WHAT IS BALLOONING?


The setting for some of nature's most bizarre wonders, the region known as Cappadocia where the land has been shaped into fantastic forms-"fairy chimneys" that do seem haunted, and cities and houses of worship that extend many meters deep into the earth-all of them enveloped in an athmosphere that is etheral and unworldly....

Cappadocia is a land of extreme beauty, combining a unique and beautiful nature with a fascinating cultural and historical past. Hittites, Byzantines and early Christians established important landmarks here.

The deep canyons and lush fertile valleys provide balloons with an ideal playground for a unique and memorable flight, gentle winds carry visitors over places that could never be reached except by balloon.

In recent years the balloon tours become more popular in Cappadocia. Besides fun, the beauty of environment is just breathtaking. It's a kind of symbol of Cappadocia as well. There is no better way to see the Cappadocia than by a gentle, free-floating balloon flight over the unique rock formations (called as fairy chimneys), valleys and vineyards. You'll see the layout of the wine country and you may even pick some of the places you wish to visit later.
