Hot-air Balloon Tours

Price from £195 per person

Cappadocia is known around the world as one of the best places to fly with hot-air balloons. The spectacular surrealistic landscape, combined with excellent flying conditions, allows the balloons to gently drift over and between fairy chimneys and pigeon houses hewn from the unique rock formations, through beautiful orchards and vineyards and impressive valleys with distinctive rock formations and features – and then float up over rippled ravines for breath-taking views across the region.

Standard Deluxe VIP

STANDARD (SHORT) HOT-AIR BALLOON TOUR (1 hour)

The Short Balloon Tour offers a minimum of 1 hour in the air. After having a light early morning breakfast you will be collected from your hotel, usually before sunrise, and taken to your launch site to witness the preparation and inflation of the balloon. You will then receive a passenger briefing to explain the basic rules and safety measures for the balloon flight.

Then it’s time to climb into the basket as the highlight of your Turkey holiday begins! Take-off is gentle - soon you’ll be taking hundreds of pictures over the valleys of Cappadocia. Upon landing, there is a small celebration with a champagne toast and presentation of your flight certificate. You will be driven back to your hotel around 08:30am just in time to have another breakfast, set off on a daily tour or enjoy a well-deserved nap.

Please note; all passengers must be over 8 years old and must be taller than 1 metre.

DELUXE (LONG) HOT AIR BALLOONING TOURS (1.5 hours)

The Deluxe Balloon Tour offers a minimum of 1.5 hours flight time. For people who are interested in photography and aviation, the deluxe tour is the perfect choice. The main difference between the deluxe and standard flights is that the deluxe has a longer flight time and also a smaller capacity - guests fly in smaller baskets, usually between 6 and 10 people.

VIP HOT-AIR BALLOONING TOURS

What better way to celebrate that special occasion, be it an anniversary, birthday, wedding or any other important event, than by enjoying a balloon flight for two in a small balloon. Our VIP balloons are different from the other passenger balloons flying in Cappadocia – there is only room for the pilot and two passengers in the basket, so your flight is a very personal experience which can be tailored just for you and your partner.

The VIP flight offers all VIP services such as a private transfers to and from your hotel to the launch site, special drinks and refreshments at the launch site whilst the balloon is being inflated, a gentle balloon flight for two people, champagne and refreshments upon landing. You will also receive souvenirs of the flight and personalized flight certificates.

"I wanted to send you an e-mail now that we are back from our wonderful holiday. My wife and I wanted to express our sincere gratitude to you and the team at Diamond Star for arranging a truly unique style of holiday that we are still talking about to friends and family two weeks after we came home. The places we have visited, and the things we have seen were truly amazing, it will take a month or more to sort through our photos" Andrew and June Welch - 24 Oct 2022

"Back from our holiday to Istanbul/Cappadocia what an awesome holiday. The hot air balloon was out of this world. Thank you Diamond Star for making it all possible special thanks to Nazan. I recommend this company to make your dreams come true." Mrs Angela Bailey - 6 Oct 2022

"We arrived home from Fethiye on Monday, and would just like to thank you and Akin for planning an amazing trip. The gulet was fantastic and as usual, the Ece Saray Hotel was lovely. The staff there are some of the best we have come across, and the breakfasts were great. We are looking ahead to 2023 and were wondering if you could arrange a quote for a similar trip." Sue and Mike Fedeczko - 28 September 2022
