Tuncay could not have been more helpful and friendly on our very early morning trip to view the balloons. He is a very safe driver, and made our morning very special. I recommend him highly.

Cappadocia, wow. What a dream!
This part of Turkey, which is also often associated with hot air balloons, is one of our favourite destinations.
Each morning, unless the weather is not suitable, hundreds of balloons take off during the sunrise and float in the sky for a few hours. The show is truly spectacular and worth an early wake up call!
Cappadocia is also where you can find the cave hotel rooms which are typical for this part of Turkey. The accommodation options here are very affordable and unique. My favourites include the Museum Hotel, Local Cave House and the Sultan Cave Suites.

It all started with one balloon... Did you know here in Cappadocia, Turkey more than 150 hot air balloons take flight every morning? It's a magical sight to witness. Travel tip: The balloons are weather dependent so if you'd like a higher chance at witnessing a successful flight, it's best to go in the late spring or summer when the chances of rain are lower.

A place to leave good memories. The main reason to come to Cappadocia is to experience the feeling of flying in a hot air balloon. Book your flight time online with the hot air balloon company in advance. In order to ensure the safety of passengers, various hot-air balloon companies have strict requirements on the take-off conditions of hot-air balloons. It doesn’t have to be good weather to fly. We were lucky to have successfully completed a smooth flight. Taking photos on a hot air balloon with different perspectives gave us a better understanding of the magical karst landscape of Cappadocia. Champagne will be celebrated after the hot air balloon has landed, and flying awards will be given to tourists.
I first met Turkey, like many people, through "Sister Hua Yang". Turkey can be said to be a gift from nature, a country that integrates humanities and nature. Coming to Turkey, one of the most yearning is to take a hot air balloon to overlook Cappadocia, visit Pamukkale, and try sulfur hot springs. Cappadocia has become one of the best hot-air balloon travel destinations in the world due to its unique castel landform. When taking a hot air balloon ride, everyone is most concerned about safety. According to the recommendation of the LONELY PLANET travel book, there are several hot air balloon companies in Cappadocia that can be recommended: Ez-Air Ballons, Kapadokya Ballons, Sultan Ballons, Royal Ballons. The most famous and most expensive one is Royal Ballons, which is said to be a hot air balloon company exclusively owned by the British Royal. Of course, there is a reason to be expensive. Ordinary hot air balloon companies all have hot air balloon certificates, and their family distributes a small piece of gold. Medal. We are traveling in a group, and the tour group chose a hot air balloon from TURCYA, which should be a small company without a transfer. When we applied for the group, it was regarded as the so-called discount. The hot air balloon was half price, which was RMB 950 (domestic report). Hot air balloons usually take 15-20 people per trip. The hot air balloon ride is divided into two batches, one is the departure batch at 6 am, and the other is the departure batch at 7 am. In the first batch, you can see the sunrise. In the second batch, the sunrise cannot be seen. It is a pity that the travel agency chose the second batch, and it was a pity that the sunrise could not be seen. The second batch of hot air balloons took off at 7 o'clock. We got up at about 5:30 and reached the hot air balloon company rest point at about 6 o'clock to eat some snacks. While eating snacks, we saw that the first batch of hot air balloons had begun to take off. At this time the sun has just risen, and the entire sky will be rendered in color, which is very eye-catching. Therefore, it is recommended that you choose to take the hot air balloon in the future and must choose the first batch of rides. The experience will be great. But then again, when I came to Turkey, I was very lucky to be able to ride in a hot air balloon. Hot air balloon takeoff is very harsh on weather conditions, not only the weather is clear, but also the wind direction. Before each takeoff, the hot-air balloon staff would grab a handful of soil and sprinkle it in the air to observe the wind direction. Sometimes a lighter is used for double insurance. So when you come to Turkey to take a hot air balloon, it really depends on RP.

Cappadocia in Turkey is a magical geological wonder. The entire land is full of ravines, and various limestones have evolved into various shapes through natural evolution! This is also a good place to experience hot air balloons!
