Customer Reviews
A very full day. You need stamina. But it is worth it. The balloon ride is peaceful. The fairy chimneys are weird and wonderful. The guide was excellent.
Alhamdulillah, a beautiful experience. The halal food was good. The guide was respectful of prayer times. The scenery is a creation of Allah that must be seen. Very happy.
I proposed to my girlfriend in the balloon! She said yes! The rest of the day was a blur of happiness but the tour seemed great too. The guide congratulated us. Best day ever.
Molto bello! Il volo in mongolfiera è stupendo. Il tour è interessante. La guida parlava bene inglese. Cibo buono. Tutto perfetto.
The landscape of Cappadocia is like nowhere else. Seeing it from the air and the ground in one day is the best way to experience it. Great tour package.
