Flights are scheduled daily (weather permitting) for
sunrise (approximately 5:15 am ) and return to your

included in the service.
Pre-Flight: An
informative pre-flight briefing by your FAA
Certified Commercial Pilot. All of our pilots and
balloons are fully certified by the Federal Aviation
Administration.
Inflation: You can
actually participate in the exciting inflation
process, or just watch the multi-colored balloon
unfold a world of color around you. Before you
realize it, the pilot stands the balloon up and you
board the hand-crafted wicker basket.
Takeoff: The
lift-off and ascent is so gentle many people do not
realize they have left the loving arms of mother
earth. As you become one with the wind, you lose
sensation of motion and perception of heights. You
begin to feel the peacefulness and tranquility of
ballooning.
Landing: Your pilot
will look for a spot near a farm, where there will
be thrilled people to help you celebrate your
“arrival”. After landing the pilot and crew will
pack up the balloon and return to the launch site
for the post flight celebration. The tradition of
celebrating the flight began in the early 1700's
upon landing, the first balloons were feared as evil
spirits, and attacked by the local villagers and
farmers. A later balloonist presented a letter from
the King and a bottle of champagne as evidence of
their Earthly origins, and so continues today, the
tradition of champagne as a gesture of friendliness
and good times.
Transfer: Our crew
will transfer you back to your accommodation.
We are using only Cappadocia (Kapadokya) Balloon, Ez
Air, Anatolian Balloons and Goreme Balloon. These are the most popular,
safety and cheap balloon companies at Cappadocia. |
