Absolutely unforgettable horseback riding experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming, professional, and attentive. They made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable, whether it was your first time riding or you had experience. The horses were well cared for, gentle, and responsive — clearly loved and trained with care. The trail was stunning, offering breathtaking views and a peaceful escape into nature. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and made the ride both fun and educational. Their passion for horses truly shines through. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and enjoyable horseback riding adventure. I can’t wait to come back!

Excellent one hour flight with Discovery Balloons. Timely pickup at the hotel and nice breakfast at their office. Slight delay (not at sunrise) due to high winds, but a very smooth ride with pilot Ibrahim, going both to the tree tops and to above 300m over the Cappadocia landscape. A recommended experience for everyone that doesn't have mobility problems (a small climb to the basket is required to board)

Breakfast could be better but other than that it is a really worth it the smoothest ride - I am scared of heights but this felt super secure both in take off and landing. They also played music which was a nice touch. Tip for the best photos be the last in your section to have the border.

Well organised, Hakan was really good with the horses and they were very well tempered. Took pictures with my phone and there were more than enough handlers in case although it wasn’t needed.
