During your balloon flight, you will have the opportunity to experience flying at varied heights from tree-top level - where you will enjoy contour flying at low levels amongst the infamous ‘Fairy Chimneys’, and through the canyons and ancient valleys (for which the weather in Cappadocia is uniquely suited), to an average altitude of up to 2000 feet (600 meters): the perfect vantage point to experience the majesty and timeless beauty that is Cappadocia.
