Cappadocia trip

#turkey #mountainview #localguides During the three days I spent in Cappadocia, I had the opportunity to take a hot air balloon trip, visit a historical destinations, and even go on a short hike through narrow caves. This region of Turkey is full of diverse locations that make for great views and photos. There are cave churches built hundreds of years ago and landscapes that make you feel more like you are on the moon. If you love hiking, there are a ton of trails you can hike in the area as well. If you aren’t up for hiking, you can take bus tours or rent a car to make your own itinerary in order to minimize the amount you hike. Many people come to Cappadocia to see the sunrise from a hot air balloon. If you are one of them, then this information is for you. You can order such a trip at any hotel where you are staying. The balloons usually take off around 5:00 – 5:30 a.m. That’s why you get up early, get to the location to watch them, and then you wait. Remember it is cold even in June in the morning, so make sure to take layers! You will wait and wait and wait... and watch the balloons blow and then fly away. However, they don’t take off until closer to 6:00 or 6:15 am. If they don’t take off right away, don’t give up on them! It’s worth the wait and the early morning. At the end of this trip you will be offered champagne for which you will have to pay 😁.
