I was anxious thinking about going up in a hot air balloon as I am afraid of heights but the professionalism and sheer beauty of all that was around me led to one of the most amazing adventures of my life time! It was beyond amazing with special thanks to Pilot Nuri Kose and his dedicated crew.

Hi to all. We flew on 18 May 2013 with Urgup Balloons and it was a fabulous experience. Into the light of the recent balloon accident in Capadocia I now understand the quality of our pilot Umit Arig. When two balloons are positioned on the same vertical line, the one at the lowest altitudine might know nothing about that because... More

My partner and I have just experienced a wonderful balloon ride over Goreme, Turkey. Our pilot Umit Arig took us through safety procedures and then made us practice a safe landing position not just once but three times. Very professional individual. The spectacle was enhanced with good geographical information from the pilot. All in all a great time.

Our pilot was Syet and he was smooth and professional. What made this balloon ride so special was the view of Rose Valley and Goreme Open Air Museum. Our flight lasted 1 hour and 15 minutes and we enjoyed every bit of it. Here's what to expect if you plan to go: they'll pick you up at 4:45 AM and... More

We ride by this company that I recommend. Everything happened in a memorable way. We had a Portuguese driver (Joao) I recommend, because he served us very well and was very friendly on our tour. The vision offered at dawn tuo is good. To ride of balloon is very good and Cappadocia is impossible to visit and not strolling balloon.... More

Amazing experience, our first balloon flight! My partner and I were completely relaxed and felt safe and in good hands. The pilot was really experienced and told us about the places we flew over. The sight and views are awesome. Weather conditions were absolutely right. We were able to take the most amazing photos. Absolutely recommend that any visitor to... More

Firstly we received terrible customer service. There was no communication from the staff and absolutely no information given to us about our flight. We were picked up from our hotel at 4.30am and driven to a restaurant in the middle of nowhere outside Goreme for breakfast which unlike the location was ok. After breakfast we were then driven back through... More

The flight was good BUT ... We paid for the 100 minute Deluxe Flight but were airborne for only 69 minutes. They landed early as they had scheduled a second flight for our balloon that morning. They (politely) responded to our emailed complaint with the claim we were airborne for 90 minutes, but the time stamps on both mine and... More
