Cappadocia Hot Air Balloon Ride

Ismail and crew were exceptionally professional, friendly and informative. They kept a very light and funny environment. We recommend 100% this service

We chose the Turquaz Comport package with a maximum of 16 persons for a more personal experience and we were definitely not disappointed. Every single member of the Turquaz team was amazing from the very nice gentleman who picked us up at our hotel, to the highly skilled and friendly ground crew to the absolutely gifted pilot Ismail we could not be more pleased. After a awe inspiring launch Ismail flew his balloon with a skill and precision that quite simply blew our minds. From the lofty height of approximately 1200 feet to skimming above the hill tops and trees all the while joking and pointing out key features of the landscape Ismail was enthralling. To close off the flight Ismail landed his 16 person basket smoothly and squarely on top of the trailer used to move the balloon and equipment from site to site. Who could imagine that operating a 425,000 square foot balloon with such precision was even possible. On top of that the beauty of the landscape combined with the sight of another 100* balloons in the air was breathtaking. I very highly recommend experiencing the beauty of Cappadocia aboard a Turquaz balloon. You will NOT be disappointed.

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Turquaz Balloons from start to finish. The service was seamless right from the beginning: the shuttle picked us up directly from our hotel and brought us to the launch site, where a light breakfast was waiting for us. Watching the crew set up and inflate the giant balloon was a treat in itself. ​Once we were helped into the basket, Captains Izzet and Ibrahim took us on a flight we will remember for a lifetime. The views over Cappadocia were incredible! A major highlight was when they expertly navigated down into the valley so we could get an up-close look at the Göreme Open Air Museum—ironically the one site we missed on our tour the previous day, so it was a fantastic surprise. ​Captains Izzet and Ibrahim were professional, knowledgeable, polite, and hilarious. They kept us fully informed on what they were doing, explained how hot air balloons operate, and educated us on all the landmarks below. ​After landing, they celebrated with cake, champagne, and orange juice for non-drinkers, followed by a medal and flight certificate ceremony. The shuttle then dropped us back at our hotel hassle-free. I couldn't recommend Turquaz Balloons and their fantastic pilots enough!

It was amazing, very good service from everyone since the pickup from the hotel and drop off, very affordable price 1000 % recommended, fabulous ride

Awesome experience. Definitely one to check off the bucket list especially here in Cappadocia. Pickup to Drop-off was seamless and the views during the balloon ride are unforgettable. The Turquaz team was awesome.

Excellent experience from start to finish. Highly recommend this company. Communication prior to the day was clear and open. Every single staff member we interacted with the day of are professional and make you feel very safe. The guide, Ismail, was awesome. He was knowledgeable, great at what he does, and fun too! A surreal experience. It is worth the money. Lucky we got to fly our first day. You are at the mercy of the weather and you may not be able to fly, so be prepared.

An absolute must do when visiting beautiful Cappadocia. From the pick up in a very comfortable mini bus, the whole experience was just wonderful. The landscapes the flight covers is spectacular and our guides, Izzet Ersoy and Ibrahim Ikman made the whole trip fun, such great characters. The light breakfast and champagne on landing, finished the trip off nicely. A truly unforgettable experience.

It was great from beginning to end, they are well organized and make guests super comfortable and safe. Our balloon pilot was Esme and he was 10 out of 10. The whole crew was amazingly friendly!

Amazing experience! 🎈 Absolutely loved every minute! I was honestly terrified before the flight, but our amazing pilots, Izzet and Ibrahím, made us feel completely safe and relaxed. We were so lucky to have them! They were professional, friendly and reassuring, and I quickly forgot I was ever scared. An unforgettable experience that I would 100% recommend! ❤️🎈
