Balloon Rides in Cappadocia

Cappadocia is almost like visiting another planet to Cappadocia. The landforms are so unique that, until you see them with your own eyes, it is hard to believe they really exist. If you want to visit a place like entering a different world, put Cappadocia on your list of places to visit. Three days is the perfect time in Cappadocia. Three days allow you to see all the big sites, go for a little walk, explore some caves, and even go for a hot air balloon ride if your heart wants.

A lot of hot air balloon tours are available to choose from. In terms of flight length, balloon capacity, and cost, the one you want will depend on your personal preferences. Tour businesses are offering a few options to meet your needs. Standard flights carry more people and do not last as long, but are more expensive. Although deluxe flights are more expensive, they carry fewer people and stay longer in the air. For special occasions, most companies also offer private tours. 

Flights can last from 45 minutes to two hours anywhere. It depends on who you're booking your tour and which flight you're choosing. Standard Flight, for example, lasts 45 to 65 minutes, while its deluxe flight lasts 1.5 hours. The basket capacity again depends on the company and the flight. Classic Flight carries between 20 and 24 people while carrying between 12 and 16 people. BEYOND Flight can carry a total of 12 passengers for 3 people per compartment. 

Deluxe and private flights cost much more than conventional or classic flights. Classic Flight costs about $185 per person, their Comfort Flight $208 and their Deluxe Flights about $254 per basket. Hot air balloon flights depend on the weather and can be cancelled. In that case, you will be offered a full refund or helped by many companies. Plan to spend a couple of days in Cappadocia so if that happens to you, you can rebook.
