Bad communication

Priya_S, May 2024

Our tour ended up cancelled due to weather - which isn’t the tour groups fault. I can’t say much about how the balloon ride would’ve been but I was very disappointed with the communication. We messaged them the day before through viator and on WhatsApp with no response. The balloons leave at 5:30am and all we saw on the site was that the time was 5:30 and the pickup point was our hotel, but there was no info on when they’d come get us (& no response when I asked). Finally after we had slept they messaged us at 11:30 saying it was cancelled. I then messaged to ask if we could reschedule - this was followed again by no response and then an email soon after showing they cancelled it. I should be getting my refund soon but disappointed with the lack of communication. By comparison, we rescheduled with another group and got an email early afternoon the day before our tour telling us our pickup time was 4:20am.

Total Scam

Harishma_N, Apr 2024

The ride got cancelled without any prior or post infomation.i tried calling them but there is no response whatsoever. I want my money back or do the ride tomorrow without any additional charges. This is very frustrating and the worst customer experience I have ever had. Kindly do the needful as i am a tourist and i will make sure that if nothing is done about this , i will sue Viator for this scam.

Incredibile

iva_g, Apr 2024

The best experience ever ! Would definitely do it again and again! The tour guys were so nice and careful and they made sure everything was perfect!

Great Experience & Value for Money

Shilpa_V, Apr 2024

Great experience. Better than paying some crazy amounts that other operators charge. They didn't have champagne or food - but that's not what we wanted anyways.

One of the best excursions

Tanya_M, Apr 2024

I had such an amazing time, This was a mind blowing experience that i recommend to anyone. Thank god we were able to fly cause the pilot said if the winds & weathers conditions are bad we couldn’t fly. Thank you guys for a wonderful experience

Good experience but not worth the mioney.

Anuj_S, Mar 2024

Flying over the chimney and other natural structures. It appears other balloons were flying much higher than ours which seemed like we were shortchanged so disappointed in that regards. Also, the flight lasted only about 50 mins so not quite an hour.

Amazing and astonishing!

ANDIS_U, Jan 2024

The beauty of the rocks was really amazing… It was a long lifetime memories! I will surely tell all my friends to come to Cappadocia at least once in their lifetime.

A mesmerizing ballon ride!

Ghazali_M, Jan 2024

Very well organized Ballon ride. Hotel pick up and drop off was on time. Breathtaking views of Cappadocia from the air. A mesmerizing experience indeed. Loved the Champagne ceremony at the end of the ride. Strongly recommended.

Hot air balloons tour

Willie_C, Jan 2024

The experience surrounded by 100+ other hot air balloons was truly magical. However, we didn’t really receive the champagne as advertised, only sparkling cider was served. .

A lifetime’s experience

Ashfaaq_T, Dec 2023

A must when going to Cappadocia. Worth the hype and definitely one of the best attractions to do in Goreme.

Good but a few cons

Abigail_B, Oct 2023

The balloon ride itself was fabulous, we got to see some beautiful views, and the pilots were pleasant. Pros: The views of all the balloons taking off was incredible, and our balloon felt safe and all the employees felt very competent. And the champagne at the end of the ride was fun! The car picking us up was on time and the breakfast was simple by fine. Cons: The balloons are on a rotating schedule for takeoffs and our day this balloon was in the last group to launch so we were just barely up in time for sunrise. While we would have loved to be earlier, that’s not something you can control when booking. Also, we stood around for a while when we arrived at the site without any clear directions or explanations. The “Safety briefing” was a one sided card and then an explanation for how to brace yourself when we landed, which was sufficient if a little sparse.

Breathtaking

Lucian_T, Oct 2023

Once in a lifetime experience in such s magical place. Didn't know it takes so much people and logistics to launch those balloons. Worth every penny.

The balloon ride was amazing. The terrain and city views from above during sunrise are fantastic. The entire sky gets filled with colorful balloons.

Experience of a Lifetime

Kartikey_R, Sep 2023

It was amazing. Seeing the sunrise. Cold wind blowing through the face and so many balloons all around. Good service by the team. Definitely pictures can't justify the experience. 🙌
