Cappadocia Hot Air Balloon Ride

You will be picked up from your hotel in the Göreme or Ürgüp area at approximately 4:00 am in a comfortable, air-conditioned minivan. Exact pick-up time depends on your hotel location in Cappadocia.

Cappadocia offers one of the world’s most stunning natural landscapes, shaped over millions of years as volcanic ash eroded into colorful layers, dramatic spires, and the iconic ‘fairy chimneys.’ A hot-air balloon ride is the ultimate way to experience these breathtaking formations from above.

Upon arrival at the launch site, you will board your shared hot-air balloon, which accommodates up to 22 passengers. Your flight will last approximately 60 minutes, reaching altitudes of around 1,000 feet (300 meters) for panoramic views of canyons, spires, plateaus, and the ancient volcano that shaped this remarkable region.

After gently landing, you’ll celebrate with a traditional Champagne toast before being transferred back to your hotel in Cappadocia, arriving at approximately 7:30 am (depending on location).
