Kapadokya’daki ilk balon firması olması nedeniyle gerçekten tecrübeliler ve inanılmaz güvenli balon uçuları yapıyorlar. Güvenli uçuşla ilgili kesinlikle kaygınız olmadan tercih edebilirsiniz. Tavsiye ediyorum

Sin palabras. De verdad que no puedo describir las sensaciones que experimenté, viendo amanecer desde el globo, volando sobre Capadocia. No se pueden transmitir ni los olores, ni los sentimientos, ni siquiera podemos captar bien la luz... Una experiencia recomendable al 100% La tripulación del globo, perfecta. Apenas notamos nada cuando despegamos y cuando aterrizamos. Simpáticos y de buen rollo. Volvería sin dudarlo, no importa el madrugón. Vale la pena el dinero que cuesta, de verdad.

Magical winter experience. It was freezing, but the Ezair crew was warm and welcoming. The landing was so smooth I didn't even feel it. The champagne toast at the end was a lovely touch.

Our pilot was a pro! He rotated the balloon constantly so everyone got a 360-degree view. The landing on the trailer was impressive to watch.
