Cappadocia Hotair Balloon
#summerfest Taking a hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia is an experience that defies description – it's a journey into a realm of magic and wonder that stays etched in your memory forever. The moment the balloon gently lifts off the ground, you're transported into a surreal world where the earth below seems to shrink away, and you're suspended in a tapestry of colors and shapes.
The sight of 150 other hot air balloons rising simultaneously creates a spectacle that's nothing short of breathtaking. It's as if the sky itself comes alive with a ballet of vibrant colors and graceful movements. The sense of camaraderie among the balloons adds to the enchantment, making you feel like a part of something truly extraordinary.
As the sun begins its ascent, the world around you transforms. The soft hues of dawn cast a mesmerizing glow over the otherworldly landscapes of Cappadocia, painting the rugged terrain and ancient rock formations with a palette of gold and rose. Witnessing the sunrise from such a vantage point is a privilege that touches the soul, reminding you of the sheer beauty and wonder that exists in our world.
For many, a hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia ranks among the top highlights of a lifetime. The mixture of awe and exhilaration, coupled with the surreal surroundings, creates a sensory overload that leaves an indelible mark on your heart. Even if you have a fear of heights, like I did, the sheer magnitude of the experience overwhelms any apprehensions. The sense of freedom and wonder that comes with being suspended in the sky erases all doubts, and you find yourself embracing the moment with an open heart.
In retrospect, my hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia is a memory I hold dear – a memory that embodies the essence of adventure, beauty, and overcoming personal boundaries. It's an experience I wouldn't trade for the world, and one that I would readily embark upon again without hesitation. If you're seeking a journey that transcends the ordinary and transports you into a realm of pure enchantment, a hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia is an absolute must.
Sunrise 🌄 & Sunset 🌅 Cappadocia!
#wecreate 📍 Cappadocia, Goreme Turkiye
“Fairy Chimneys” and Hot balloon rides 🎈 .
Cappadocia is such a historic place to visit, it’s UNESCO site and a lot to discover by day, just walk around or organise a tour to see some of the most historic ruins, caves and museums. The sunset colours are amazing! Those yellow, orange and red hues over the “ Fairy Chimneys” turns so magical and beautiful to watch 🧡💛❤️
If you never been to Cappadocia before we highly recommend you to visit this world heritage, you won’t be disappointed. Once you enter the caves you’re back in time.. These original rock formations, balloon flights and cave towns where people have lived for millennia. The locals who inhabited there carved out these caves to make their own homes inside. These ancient settlements are located in cliff walls, and some others in the mountains.
Where to stay: Rox Cappadocia Cave Boutique Hotel
Do you want to experience a sunset moments with wine tasting or celebrate special occasion? We arranged ours with a company: Flame Travel and Events 🍷 🧀 🍇 🌅

Goreme Town Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Incredible sunrise in Cappadocia
This morning was one of the most magical in my life. I woke up at 4 a.m., opened the window and listened to the sounds outside. It seems quiet… When suddenly the sounds of popping and gas burners began to be heard in the distance - and I realized that it was time to hurry!
Just an hour later, I was standing on top of a mountain in the city of Goreme and watched the sky fill with dozens and hundreds of balloons. God, am I really seeing this with my own eyes? To this day, when I remember this feeling, I get goosebumps 😍

Missing Cappadocia so much!
Cappadocia was such a lovely place! Beautiful scenery and weather mashaAllah. I’d go again and again, and hope I could afford to ride the hot air balloon 🎈 next time 🤣
Goreme
Göreme is a village of around 2,000 people in Nevşehir province in Central Anatolia. It is well known for its ''fairy chimneys', rock formations, many of which were hollowed out in the Middle Ages to create houses, churches and 'underground cities'. Göreme was formerly known as Korama, Matiana, Macan and Avcilar.
Come to Goreme, Turkey, and experience the thrilling ATV ride
Goreme, a small town in Turkey, is known as an open-air museum, a World Cultural and Natural Heritage site, famous for its unique landscape and romantic hot air balloons, attracting tourists from all over the world.
The town now exists for tourism, with various specialty shops and well-developed, safe tour routes. You can idle in a cave hotel or freely explore the national geological park. You can also join a day tour, among which, besides hot air balloons, the ATV Tour is undoubtedly the most popular activity.
🌟Highlights:
ATV, also known as an all-terrain vehicle, has a cool design and is suitable for any terrain. The downside is that speed and balance must be properly controlled, especially when turning or going uphill or downhill.
You can choose to rent and drive on your own, but most people prefer to join a tour group. The sunset route is the most popular; departing in the afternoon is neither hot nor tiring. You can experience speed and passion along with the tour, meandering through the strangely shaped valleys, stopping occasionally to take photos, beautiful, lively, and safe.
Especially when returning after watching the sunset, all the teams converge on one road, marching in a grand procession, which is spectacular!
💰Price: 180RMB for one person per vehicle, 220RMB for two people per vehicle (for reference only)
🕙Duration: About 2-3 hours
🗓Approximate Itinerary:
1. Wait at the hotel, the driver will pick you up and take you to the starting point. A group usually consists of about 10 vehicles, generally two people per vehicle.
2. After arriving at the company, you will be assigned masks and helmets, and you can choose your vehicle and get accustomed to it.
3. Departure, the route includes brief stops at about 5 points, with the climax being the sunset, where you can admire the golden Rose Valley under the afterglow and a 360-degree panoramic view.
4. After watching, regroup and ride back to the starting point. It is customary to open a bottle of champagne to celebrate, and finally, you will be taken back to your hotel.
📝Tips:
1. Masks and sunglasses are a must because the route is dusty;
2. No matter the season, it's best to wear a thin jacket, as it can be a bit chilly in the morning and evening.
3. Pay special attention when turning or going uphill, as the front of the vehicle is heavy and lacks agility. Be cautious with the brakes or steering to avoid drifting and potential accidents.

Hot Air Balloon Cappadocia Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Cappadocia Hot Air Balloon Tour: Exploring the Art Created by Earth
Fly in a hot air balloon in Cappadocia! This is my second luxurious hot air balloon flight in Cappadocia since 2014!
Cappadocia is listed as a World Heritage Site, known for its hot air balloon flights, but in fact it is a rare 'comprehensive heritage', combining 'natural landscape' and 'human history'.
This land stretches about 50 kilometers from north to south, eroded by long-term wind and rain. As shown in the photo, there are unique rocks that cannot be seen elsewhere, including rocks like chimneys and hills. It's simply the art created by the earth!!
In addition, a huge underground city has formed deep underground, hundreds of meters below the ground. These underground cities were built by Christians about 1600 years ago. This is where the persecuted hid. Even from the hot air balloon, you can see many entrance caves on the rock wall. (You can look for them in the photos)
Hot air balloons are fragile objects that require specific meteorological conditions to fly. Until the day before, I didn't know if I could fly, but this time during my stay in Cappadocia, I flew every day😭✨Amazing, right!? (By the way, it is said that there was no flight the day before and the next day)
The flight time is from 7 am to 8 am, lasting an hour. That day there were about 100 hot air balloons. The hot air balloons floated up and down like marshmallows, and the highest flight altitude that day actually reached 600 meters (!). Along the way, we also saw the sunrise, which was a very satisfying aerial walk.
Many hot air balloon companies allow 'rescheduling to the next day when unable to fly', so be sure to check when booking✌
Bring your beloved to romantic Turkey🇹🇷❤️🔥
In the heart of Turkey lies a place where dreams take flight among the clouds - Cappadocia. Here are a few useful tips if you would like to take the Hot air balloon with your Beloved💞⬇️.
🎈Timing is Everything: The magic of Cappadocia's hot air balloons unfolds during the early morning hours, just before sunrise🌅(around 5 am).
🎈Find the right accommodation: Make sure to stay in 🪵Goreme🪵 when visiting Cappadocia. This is where the hot air balloons take off, so you'll have the best chance to see them. If you're feeling adventurous, try a cave hotel⛰ for a unique experience.
🎈Book in Advance: Cappadocia is a popular destination for adventurers and romantics alike💗. Secure your spot in the sky to ensure that you will not miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime experience.❗️
🎈Choose the best viewing spots: Don't miss out on the Sunset/Sunrise/Balloons Highest View spots. They offer a panoramic view of the balloons filling the sky from all directions. Get there early to secure your spot and enjoy the breathtaking sight. Remember, the balloons take off after sunrise, so plan accordingly.
🎈Dress the Part: Dress warmly, as it can get chilly during the early morning flights.🥶Additionally, wearing layers🧣 will allow you to adapt to the changing temperatures as you ascend.
🎈Extend the Magic: The adventure doesn't have to end once your balloon touches the ground. Spend a few extra days exploring Cappadocia's unique rock formations, underground cities, and charming villages hand in hand with your partner.🇹🇷
As you ascend into the Cappadocian skies, let the breathtaking landscapes mirror the beauty of your relationship. With careful planning and a touch of romance, you can transform your journey into a love story chapter that will be cherished forever. 🎈🌄💑

Göreme Open Air Museum Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Goreme open air museum is an unique place
Getting There - Goreme open air museum is located walking distance from Goreme city center. If you like walking in the beautiful nature and take photos, it just about 20 mins of walking.
Attractions - entry ticket costs 480 lira and it takes about 1 hour to walk around. There was full of unique shaped rocks. Definitely worth visiting.
Hotels - I recommend to stay in a hotel with terrace so you can enjoy watching beautiful view with hundreds of balloons rising during the sun rise. Those photos were taken from our hotel terrace.
Food & Restaurants - Must try food is pottery kebab in Cappadocia. It was very delicious. #goreme #cappadocia

hot Air Balloons at Cappadocia Turkey
Cappadocia in central Turkey is perhaps most well-known for the panoramic view of hundreds of hot air balloons gently ebbing and flowing above valleys and volcanic “fairy chimney” formations. Though it is but one of the many things to do in Cappadocia, hot air ballooning is one of the most popular activities in the region for a number of reasons.

Rose Valley Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Horse riding thru’ Goreme’s stunning valleys
Come explore the unique yet raw landscapes of Cappadocia when you get into a horseback and ride through the region’s stunning and picturesque valleys. I had a two-hour experience on these beautiful horses and my guide provided me very clear crash course on how to ride a horse. And there we rode! Along the ups and downs of the valleys, you would get to see visitors hiking and a small cafe at the bottom of a little hill. Up the hill, there is a little church which was partially destroyed but still kept in good shape for visitors to tour. This experience is ought to be tried. I encourage everyone to go for it!#turkey #cappadocia #horseriding

#celebratewithtrip
The sunsets here are simply one of the best in the world. Rocks are seen as pink and very romantic. The canyon is very big, you need to go uphill and downhill, and you can't finish it in three hours. You need to prepare water and food, and when you reach the top of the mountain, you can rest, watch the sunset, and chat with friends. When going down the mountain, you can take a taxi down the mountain at the next station, about eight dollars
