- nileshk6110 contributionsWorst experienceThe balloon ride in Cappadocia is over-hyped, dont fall for the trap of paying a high amount specially during cancellations during previous days. I dont recommend ballon rides rather spend time/money for cave hotels, atv bikes and green tour.Written 17 September 2024
- ediwibowo0 contributionsBallon cappadocia HOGI Grouppick up at hotel on time with good car. The flight is not in Göreme but in my opinion it is safer because there are not too many balloons, making it easier to explore the Cappadocia Valley, safe balloon landings and professional pilots and staff.Written 3 October 2023

The guides were very knowledgeable and gave us accurate information and enough time at each attraction without hurrying us up.

- thebouzcris0 contributionsProfessional, friendly and worth your money.My husband and I were really looking forward to experiencing the famous Cappadocia Hit air balloon ride. After talking to many agencies that were quoting us high prices we found “Up Balloon Agency” online. They gave us a great and fair price for the month of November being low season. They were very quick to reply to all our questions at any time of the day and went above and beyond to make this whole adventure a memorable one. Very professional and I recommend anyone to go through them for any activities.Written 11 November 2022
- 744nilsug0 contributionsBaloon ridaWow, what an experience to do in Cappadocia. Everything was so organized and smooth. We made our hot air balloon reservation on up balloon's website, and the agency came back to us immediately in a professional manner. We also took the horseback riding tour from this agency, and it was also great. Thank you Up Balloon! Looking forward to next time.Written 27 October 2022
- 76damlay0 contributionsUnforgettable experience! <3We had an incredible hot air balloon ride experience with Up Balloon Agency. It was a spectacular experience from start to finish. Even though the weather was inconvenient for takeoff on our first booked day, our flight got canceled. Baris helped us quickly to make us fly on the next available day. So the company's communication and problem-solving speed were incredible. We enjoyed the service we got. It was worth every penny!Written 25 October 2022
- kelebakk0 contributionsAmazing balloon experienceBefore we came to Cappadocia, I wanted to arrange everything beforehand to not deal with any problems during our holiday with my girlfriend, and I came across Up Balloon, so luckily. Baris's straightforward communication and helpful attitude made me trust these guys. Let me help you save some time while you search for an appropriate balloon agency, Up balloon is the best company for hot air balloon in Cappadocia. Top!Written 12 October 2022
- 532ozanh0 contributionsCaptivating ExperienceEveryone visiting Cappadocia should consider taking a hot air balloon ride with Up Balloon Agency. Not only was the company itself incredibly professional, but the tour itself was beautiful and captivating. Thank you, Baris for being so approachable and kind always. I would recommend this company to anyone without hesitation. 10/10.Written 10 October 2022
- ak_lay_20220 contributionsGreat ExperienceIt was a great experience and people in the team was so helpful and professional. Prices are quite affordable and customer service was superb. The communication with organizers was very smooth. I totally recommend the hot air balloon activity to everyone who are curious for Cappadicia.Written 5 October 2022
- 756busras0 contributionsLike a dreamWhat a terrific tour! This is one of my life's most fulfilling experiences, and I am glad we did it with this company. Their rates were much more affordable than other companies in Cappadocia, and the services were great, like breakfast and champagne celebration. The only negative thing that I can say is the weather was cloudy a little on our flight day, but everything was smooth and professional as it's described 👍Written 4 October 2022
- P4976OLjonathanp0 contributionsHelpful and QuickWe were anxiously searching for an available balloon flight (we left it rather late to look - so if you are planning on booking a balloon flight, do not delay). We contacted several providers of which 2 responded, the first one 15 minutes before Baris replied and thinking our options were limited, we took the first one. While therefore I did not book with this company this time, I was impressed by their speed of service and their price and their polite and helpful manner. If we go back, we will try this company.Written 4 October 2022

- dlauretta910 contributionsGreat experience!Day started at 09:30, with pick up right on time We were greeted by our guide, Serpil who was really friendly and patient with us throughout the day. She explained everything clearly and in detail and managed to keep the day interesting. We made our way to Uchisar Castle and after an explanation of how the Fairy Chimneys formed we had some time for photos. We then visited Monks Valley, followed by Imagination Valley. Made a stop at Alaaddin Ceramics in Avanos where the owners and workers explained the process involved in making ceramics and we had some time to shop. This was followed by a buffet lunch at Han restaurant. We then made a stop at a Panoramic viewpoint of love valley before our final stop at Goreme Open Air Museum. At each stop Serpil took time to give some info followed by free time to explore and take photos. Would definitely recommend!Written 22 September 2022

The hot air balloon ride with this company Affordable Hot Air Balloon Ride Over Cat Valley was a very nice experience for me and my friend. They picked us up from the hotel on time and picked the other clients along the way going to the area where they have the hot air balloon. The staff and crew are very friendly and nice and provided us with all the in-flight instructions. As soon as we landed after one hour of flying on a hot air balloon, they finished up with a celebratory bottle of sparkling wine for all the clients and provided us a flight certificate. This experience is very nice and will do it again with this company on my next visit to this place.

My friends and I got an excellent hot air balloon ride over Cat Valley with Up Balloon Agency. They constantly keep us informed about every change and detail we may encounter. Baris was especially very helpful and prepared us for the ride well. They took us from the hotel at 6.10 am and headed to Cat Valley. The flight took around 60 minutes. The captain was so cool and informative during the flight, his control over the balloon made us confident and relieved. We got a flight certificate and champagne (no alcohol) after we landed. It's a beautiful experience everyone should get at least once in Cappadocia.

This balloon tour is absolutely fantastic! As my first ever experience riding a hot air balloon, I am super happy that I did it with Up Balloon, as their service created a fantastic atmosphere, allowing the true appreciation of the natural beauty of Cappadocia. The experience was not only visually enriching, but also intellectually enriching, as the fantastic tour guide explained the history of Cappadocia and its surroundings. I 10/10 recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys a relaxing view and I hope to come back some day!

Cat Valley (Cat vadisi) is about an hour from Göreme, where all the other 150 hot air balloons take off.
We were taken to a field and a whole 3 balloons took off. Instead of the booked 40 - 70 minutes we landed again after 20 minutes, as we had started much too late. There's nothing to see in Cat Valley. The experience was pure disappointment. The operator Pegas Ballons also told us about nothing beforehand.

Secret and Beautiful Hot Air Balloon Tour
This is a separate balloon ride, not flying with hundreds of other balloons. The price and service quality was superb and the flight was outstanding thanks to professional balloon captain. The experience was an absolute pleasure, but I will book another balloon ride from this company to experience seeing all balloons together in the sky.

Hey Yasin, thank you for leaving a review for Up Balloon. As you indicated, this balloon tour flies in a remote region called Cat Valley. That's why it is more affordable than the Cappadocia balloon tours, but we pay attention to keeping the service quality and the experience above superb! We are happy to see you had a great balloon ride experience, but if you want to experience flying with hundreds of other balloons altogether next time, please get in touch with us for our "Cappadocia Exclusive Hot Air Balloon Ride with Pick-up & Drop-Off" tour. With kind regards.

We scheduled our hot air balloon ride for the first day we spent in Cappadocia in hopes we’d be able to go in the air. Our hot air balloon went up that day (which happened to be our exact 10 year anniversary date) so we felt very lucky. The balloons in Göreme did not fly that day or the following (unsure of the reasoning). There was only one other balloon in the air with us which was a little bit sad but we knew this location doesn’t have a ton like the Göreme location. We were overall satisfied with our experience. Smaller there were about 12 people in total in our basket and we had a soft landing. Our pilot did a great job!

Lovely experience, starting before sunrise, flying over Cappodocia valleys and then landing after sunrise. Hot air balloon ride was an item in my bucket list and I was glad I could do it in Turkey. We flew higher than the other balloons! We could spot a fox in the valleys and guarding dogs barking beneath, at the hot air balloons. The landing was a little rough, but it was okay. It was an hour ride

We already went Montgolfier 7 years ago in Göreme with my partner and we were impressed by the experience and we wanted to bring this magical moment to the whole family but unfortunately this time the flight only lasted 30 min, the balloon did not gain altitude and Cat Valley is really without internet!, for the price of €750 this experience was a total disappointment for the whole family. I absolutely do NOT recommend!!

I am so happy we did a hot air balloon tour with the Up Balloon agency. Everything was like a fairy tale, they picked us up around 4.30 am from our hotel way to the take-off region. We got many incredible pictures even from above clouds that will remind us Cappadocia is a magical place. Communication was straightforward, and the experience was superb! At least one time you must do in your life, heartily recommend.

Hello Mouez, thank you for showing your kindness in leaving a review for Up Balloon Agency.
We realized you had chosen our Cat Valley hot air balloon ride to leave such a kind review for your Cappadocia Hot Air Balloon experience. Our "Marvelous Hot Air Ballon Ride Over Cat Valley with Hotel Pick-up & Drop-Off" tour is operating in a remote area called Cat Valley, flying with six hot air balloons together with great harmony in peace.
Because this is not exactly the same experience as being in the sky with hundreds of other hot air balloons in Göreme, its price is more affordable than the Cappadocia Hot Air Balloon tours. Still, the service quality is the same for both.
We are so happy to see you got enjoyed it. We would be cheerful to host you again in Cappadocia soon. Cheers!

Thank you for providing a complete balloon service, as you promised. The agency is so approachable when we need them. They answered all our questions patiently and convinced me about the ride quality even at the beginning. The balloon is not flying with all other balloons but they did not mislead us regarding that fact. I paid for the hot air balloon experience and quality service and get what I paid for.
