Absolutely unforgettable experience with Discovery Balloons! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and professional. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and made us feel completely safe and comfortable throughout the journey. The balloon ride itself was magical — breathtaking views of Cappadocia at sunrise, smooth takeoff, and a very gentle landing. The pilot was highly skilled and shared interesting insights during the flight, which made the experience even more special. Hotel pickup was on time, safety standards were top-notch, and the overall experience exceeded expectations. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Cappadocia — 100% worth it! 🌅🎈
Highly recommend the Balloon flight in Cappadocia.

It was safe & comfortable. It was a very enjoyable flight, and I was really happy to see them fly, even though they cancelled four days in a row until the day before because it was winter.
Incredible winter flight!

Once-in-a-lifetime experience! Breathtaking views of Cappaddocia! Must do! Pilot Furkan is very experienced, giving us so much confidence on the hot balloon rides. This is my maiden ride. Learnt from other friends the landing can be quite bumpy. But Furkan and his team did an amazing job in having a soft landing right on the tractor. Amazing!

Amazing experience. Loved it. Our captain Alper Can Polat gave everyone confidence with his experience and handling of the balloon. The whole organisation was very good, transfer pick up was spot on time, coffee and pastries while we read the safety briefing and a glass of bubbly afterwards. An experience I shall never forget. Thankyou!
Great experience!

This was an absolute highlight of our trip to Turkey. Our pilot Ferkar was friendly, professional and had a great sense of humor. I was a bit nervous beforehand but it was very clear that we were in excellent hands. The scenery is awe-inspiring. We went up on a cloudy day but went up above the cloud level to bright blue skies - it was simply amazing. I highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting Goreme.
