Cappadocia
The Cappadocia region of Turkey is the perfect location for a hot-air balloon flight. After complimentary pickup from your hotel by comfortable, air-conditioned minivan, take in views of the Turkish countryside as you head to the hot-air balloon office, where you’ll enjoy a complimentary light breakfast of fruit, sandwich, cold and hot drinks. Head to the nearby launch field and watch as your 100-foot tall (30-meter) hot-air balloon is inflated before boarding the balloon basket with your experienced pilot. Then, up you go! As you fly through the Cappadocia valleys, take a close look at the rock formations and listen to your pilot's interesting commentary about Cappadocia's history and geological formations. See churches and houses carved into the rocks as the balloon climbs approximately 1,000 feet (300 meters). You would be presented with Royal Medal after flight.

5.00Highly recommend this experience. Royal balloon company created an awesome event and exceeded expectations for professionalism and safety. They absolutely have the balloon set up down pat - was important to us given the inherent risk of balloon ride.
A magical experience!

5.00We rode with Ömür & everything was perfection. Spring for the king ride. We had 8 people total which gave us plenty of space to take pictures. For 20 euros, you can buy pictures and videos from outside the balloon which are worth it. There is breakfast beforehand and we got medals at the end. The entire crew took exceptional care of us. We felt safe and happy the entire time. Mustafa is super fun! THANK YOU to Royal Balloon. :)
Well if u r in Cappadocia...

5.00The smoothest ride! It was an amazing experience, from pick up to drop off, the Royal Balloon team is extremely professional and kind. The breakfast is plentiful and a good way to kick off the day (which started at 4am!!) We went on to the take off place, watching the balloon filling up was very interesting! And then we hoped on onto to basket and Ahmed Basyigit, our amazing pilot took us on the smoothest ride over the main key points around Goreme. Ahmed pointed out all the interesting points, largely enriching the experience. To top off, we had a perfect landing on top of the trailer, perfectly ending this amazing trip. Thank you to all the Royal Balloon team, who were very attentive throughout the full experience.
