Tour Itinerary

Balloon Flight at Sunrise

Meal - No meal included

Standard sunrise balloon flight - Pickup is arranged before sunrise, followed by passenger check-in, balloon preparation, pilot safety briefing, approximately 60 minutes in the air and return transfer after landing. The exact launch field is selected each morning according to wind direction and Civil Aviation rules.

Hotel pickup before sunrise: Your driver collects you from your Cappadocia hotel while the region is still dark and transfers you to the operator check-in area. Pickup time changes by season because sunrise time moves throughout the year.
Launch field and preparation: The launch field is chosen on the morning of the flight according to wind direction and official permissions. While the balloons are inflated, the pilot and ground crew prepare the basket, fuel system and passenger loading order.
Balloon flight: The flight usually lasts about one hour, moving at different altitudes above valleys, village edges and fairy chimneys. The pilot controls altitude rather than direction, so each flight path is shaped by the morning wind.
Landing and certificate: After landing, the ground crew secures the basket and assists passengers safely out. A certificate or small memento is provided when available, and then you are transferred back to your hotel or connected to the next tour service.

We went up as dozens of other balloons were launching, so the sky was full of colour the whole flight. Champagne and a certificate after. Lovely crew, faultless morning.

We rose over Goreme while the town was still waking, lights on in the cave hotels below, then out over the valleys as the sun came up. The pilot had a lovely calm way about him and gave us a proper unhurried flight.

Expected the wide sunrise views, didnt expect the pilot to take us right down between the rock walls of a valley, close enough to make out the pigeon houses carved into the stone. Genuinely thrilling without ever once feeling unsafe. Then back up for the panorama with the sun fully over the ridge and a hundred balloons around us. A soft landing onto the trailer and a toast to finish. Brilliant crew, brilliant pilot, brilliant morning from start to end.

I have a real fear of heights, the kind where glass floors make me feel sick, and I booked this purely because my friends bullied me into it and I didnt want to be the one who stayed in bed. I spent the dark drive over quietly panicking. Here is the thing nobody tells you, a balloon is nothing like a balcony or a glass floor. The basket is solid and high sided, the ascent is impossibly gentle, and there is no swaying or lurching, you just float. Within five minutes my fear had simply evaporated and I was leaning out for photos like everyone else. The pilot was reassuring and skilled, the views over the chimneys at sunrise were beyond anything I can describe, and the landing was so soft I didnt feel the basket touch. If you are scared like I was, please dont let it stop you, this turned out to be the proudest and most beautiful hour of my entire trip.
