About A Hot Air Balloon Flight

Hot Air Balloon Cappadocia: Cappadocia is a landscape like no other in the world. Cappadocia in central Turkey is perhaps most well-known for the panoramic view of hundreds of hot air balloons ebbing and flowing above valleys and volcanic “fairy chimney” formations. Though it is but one of the many things to do in Cappadocia, hot air ballooning is one of the most popular activities in the region for a number of reasons

Cappadocia, preserved as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is famous for its chimney rocks and hot air balloon trips. A total of 437,516 tourists enjoyed hot air balloon tours in Turkey’s charming touristic hub, Cappadocia, between January and September, according to data compiled by the Anadolu news agency.

The majority of hot air balloons in Cappadocia take off just before sunrise. The tour companies collect you in buses from local accommodation and cave hotels between 4-5am, and take you to their office where you sign waivers before being taken to the launch site. This is probably not an experience for anyone suffering with vertigo. While the heights you reach in your hot air balloon will depend on weather conditions and your pilot’s experience, there will be moments when you can’t believe how far away the ground looks!
