Very good, nice, excellent. Very friendly captain of the balloon and his Team. Team photo for memory

I booked this tour through another site that did not have these revies available. I wish I had taken the time to find the reviews on trip advisor and I would not have booked this. First, there is no clear communication from him, so you really don't know what times you will be picked up, till you reach out. This company subcontracts the tours to other companies, so except for the balloon you will not get the complete experience. If you have the time, do it separte you will be better off. The baloon ride company was great, no issues with them. The group was also good., The second tourthat his company outsourced to, was also good, the group was lovely and diversed, which also made it a blast. The worst part, I didn't get to complete that tour with that group. I was split out during one of the stops (didn't get to say bye), and put in a Uber/taxi alone to another location to an ATV place and another group, whom I spent no time with. The group was also a group from India, I pretty much arrived when they were ready to leave. When i arrived I was asked if I wanted a driver, I said sure figured it would be a faster ride, but had no issues going on my own. From past experiences, that is how it goes. Not this time, We got 10 minutes in and at the first stop. a few minutes in a see two more people come to the group, and he is now litterally asking people (inexperienced and people who I don't know) to take me. Not at all discussing it with me. In this amount of time he could have asked me and brought another ATV for me to ride, instead of me ruining someone elses experience and my own as well. That person who I sat behind was pissed and i was totally embarrased. (also mind you she almost ran into people twice) . I was more pissed to find out that the person who was taking the ride from me was a non -paying friend of the tour guide, and the other firl was with the other tour guide of the group. It ruined my whole experiende. I called this tour operater, the next day. Frankly because I was pissed and didn't want to say the wrong thing. Defensive mode was an understatement, it was a lot of I should have called (in middle of an ATV ride, sure). I shouldn't have had a private driver it is an extra fee (but he asked, if he didn't want to he shouldn't have asked). He now has to contact them to get there side,(sure, he is going to say he brought a non paying person on a tour). Apparently, I should know a lot about this guy's business, when I didn't even know the times). I've written this off as a loss/donation , he might think he got away with something. Since it has been 2 days and I've heard nothing.

Excellent trip ,well worth the experience .The only down side was a Turkish Airlines cancellation of our flight meaning that we missed our balloon trip.

DO NOT BOOK THIS DISORGANIZED TOUR. worst excursion I’ve ever had. First know that this is a Viator tour so they supposedly send messages to you there (a different app) even though you buy here. Also it is three different companies so none of them know anything about the full day. You do get the itinerary the night before but I had to have my hotel call because it was terrible not knowing. Worst organized package ever. Our air balloon was broke so we had to wait for a second d and we’re last to go up. Finally we did a good fly over the city. The Red Tour I did not see in any communication so I had no idea. But we opted out so we could hire a private driver and see the caves. Honestly we just wanted a private tour and would have paid the original tour company but then they fought with my hotel people and were so unhelpful. Trying to just meet up to ATV later but they changed the time on us 3 times. Then The ATV people were the biggest joke. the car that picked me up even though I wanted to take a taxi scared me. It’s Far away in someone’s house and sketchy!! No way!!! Check photos. I left and took a taxi home. Why would I pay this much money for unprofessional and TERRIBLE DAY. Joke! My hotel Koza Cave did a great job trying to communicate and get clarity and even they said it was terrible.

The package is made by a company that subcontracts 3 companies for the overprice activities. The balloon activity was increíble as well as the red tour even do we started late. The organizers asked for our names, age (2 adults, 2 teens and a 10 year old) where given days before our package trip. They charged me in advance as 5 adults. When we got there, the teens couldn’t drive the ALV ( if they knew they where teens why didn’t say anything before charging me). I had to cancel the ALV and they did nothing to help me. Now I am waiting for the refund of the ALV that they said they where going to do.

There was no confirmation from trip advisor till 5:00 pm day before the trip I was not even sure if I will be picked up next day at ~4:00 pm, eventually after multiple time me calling the tour company I was confirmed 4:10 am pick up, which was on time but the ballon company was very disorganized they did not launch the balloon till well after sunrise, every other company around us was already up in the air, while we stood there waiting for it balloon to be ready. The balloon ride was the highlight of our trip to goreme, and that was ruined by a bad experience. The red tour was awesome so that part was good. The atv was the absolute worse very rude unprofessional guides, eventually when we came back we had to wait a good 30 plus minutes because our shuttle back was not there. So wet and tired we waited i the cold as it had rained during the atv tour and they tour operator had not even provided any rain cover other operators around us had all provided rain covers. Needless to say I would not recommend this $250 experience.

I recommend this tour for those who like me didn’t have much time to visit cappadocia. It’s very intense day but in my opinion very worth it. It’s an early start but the view and ride pays off the effort,absolutely stunning.the red tour was also very good and interesting as we had one of the best guides Özay who loves his job. Such an amazing and interesting person to listen and talk to. Very prepared and professional. The quod tour was also very nice and unlike many others the tour was long and fun. The guys were very kind and polite. Choose this tour if you like dynamic experiences.it’s a full day but in my opinion worth it. The timing and organization was excellent.

They cancel you once week before without any explanation!! Save yourself the headache and do not book this!!

The tour guide was very friendly and funny. Mustafa! Thank you so much. He was fasting and still was able to entertain and took care of us all day. The lunch was amazing

good value for money, convenient pick up from hotel, friendly staffs, although the tour did not provide much info during he valley tours, due to the limited time, if ou nned more talking tour, suggest you book the three - four days tour

Hot air balloon and the ATV tour were fantastic, we absolutely loved it. Also the guide for the red tour was highly knowledgeable and very nice

Pros: The morning balloon ride was nothing less than once in a lifetime spectacular. It is so good it alone is worth one hour flight from Istanbul. I forgot to bring a jacket and they were nice enough to lend me off of their own backs! The red tour guide (from I believe it’s called Pata travel agency) very helpful and a good conservationist. Unfortunately I had to miss the ATV ride due to airline canceling my flight and forcing me to take an earlier one. The red tour guide (I am so bad with names and I forget his (I’m sorry)) went out of his way to help me get back to the hotel in time to catch the ride to the airport. Cons: The balloon ride is packed full with 23 other people in the basket with you, so there is no room to move around. The red tour has two stops that are designed to pressure you into buying rugs and jewelry (I tell you American salesmen are puppies next to Turkish ones). However these are small things related to the overwhelming positives. Overall it cannot be rated anything less than 9/10.

This tour is done by Pupa Travel. Transportation, great! It was a new and comfortable ride with USB ports to charge your electronics. The guide was very helpful explaining every stop. The lunch was very good as well. But the best of the tour, it's that everything was included except for the souvenirs.
