Cappadocia's unique
environment provides excellent conditions for quality balloon flights.
Due to the microclimate and the extraordinary formations in the landscape,
you have the opportunity to fly low amongst the fascinating topography,
sometimes even picking fruit from tree-tops. Every flight is a fantastic
adventure as you float majestically over this extraordinary landscape.
Without doubt this is some of the best hot air ballooning in the world.
These flights are conducted
for Journey Anatolia by the legendary Kapadokya Balloons Co. With
an highly experienced and professional team of staff dedicated
to ballooning, they combine technical skills, geographical knowledge
and good humour for a safe and memorable experience for everyone.

Hot
Air Ballooning
in Cappadocia and the Environment
The
burners in an hot air balloon generally run on propane. They emit
some pollutants, including carbon dioxide. However, the amount of
pollutants emitted by balloon burners is small compared to cars,
motor boats, coaches etc. In the big picture hot air balloons have
a very small effect on the environment.
