I highly recommend this hot air balloon experience! Initially, I was a bit hesitant, thinking that a more affordable option might not deliver the same quality as others, but it turned out to be absolutely perfect. The team picked us up directly from our accommodation, and upon arrival at the balloon site, they offered a light snack. They also provided various photo and video packages for an additional cost, which we gladly opted for. After the flight, we celebrated with champagne, and they even dropped us back at our accommodation. One of the standout moments was watching the crew skillfully land the basket directly onto the trailer—it was truly impressive! Eric from guest relations later followed up with us to ensure we were satisfied with the experience, which I thought was a wonderful touch. The attention to detail and client care really set this experience apart!

Hot air ballooning truly is the crown jewel of Cappadocia, whether you're soaring above the breathtaking landscapes or marveling at the spectacle from a cave hotel terrace in Göreme. Our experience with Brothers Hot Air Balloon was nothing short of magical—a once-in-a-lifetime adventure where every second felt extraordinary. From takeoff to landing, we were in the capable hands of true professionals. That said, manage your expectations when it comes to the champagne toast—it’s more like fizzy apple juice (still enjoyable, though!). A special thanks to Hande at Excursion Mania Turkey for seamlessly organizing all the logistics, making everything run smoothly. It’s worth noting that there are countless balloon companies in the area, and with a bit of negotiation, you might score a better deal than we did. Regardless, the experience itself is absolutely priceless. Have you had the chance to watch the balloons from the ground as well? It’s an entirely different kind of magic!
Helpful? Yes
An absolutely spectacular experience—hot air ballooning in Cappadocia is a must! In fact, if you’re visiting Turkey, a trip to Cappado cia should be on everyone’s bucket list. This gave us confidence in choosing Excursionmania, and they did not disappoint! Mete reached out to coordinate our early morning pick-up from the hotel and ensured everything went smoothly. They offer two flights daily—one with a 4:30 AM start and another with a 6:30 AM pick-up. We opted for the earlier flight to catch the sunrise, and it was absolutely worth it! From Mete’s excellent coordination to the skilled balloon pilot and efficient recovery crew, the entire experience was flawless. A big thank you to everyone at Excursiomania for making this unforgettable!

The flight was absolutely wonderful! The entire team was professional, friendly, and entertaining. The transfer organized by Payless Turizm Cappadocia Balloon was seamless.

The balloon ride itself was fantastic, and we had a wonderful time! Payless operates by selling available spots from other companies; our ride was with Skyway Balloons, who were excellent. However, the communication about our pickup point was unclear due to not booking directly with the company. We were strongly advised not to wait at reception, which almost caused us to miss the ride. I recommend checking with your hotel about standard pickup locations and following their advice to avoid any confusion.
Helpful? Yes
It was a great experience overall! We were told the flight would last around an hour, give or take 10 minutes you can probably guess which side of that range we ended up on! Our balloon descended into one valley, which was amazing, though some balloons explored deeper into other valleys with fairy chimneys, which looked incredible. Not all companies do that, so I’m glad we got a bit closer. With more experience, this company might offer that as well. The price was fair and absolutely worth it!

My tour ended so quickly. While others were still flying, my balloon landed unexpectedly on a trailer. When I asked why it made an emergency landing, both the pilot and his assistant exchanged glances, as I seemed to be the only one asking about it. It left me feeling uncertain about the situation.

Great experience! Hotel pickup and drop-off were very convenient. As mentioned in other reviews, don't expect much for breakfast, but that’s not the focus of the experience. The flight was amazing, with a good balance of time, and the pilot took us both low and high. I’d definitely book again if I return!
Helpful? Yes
The activity itself was fine, but we were placed in separate sections of the basket, which meant my wife and I couldn’t take proper photos together. It would have been appreciated if the balloon staff had asked if we were a couple and made sure we were together. Instead, we were separated without any questions as the balloon took off, which was quite disappointing.
Helpful? Yes
The experience itself was wonderful, floating in the balloon as the sun rises. The basket was lively with everyone taking photos and smiling, but a little more peace and quiet would have enhanced the experience. The organization’s photos weren’t really needed and could be skipped. It’s better to just relax and enjoy the moment!

The organization was excellent, and the Balloon Turca staff were very helpful (I contacted them at 4:40 AM due to a late driver, and they responded quickly).

After landing, we were offered light refreshments. I absolutely recommend this experience!

The hot air balloon ride was incredible—I highly recommend this experience in Cappadocia! We had a one-hour flight at sunrise, and it was absolutely breathtaking. The pilot was very professional and kind, and we flew over several valleys, reaching heights of up to 1,000 meters above sea level.
Helpful? Yes
I stayed in Cappadocia for two nights and booked the balloon ride on the first day. The scenery was beyond my expectations. Unfortunately, the flight was canceled the next day, so I didn’t get to see the view from the ground, but I appreciate their safety-first approach. I definitely recommend this experience! Just make sure to check the launch location and whether it will be before or after sunrise when choosing your flight. If I have the chance, I’d love to return to Cappadocia for this experience again.

Everything went perfectly! The company contacted us two days before the flight and again the evening before to confirm the exact pick-up time from our hotel. The pilot was experienced and kept us entertained throughout the flight. The landing was smooth, followed by celebrations with Champagne. They also take photos during the flight and charge 30 Euros, which I feel should be included in the overall cost. Additionally, the breakfast was just a light snack, so calling it a "breakfast" is a bit misleading.

Helpful? Yes
Totally worth it! Everything went smoothly, from the hotel pick-up to the balloon flight. We contacted them on WhatsApp the day before to confirm everything, and they responded immediately.

The hot air balloon ride itself was great, but I found it too expensive for what it offers. The pilot also asked for money for the photos and videos taken during the flight.

Also, there were too many people on the balloon, which impacted the experience.

Incredible experience! The transport to the balloon was a bit late, so we waited for about 45 minutes. It didn’t matter in the end, but we were a bit anxious at first.

Amazing! The best experience of our lives. We are a family with three children, and everyone loved it. The entire process was well organized. We were picked up from the hotel at 4am, given a breakfast with pastries, juice, water, and crackers, then watched as the balloons were prepared. We boarded and marveled at the stunning landscapes, the sunrise, and the other balloons around us—it was breathtaking. We took amazing photos and were offered a great 360 video (for an additional €25). This is definitely a must-do in Cappadocia—missing out on a balloon ride would make your stay less magical. After landing, we were treated to a glass of champagne, then transferred back to the hotel with unforgettable memories. ????????????
Helpful? Yes
Amazing experience! We watched a beautiful sunset, and they took us close to the rocks and up into the air. The 1-hour flight with an experienced pilot was fantastic. Pickup from the hotel was smooth, and they provided a nice breakfast in a bag to take home. Each family had their own section in the balloon. The flight ended with a non-alcoholic champagne toast, and we received a flight certificate. They also took photos and offered them for sale, but there was no pressure. A tip box was available if you wanted to leave something extra. Highly recommended!
Helpful? Yes
Good trip overall. The pilot was incredibly skilled and ensured we had great views while keeping everything safe. The breakfast provided was just some snacks, which was fine.

It was an incredible and beautiful experience. The weather was perfect, and we saw the sunrise clearly. The pilot rotated the balloon so everyone could enjoy the view, and the landing was smooth.

We only received a glass of juice after the flight and a very basic certificate without our names.

Spectacular! We had some doubts due to the high prices, but then we found an option to fly for €125 per person and decided to go for it. The experience was unique and unforgettable. We flew with an extremely experienced pilot who took us through valleys that few others reached, and the views were stunning. I highly recommend it—if you visit Cappadocia, flying in a balloon is a must!
Helpful? Yes
This activity is truly out of this world! Don’t let the more affordable price fool you—this company is just as good, if not better, than the others. We flew on Wednesday, July 17th. Pickup time was given 24 hours in advance, and they arrived right on time. If you're staying in Goreme (shoutout to Arif Cave Hotel, the best!), it’s only a 10-minute drive to the flight area. We got a small breakfast (croissant, snack, juice, water) and watched as the team skillfully prepared the balloons. We boarded 15 minutes before sunrise and took off with hundreds of other balloons. The pilot was fantastic, turning the balloon so everyone could get a great view and even flying through the valleys—something I didn’t think was possible in a balloon! Take a few pictures, then put your phone away and truly enjoy the experience. Too many people spoil it by focusing too much on photos. After landing, the team serves champagne and hands out certificates. A 10/10 experience with a great company!

The experience was absolutely breathtaking! The transport was on time, and we got in the air at the perfect moment to catch the sunrise. I was worried about being crowded, but they placed 4 people in each separate section of the basket, so everyone had space for photos. The Insta360 photos/videos cost an additional €10 per person, which I feel should be included in the price. Breakfast was okay—juice, water, pretzels, and a prepackaged croissant—but there wasn’t much time to eat, so most people took it back to their hotels. We also got a paper certificate and pomegranate juice in a champagne flute. Overall, I loved the tour, but I would suggest removing the breakfast and juice and including the 360 video in the price instead.

She wouldn’t let me take photos, kept crossing in front of me, stood in the background, and complained a lot. It really made the experience unpleasant.

The experience was unique. PROS: The pick-up was punctual, and safety was a top priority. CONS: The belts were tangled, making it hard to move around the basket. Additionally, the pilot focused mostly on one side, which made it difficult for us to get good pictures from the other side. The view was less exposed, with fewer hot air balloons in the background.

I understand your concern regarding the price difference. Since you paid €250 per person, and other agencies in the city charge €150, it seems reasonable to inquire about a refund or credit. However, policies on refunds or price adjustments can vary depending on the company you booked with. I recommend reaching out to their customer service team directly, explaining the situation, and asking if they can offer a partial refund or credit for a future purchase. Be sure to mention the price difference and how it could accommodate an additional person. Best of luck, and I hope they are understanding of your request!

It was a magical experience! I highly recommend it, even for those with a fear of heights— you don't feel anything, and the beauty is unreal. It's hard to fully describe what you see and feel. The driver was on time, even waiting 10-15 minutes for others who weren’t ready, which was a bit of a mistake as he didn’t follow the 5-minute rule. We didn't get left behind at the hotel. Once at the balloon, they offered breakfast (a small water, a bag of pretzels, and a chocolate cone), but we were so captivated by the surroundings that we didn’t eat. The take-off and landing were smooth. It was perfect, and taking your time during the experience is a huge plus!

The day before, the activity company informed me of the specific pick-up time via WhatsApp. On the day, they picked me up from the hotel on time, so I was able to join without any stress. There were many balloons in the air, and I got to enjoy the stunning scenery. The flight lasted about an hour, and the guide was really engaging and interesting!

The transportation, guide, and overall experience were all exceptional. At the end of the flight, we even got to toast to the experience with both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, along with a homemade cake! It was truly one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever had!

It was a unique experience, but the cost was very high—almost triple what I would have paid if I booked the flight on-site. Since it was low season (March 5), the prices were much lower, and I probably would have only spent €50 if I booked locally. I recommend arriving in Göreme and checking out the physical stores before purchasing online. Also, there were 32 passengers, not 28 as mentioned.

It was a very safe activity, and the pick-up was on time. It was definitely worth it— a wonderful and unforgettable experience. They even gave us a snack before the activity. I highly recommend them!
