“Must do in Cappadocia. Upon check in light breakfasts available. One of the best Hot Air Balloon experiences we have had as a family. It was peaceful and surreal. The Goreme Valley was stunning at sunrise. Our pilot Furkan was funny and informative and he could maneuver the balloon like a pro. Definitely ask for him when booking. Upon landing, we had champagne, orange juice and chocolate cake with strawberries. Perfect ending. 10/10 highly recommend.”

Review of Butterfly Balloons in Cappadocia, with flight details, safety advice, pricing, pickup, group size, weather rules, and booking tips.

“What a cool experience! We were in great hands with our pilot Ali Riza, and it sounds like we were lucky to get up this time of year at all due to the weather. We cruised quite far and the coordination between the pilots and the ground team was amazing to witness. The whole crew was amazingly professional, kind, and very skilled.
