was so lucky to be able to fly with the perfect weather. The drivers pick you up on time and the vans are very comfortable. Had my flight at Soğalı Valley which seemed to be the least crowded than Goreme. Happy to have the views to ourselves that day. We had breakfast near the start location (some çay and pancakes) before they drive you to the balloon. Our pilot and ground staff were very very experienced, so you’ll be in safe hands. You’ll be able to watch them set up the balloon which is takes quite a bit of hardwork so try to tip the crew if you’re able to. A little champagne after was a nice way to end the experience

It was so cold in the early morning hours of April that I had to wear a padded jacket, but after boarding the hot air balloon, the heat was transmitted and it was okay. They served a simple breakfast, and the thin bread was crispy on the outside as if it was freshly baked, and the potatoes inside were delicious. I flew from Soganli, and it was a wonderful sight that I will remember in my life, and it was nice to be able to enjoy the scenery of Cappadocia because there weren't many hot air balloons. The pilot who flew the hot air balloon had 8 years of experience, so he was witty and flew it stably. I think the pilot's luck is also important. If you want to fly a lot in hot air balloons, you can pay about twice as much and take a balloon tour from the Fairy Chimneys of Goreme.

Not to be missed when in cappadocia. The ride was smooth, you get to enjoy 1 hour of flight. The landing was incredibly smooth. The sunrise was awesome with other balloons. Worth-it. I booked during 11.11 deal.

I was surprised to see such a big hot air balloon in the sky. I was extremely excited after taking off. There were countless hot air balloons hanging in the sky, which was an eye-opener. The staff performed their tasks very seriously and made us feel safe.

The driver picked me up exactly on time at 5AM at hotel lobby. I stayed at Osmanli Cappadocia hotel in Goreme and was the first one to be picked up. The car stopped at 3 other stops to pick up everyone else (total 15 people), finished picking up at 5:12. We arrived the breakfast place at 6AM (Ziya Baba Soğanlı Restorant Pansiyon), joined with other groups. Breakfast is served with 2 slides of salted potatoes pancakes and Turkish tea. Finished breakfast at 6:30 then we arrived at the balloon departure location within 2 min drive and waited in the car. Balloon departed at 7:06. We reached 2400m at 7:45am at 19km/hour. Started to decent at 7:54 and landed smoothly at 8:05. They prepared alcohol free champagne and handed out the flight certificate. We get back in the van at 8:20. There were 6 balloons in total in the area, max 16 people capacity per balloon. Our ballon had 15 people. I was the last one to get drop off my hotel in Goreme at 9:13AM. They offer the 360camera video record and pictures for 30€ or 1200TL.
