Hot air ballooning Cappadocia

We began our day at 330 am and went hot air ballooning with 99 other balloons over cappadocia - truly beautiful to watch the sunrise over this incredible place. So incredible as we went low over the fairy chimneys and volcanic landscape and high near the hills to see the sunrise.
The balloons go up each morning, year round, with May and September being the busiest. During these times they also send another 60 balloons up 30 minutes after the first round. Each basket holds 25 people and two staff, a captain and communicator. We were up in the air for one hour. The balloons themselves are made in silk factory in türkiye and last, if well cared for, for 15 years. The balloons are checked each day for safety. When we landed on the ground, a truck with trailer reversed up, the balloon was up in air again and then we landed in the trailer!!!! It was quite the experience.もっと詳しく
