We flew as a group of 11, three families flying together. Our friends made the choice of company after their usual detailed research. It paid off. I don't like heights, and did not intend to go on the ride until just a few days before. I'm so glad I did. The ride was fantastic. Pre-dawn pickup, registration at the office... more

My wife and I did a 1-hour balloon tour with Kapadokya in September 2009. They provided an outstanding ride that gave us fantastic views of scenic Cappadocia. The staff exhibited nothing but top notch professionalism. There are a slew of balloon companies in Capapdocia, but there are a few things that separate Kapadokya from the rest. First, they take more... more

I thought the experience was fine overall, although not "magical" as some have said. We were picked up early (i.e. 4:45) in the morning in a van shared by other tourists staying in other hotels. Our driver was a little late and so we though we'd missed him; we ended up getting to the KB office a bit late, but... more

We, like most people, do not spend every other weekend in a hot air balloon. So, given how expensive an activity it is, we wanted to make sure that we picked the right location and the right company. Cappadocia is pretty obviously the former: it's hard to imagine that many other landscapes could be better suited to providing such fantastic... more

We had a great time with Kapadokya balloons. The staff are extremely helpful and well informed and Kaili out pilot was very good. First time we went on a balloon trip and it was one of the best experiences ever. I highly recommend it. more

I booked with this balloon company after much reviewing of other companies. Yes, they might be a little more but I promise you won't be disappointed. They are the only company that actually travels through valleys! All the other balloon companies just go straight up and dangle there for about an hour. How boring! We traveled about 10 miles and... more

We went on the two-hour balloon ride with Kapadokya Balloons in late May and it was fantastic. The price is steep, but worth every penny for a unique experience and a unique perspective of Cappadocia. It's a well-run organization, that stresses making the ride an exceptional - and safe - experience for everyone. The route for the trip is chosen... more

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our flight with Kapadokya Balloons. From start to finish, husband and wife team Lars and Kaili run a class act. The morning started with a 4:30 a.m. pick up from our hotel. Then we were brought to their headquarters, paid, and were given coffee and cookies while waiting to be transported to the take-off... more

If you have paid for a trip to Turkey don't skimp and miss out on a chance to take a hot air balloon ride. I know there are many different balloon companies but this one is worth paying extra for. lars and kalli the pilots are amazing, talented, informative, and I felt very safe. There are some upstart companies that... more
