Exceptional kindness from the entire team, dedicated to providing us with this unique family experience! Away from the traffic near Goreme, there were only a few hot-air balloons, so the spirit was authentic and the team attentive: the incredible kindness of our driver with our 6-year-old, a passionate and brilliant pilot, guaranteed thrills, peace and gentleness in this breathtaking landscape, where the intimacy allows you to contemplate serenely and savor every second. We recommend a thousand times over to get away from Goreme to appreciate this authentic Cappadocia, even if you have to get up 1 hour earlier to get there, the experience is truly extraordinary.

I want to comment that the experience is great and for those who want to take it, I highly recommend it. It is important to understand that there are 4 valleys in Cappadocia and that this tour is on the green valley, not on the rocky areas known as red valley. The view is also great and you enjoy seeing the mountains still covered with snow.

Excellent punctuality, friendly treatment, the flight is magnificent and there are not so many people in the basket, so you can move and take pictures during the overhead... excellent pilot, very good landing...breakfast was a cup of tea and some kind of warm quesadillas. Total time from hotel pick up to arrival back almost 4 hours and a half.... thank you very much, super recommended.

The hot-air balloon flight was pleasant but I think it's a shame to advertise a breakfast when there really isn't one - it's a snack, it would be more honest to say that.
