Review of Cappadocia’s sunrise balloon flight, with fairy chimneys, hotel transfers, snacks, champagne, certificates, price, and practical tips.

“Excellent experience! Very organized from picking us up, going for breakfast, taking us to the field and back from our respective hotels. Their communication also is very reachable. You can message them 24/7 for any concerns you have. We had ours changed last minute and they still picked us up on our hotel. Very on time. Definitely can recommend this balloon operator. Thank you Discovery!”

9.Cappadocia: Soganli Valley Hot Air Balloon Tour at Sunrise

★︎★︎★︎★︎★︎★︎★︎★︎★︎★︎4.6 · 512 reviews · 3 hours · from $142

Float over Cappadocia’s quieter Soganli Valley at sunrise, with hotel transfers, breakfast, a one-hour flight, and fewer balloons for $142.

“The experience was out of this world! Soganli Valley is well worth it! Miscommunication regarding pickup time though; I was told it'd be 6:55 when it was earlier and the driver had to come back again to pick me up, found it strange that he did not call. Not such a big deal though, since the flight itself was magical! For those wondering, non alcoholic champagne is provided, mixed with delicious juice. I think it'd be a nice touch to have the name of the passenger on the flight certificate.”

“This activity was worth every single penny. If you are looking to tick off an item from your bucket list, this is the company to use. This was my first time on a hot air balloon and it couldn’t have gone any better for me. The pilot was very skilled and friendly. The ride was incredibly smooth it almost didn’t feel like I was so high up. There were moments where the balloon dips and goes back up and even that was so smooth. The pick up from my hotel was on time, the take off was on time. The time between drop off and take off was really short…”
