Itinerary
Although it changes seasonally, you will be taken from the hotel in Cappadocia by the transfer car and brought to the balloon departure point approximately 1 hour before sunrise. Here, you will have the chance to watch the Hot Air Balloon being prepared for flight by the experienced crew and take unique photos & videos. We will have shared your pick-up time from the hotel the day before the experience.
After the Hot Air Balloon is ready to fly, you will be invited to the basket by the ground crew. Then your experienced pilot will give a brief briefing on flight safety. Within minutes, the Balloon will slowly take off. You will have discovered the unique fairy chimneys, volcanic valley and rock formations of Cappadocia to the fullest from the sky. The Hot Air Balloon Ride will take approximately 50-70 minutes. Balloons are subject to the wind, they are the most primitive but safest aircraft in the world. It has no rudder or steering wheel. The pilot can rotate the balloon around its axis, descend and ascend. The wind determines the direction of the wind. The pilot determines the take-off area accordingly and plans the best quality flight he can offer.
The pilot will have landed safely at the most suitable point he has planned. This usually happens on a trailer. But sometimes ground crew support is required for safe landing. After the security measures to be taken and the deflating of the Balloon, you will get out of the basket. It is traditional and a champagne celebration is held after every safe flight. A flight certificate is then issued. After the ceremony, transfer cars will be waiting for you. You will be dropped off at your hotel and the experience will be completely over.

We got the baloon ride,and it was simply amazing. Transfer from hotel was very fast with just two stops along the way. The flight was truly breathtaking, with first sunlight spreading across the valley it took us up to more then 1100m up. The pilot of the baloon was also very nice,he was happy to answer any of ours questions ,and cracking jokes all the way. There was around 20 passengers in the cabin,but it was still pretty spacious.
Absolutely magical! The hot air balloon flight was one of the most unforgettable moments of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — punctual, safe, caring crew, and of course, the breathtaking views of Cappadocia at sunrise! Special thanks to the team of the Tubos Travel Cappadocia — true professionals with kind hearts. You made our dream come true. Highly recommended with all our heart!
It was a great experience - the communication was smooth, we got picked up from the hotel at the agreed time, and the balloon flight was amazing! They've even managed to land the balloon exactly on the trailer bed which normally transports the basket, which was super impressive! I understand this is not always possible, and depends a lot on the wind, but it just shows you the skill of the captain!
I highly recommend doing this, it’s truly magical. They are very professional and communicate really well. They’re also very skilled in flying the balloon I was amazed by how well trained they are. Again, it’s nothing less than a must do.
Excellent work. They delivered what they advertised with punctuality and friendliness. There were 9 of us who enjoyed a convenient pick up and drop off. Our special thanks go to Ahmet who was very thoughtful with us. Highly recommended.
Best experiences. Well planned and coordinated. Driver was punctual, the pilot and staff on the hot air was fun. Ahmet and his team from turbos travel are very efficient and honest. He reduced the price of my ride on his own when he got more participants. Trustworthy and genuine. Would highly recommend.
This was how we started our trip to Turkey and it was absolutely perfect. We were picked up right from our hotel and the staging area was very close by with some coffee and tea for you while you wait and watch the balloons get filled. The ride up was so smooth, and the sunrise views were unforgettable. It felt truly magical - it was everything I hoped it would be and more! We were dropped back off at our hotel after drinks when we landed. Do not miss your chance to try this!
The hot air balloon ride was absolutely gorgeous! It was an hour ride and the captain who drove the balloon made it a very smooth ride. The view was spectacular. In terms of breakfast they gave us water, pretzel packet and one croissant, this could have been better. Transport was on time
Well organised activity, always keeping in touch, explaining all the minor details. Nice caring people and highly skilled pilots.
We had a wonderful time. A must do! From pick up at the start, the ballon ride itself, and drop off at the end, the service was excellent. The company was prompt, responsive and very professional. They delivered a great experience!
Well organized, and fun! We enjoyed this activity a lot. This is a must do in Cappadocia and this company comes highly recommended.
First of all Ahmet is really helpful and accommodates all your needs and concerns. They pick you up from your accommodation and bring you to the location where you get to enjoy the process of the set up for the hot air balloon which is really cool. The hot air balloon flight was overall amazing and worth every penny. You get to enjoy the calmness of the morning, the sunrise over the amazing landscape and the amazing view with all the balloons up in the air at the same time. Every flight with a hot air balloon is unique since you fly where the wind takes you which makes the experience extra special and cool. The experience ends with a little celebration and thereafter they bring you back to your accommodation.
Cappadocia was my dream come true. The air ballon is amazing, more than what we expected. Pick up time was as promised and the whole journey was incredible. I have no words to describe it. Ahmed has been incredibly helpful and always taking the extra mile in every aspect. My husband and I want to go back some time soon and we will be doing another air ballon with Tubos Travel, for sure! 100%recommended!!
Amazing experience. The driver was dot on time in the hotel, to pick- up us. Reached the spot where 100s of balloons were being prepared for take- off. Upon reaching the spot (big ground), hot tea and coffee were served to warm up. We could see the preparation of inflating balloon. The passengers were loaded in the basket which is divided into compartments so no mixing of people will take place. Safety guidelines (like airplane) were handed over to passengers to understand what to do in case of emergency. Little bit different from aircraft evacuation process. A staff from balloon co. clicked pictures of passengers whoever requested. The flight took off dot on time and flight time was also min. 60 minutes. The pilot showed his different skills of taking balloon high and often close to the grounds almost touching the trees. The balloon veered from mountains to the city scape. The landing was amazing which involves lot of team work and precision (felt as if a fighter jet was landing on naval ship). The pilot used camera on both sides of the balloon basket for 360 degree pictures being sold at a cost of 30 USD. The successful landing was celebrated with claps while the pilot opened the cork of sparkling champagne looking drink enjoyed by all. Certificate of flight was handed over to all passengers (of course without passenger's name but with pilot's name). The crew team wound up the balloon and other supporting equipment which itself was amazing to watch. No room of error noticed and everything was precisioned to the minutest level. I will award 10 out of 10 marks. Group photo of all passengers could have been clicked by the balloon co. for their records.
One of the best things to do in Cappadocia and highlight of our trip! The early morning sunrise view of all balloons launching is magical!
It was SO lucky that we found Ahmet and Tubos Travel for our trip to Cappadocia. Due to the extremely high prices during peak season of hot air balloon rides, my friends and I decided that we would not ride a balloon during our trip. We found Ahmet just two days before we arrived in Cappadocia and he was able to get us tickets on a hot air balloon ride SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than any other options I had found through Airbnb, TripAdvisor, or google. He also went above and beyond to make sure we had a great ride. He showed up at 5am to make sure we got a corner spot on the balloon so that our group would have the best views. The balloon flight was over the most popular valley in Cappadocia, not one of the smaller valleys with fewer balloons. We all had an incredible experience and I will recommend Tubos Travel to all of my family and friends traveling to Cappadocia in the future!
Magical experience in the hot air balloon. The views are amazing. Ahmet was very helpful in organizing all our tours in Cappadocia. Would highly recommend booking through Tubos Travel.
We had a magical experience of the hot air balloon flight. Booked it with Ahmet and everything went as per plan. Lovely memories to take back!
It was the most magical experience with amazing views. We also did a private tour of the Capadocia highlights and Ahmet was amazing with organising.
One of the best experiences of our life! Your team was amazing and the view unbelievable! Thank you!
A long time dream cone true. It completely lived up to my expectations. Ahmet was so easy to deal with my booking. And always answered my silly questions very quickly. He was very helpful and polite. I would recommend to book through him to anyone.
We had an amazing time. We were picked up on time. We were only there about 15 minutes before we were loaded into the basket. We had enough room unlike with other organizations I heard it was quite crowded. Unless you were going to rent a private balloon, you are going to have people next to you. So you have to be realistic. we were back at our hotel and eating breakfast a little bit after 8 o’clock. I would definitely recommend this outfit. I read so many reviews where there were problems and we had none. The views over the fairy chimneys are unreal. It was the best balloon ride we’ve ever had in our life.
This is a once in a lifetime experience that you should try when in Cappadocia ! The view was so stunning. Also Ahmed from Tubos Travel was very helpful regarding all my enquiries. I asked many things and he answered me promptly. I honestly recommend him for everyone to use his service . As I am also a travel agent in Indonesia , I wish that we can work together in future .
It was a truly unique experience, our driver Tahir was outstanding. He involved us with his enthusiasm and his skill throughout the flight .. I recommend of course to do this experience if you go to Cappadocia, you will remain in the heart trust
It was the best balloon flight I've ever experienced with experienced staff. I can say that they created a real visual feast for photographer friends like me. Thank you to the friendly team. I hope we see this team again in the blue.
It was a fantastic experience. It exceeded all my expectations. They came for us to the hotel very punctual. They took us to the place to take off the balloon. We saw how they inflated it. It was in the early morning. We saw many balloons take off. They welcomed us with coffee and snacks. Afterwards we climbed into the balloon and were given safety instructions. Very professional pilots. The extraordinary views of Cappadocia and seeing how we were flying among so many balloons. There are few words to describe it. Very controlled landing. Upon arrival we were welcomed with a toast of champagne. Everything excellent. Very friendly staff. I recommend them 100 percent. I would gladly repeat this experience. Ahmet assisted us and provided follow-up and communication at all times, very friendly and professional.
Unforgettable experience. Everything OK. Organized. Ahmed helpful and professional. We also booked quads with them in the red valley at sunset (beautiful). Super recommended They keep you updated via WhatsApp message
Everything was great! Organization, pickup and flight. They adapted to us whenever they could. If I did it again, I would definitely repeat it.
