Hot air ballooning holiday in Cappadocia

How this holiday makes a difference

Ballooning is a clean sport, and the burners in an hot air balloon generally run on propane. They do emit some pollutants, including carbon dioxide, but the quantity is negligible and virtually zero when compared to cars, motor boats, coaches etc.

We only work with locally owned family hotels. We use the services of local tour guides and drivers, and crucially, by keeping our group numbers small, we reduce our impact on the community and the environment.

Our land tours do use motorised transport but our main focus is on walking tours and nature trails, which are the best ways to experience the Cappadocia landscape.

Story of the holiday provider

Serkan studied Drama at Bristol University then worked as a film maker in Soho, London, but his love of his home country, Turkey, led him to set up a tour company. His itineraries combine extraordinary experiences in weird and wonderful places along with the traditional highlights. Serkan hand-picks local guides for their genuine respect, personality and charisma, who don’t just regurgitate information from textbooks. He believes that the incredible hospitality, curiosity and warmth of the people, as well as the landscapes and history, are what make Turkey so special. These ambient holidays offer an opportunity to see the country through the eyes of a local.

Most memorable? Definitely the balloon flight. Seeing the landscape from above is like seeing it for the first time again... The hotel, tours and balloon flights were all local outfits, no multinationals... Really enjoyed it, despite variable weather (early April). (read full review)

The guided hikes were good for informational purposes, but exploring the ravines, caves, mountains, etc. with our two children (ages 8 and 10) was the highlight of the trip.(read full review)
