A wonderful snowy surprise! - We were greeted with snow and didn’t get to do the balloon ride. Despite the change in weather, we still had an amazing time! Our guide Mustafa is the best, very patient, knowledgeable and he was very attentive to all details. He took us to amazing spots to see and take pictures. The last restaurant was superb! Hanimeli it’s called. We will be back one day for the balloons! Thank you Mustafa for making our trip memorable. Viator is always on top of things, kept us very informed the whole time.

Fairy chimneys : Cappadocia! - This is the best tour I have ever had. This tour had everything very coordinated well. The details were told to us before time and everything was very comfortable. The tour guide was the best with so much knowledge and the best behaviour. The travel agent also communicated everything well and helped through WhatsApp always. The pick-up services were all good and on time. We visited so many places in Cappadocia Even though I just thought this is a place for hot air balloons it had loads of other things to do. I will again book more tickets through trip advisor. Thank you for all the help.

Very knowledgeable and... - Very knowledgeable and enlightening guide. Set a comfortable pace with time to "take in" the multitudes of historical and geological information. The hot air balloon ride was awesome! We were glad we had a chance to visit Cappadocia and partake in the culture and beauty first hand.

Great 2 day tour, lovely hotel, friendly guides and a magical balloon ride - Everything worked like clockwork, pick up and drop offs were on time and comfortable. Our hotel was as advertised, a lovely setting with luxurious rooms. On the two day tour our guides Mustapha and Elo were welcoming, friendly and very knowledgeable. The balloon ride was just magical- I could say no more

Beautiful Excursion! - Fantastic escapade from Istanbul! Ilayda was our guide; good info and great personality. The hotel was cute and comfortable. The underground city the open air museum made nice photo ops, but the balloon ride was definitely the star of the trip. The whole ride is beautiful; it doesn't disappoint!! The office communication with the travel info is very lax, so be extremely patient if you have questions. (lax: One couple got their plane tickets emailed to them while they were at the airport waiting to depart) Even still, it was a memorable adventure.

Amazing experience! - This trip was amazing in one word. Everything was well planned and executed to detail! We stayed at the Zeydem Cave Hotel and staff were very friendly. Everything was handled down to the details and we were also picked up from the hotel for the balloon tour. The whole experience was amazing and I can only recommend it! Everyone from the tour guides to the balloon tour company was amazing!

Wow - Once in a lifetime experience - 5 star hotel - very interesting architecture & dinner was delicious. We heard this was one of the nicer properties. Balloon ride was worth getting up at 4am - amazing. Note - balloons fly depending on weather, so we got lucky. Tours were half ancient ruins/geological formations & half high-end shopping. CAUTION - if you purchase something you will NOT get a VAT refund unless you have done your homework & the establishment gives you the proper paperwork to turn in!!! We lost out on ~ $250. Be ready to cat nap or skip sleeping as this is a go-go tour, but a once in a lifetime experience. Also in order to climb all over the ruins & geological formations, you need to be in shape. The Viator logistics are fine-tuned and tight. If everyone is ready on time, Viator will get you where you need to be. I was VERY impressed with the drivers who managed to squeeze through all those narrow alleys.

A disgrace - The most memorable part it was myself and my friend waiting in vain for the coach to pick us up at 4am in front of the hotel. No one ever bothered from the agency to tell us that the whole trip was canceled!
