I stayed at Heaven Cave Hotel during the trip and it was amazing. The rooms were cozy and everything was very comfortable and well organized.

Really nice to be in a real natural place. I recommend the Cappadocia in Turkey. It was almost what I wanted to see.

It was a nice chance visit the Cappadocia. Beuity of the landscape. I liked the Cappadocia. I have just spent there 2 days which was not enough, Turkey is so big and beautiful.

Even though the balloon flight was cancelled due to weather, the rest of the tour was fantastic. The sites and valleys were breathtaking, and the guide was great at explaining everything.

The hot air balloon flight was magical. Floating over Cappadocia’s valleys at sunrise was the highlight of my trip. The guide shared lots of interesting facts too.
