Ballooning in Cappadocia
|
See all Cappadocia from a balloon is a unique and inexpressible experience. Sure it's a bit expensive, as about 150 euros, but very enjoyable.
The travel plan is as follows: Get up early enough, just 5:30 in the morning, soon to be in the area where you are going to fly; This is because the balloons can only fly early in the morning to avoid air currents are stronger than most fashion afternoon.
The capacity of each basket balloon but fall depends at least 8 and up to 18 or 20 people. Once in place (6:00 am) we offer a breakfast outdoors with the sky still dark with a few folding tables as they unroll the balloon and begin to fill with hot air. It is nice to notice, as is filled with the air burners balloon begins lying along the floor.
Once the balloon filled up the basket. When the manager opens balloon burner starts to rise, gently and gradually, but fast enough. We flew about 700 or 800 meters. The climb as I said is mild but progressive at first may impress but then you get used and gives the feeling of being stranded in the basket in midair.
Burners, as you can hear the complete silence in midair and when, about 500 meters high and begins to dawn off.
View sunrise from this point and as the sun begins to appear in all its glory. As the globe continues to rise slowly and now with enough sunlight you can see the amazing scenery and the whimsical shapes of the fireplace.
When you reach 700 or 800 meters remains at that point for a while and then goes down and approaching the craggy formation reach almost reach out and touch. We drove in the most popular areas of Cappadocia, across populations and valleys.
