Terrible service, unpredictable as to whether they will show up or let u know in plenty of time of cancellation. Never book book this balloon ride you could be very disappointed.”

Ercan told interesting stories and facts about the place, showed the group around but also left enough time for everybody to explore parts of Pamukkale on their own. On our way back Ercan created a playlist with the group‘s favorite songs - very nice idea! Thank you!”

“Magnifique moment ! Permet de voir Pamukkale vu du ciel. Pas de secousse, c’est très doux, seulement ce n’est pas pour ceux qui ont le vertige. Comptez une bonne heure dans les airs. La montgolfière sait d’où elle part mais pas où elle va atterrir. Mais atterrissage directement sur la remorque tout en délicatesse. Équipe au top. Taxi très ponctuel et organisatrice par messages très sympa. Petit pot sans alcool à la fin du vol et remise des certificat.”
