We were picked up at our hotel, driven to a gathering spot where we had a delicious and filling breakfast, and then we were driven to meet our pilot, get a safety briefing, and embark on our flight. Restrooms are at the place where you have breakfast...there is nothing at the field where you board your balloon. We counted 82...

We went on the balloon trip yesterday morning. Following the recommedation of our landlady we booked the "Deluxe" flight. Not a cheap fun, but absolutely worth it. Starting from a place in Zemi valley (away from the mass starting places) we had a really great experience. Special thanks to our pilot Serhan - he was so experienced, calm and relaxed...

Kapadokya balloons are really well organised and professional. We were picked up from the hotel, driven to a venue where we had a tasty Turkish breakfast. The balloon ride was brilliantly organised, the pilot Hatem was Egyptian and had been flying for many years. He took us down low, up high and landed gently in a field at the end....

Once we made...

It was interesting how they initially took us to a restaurant for while, pre flight and then we watched anatolian balloons blow their balloons up in a car park in front of a restaurant. They then put us into vans and we drove further into the valley to the top of hills where our balloons were being blown up. That...

The flight was a great experience. Seeing all these balloons over the amazing landscape is an unforgettable sight. The whole operation was very well organized and we felt very safe with our pilot Mustafa. Mustafa explained a lot of interesting facts about the area, about the balloons and piloting balloons. It was a lot of fun to watch balloons prepared...
