Take in the beauty of the Cappadocia from a gentle, free-floating hot air balloon offering a birds-eye-view of the land. The following information is here to help answer your questions and to prepare you for your adventure. There is no better way to see the Cappadocia than by a gentle, free-floating balloon flight over the unique rock formations (called as fairy chimneys), valleys and vineyards.

You see the layout of the wine country and you may even pick some of the places you wish to visit later. Our balloons fly daily, weather permitting, throughout the year. Flying takes place in the early morning when the winds are at their calmest. We will encourage you to be involved, right from the start, by helping the crew to prepare the balloon for flight.

Your flight will last approximately one hour or one hour 45 min, but you should allow three or four hours for the complete trip. After the flight, on landing, we will toast the flight with a glass of Champagne and 'Flight Certificates' will be presented to each passenger. Our retrieve vehicle and crew will be on hand to help pack away the balloon and return us to the launchsite. We all do our best to provide the most memorable flights. We use up-to-date, modern equipment flown by experienced and commercial licensed pilots.

DEPARTURE

At sunrise every day, weather permitting. (Previous years have shown a 95% flying record) Pick-up from hotels in the area can be arranged for no extra charge, and also returns to rejoin tour groups usually around 8.30am.

PROGRAM

Pick-up the passengers from the hotel and go to the take-off site which is carefully chosen depending on the wind direction on that particular day.
We have over 30 different departure points in the area to ensure the most interesting flight-path, as once airborne the balloon will travel free with the wind. Preparation of the equipment takes about 20 minutes and the passengers are welcome to help or to take photographs as they wish.
The flight time is between 1h and 1h.45 and includes both low contour flying and also going high enough to see the whole landscape from above. Because the balloon is separated from the earth, the passengers experience no sensation of fear or vertigo. It is no colder in the air than it is on the ground on that particular day. After the landing and pack-up of the balloon, we offer a celebration of the excellent local champagne and present the flight, certificates before returning to the hotel for a late breakfast.
