Ballooning is a fun activity for those who are not quite adrenaline junkies. This is for tourists mostly. Cappadocia gives ballooning a different dimension. If you are looking forward to exploring the skies, this is your chance. Here’s a brief description of Kevin Blake’s experience. Even before I get into the intricate details of ballooning, let’s talk about the costs. Kevin booked a balloon trip for only 210 Euros along with a 5:30 ish pick up to the spot from his hotel. The Kapadokya balloons do a pretty good job of flight seeing. There are other balloon tour operators as well. The most unique thing about this ‘sport’ or mode of transportation, is the fact that you don’t feel the motion. Basically, you look around from the safety net of the basket. Cold air is used to inflate the balloons a little bit. Hot air makes this balloons go up. The balloons can travel at an average height of 15000 feet. I think that’s pretty high. With Cappadocia nestled between the cities of cities of Nevsehir, Kayseri and Nigde, the views from 15000 feet are fabulous. The valleys down below and the deep canyons are what makes the flight worth it. The tranquility you experience is great. Kevin calls it a ‘brilliant experience’. So, come and experience it for yourself. Image Credit: Kapadokyaballoons
