The Tour from Belek to Cappadocia is not just a trip—it’s a journey into the heart of Turkey’s rich history and natural wonders.
Cappadocia feels like a journey into another world. The region’s landscape is adorned with striking rock formations, vast valleys, and natural marvels that draw visitors from around the globe. Millions of years ago, eruptions from volcanoes such as Erciyes, Hasan, and Gullu blanketed the land in volcanic ash, which gradually solidified into soft tuff rock. Over time, the forces of wind and rain sculpted these rocks into the iconic fairy chimneys, cliffs, and ridges that define the area today.
The scenery is reminiscent of the moon’s surface, and its beauty has long inspired artists, photographers, and adventurers. The landscape is painted in soft pinks, rich oranges, and earthy beiges, creating stunning views, particularly during sunrise and sunset.
One of the most magical ways to witness the charm of Cappadocia is from the sky. Each morning, as the sun begins to rise, colorful hot air balloons drift gracefully over the valleys and fairy chimneys. This mesmerizing sight offers an unforgettable experience, as you gently float above the breathtaking landscape, taking in views that will stay with you forever.
While Cappadocia’s landscapes are mesmerizing, the region also holds a deep historical significance. Nestled in the heart of Anatolia, it has been home to numerous civilizations throughout history, including the Hittites, Phrygians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans. Its strategic location along ancient trade routes made it a bustling cultural and commercial hub.
During the early days of Christianity, Cappadocia became a sanctuary. In the 2nd century AD, Christians fleeing Roman persecution sought refuge here, carving extensive underground cities into the soft rock. These subterranean cities, complete with living spaces, churches, storage rooms, and intricate ventilation systems, remain intact and open for exploration.
During the Byzantine era, the region saw the construction of castles and defensive structures. Uchisar Castle is one of the most prominent examples, once serving as a crucial military stronghold and offering panoramic views of the region.
Through the centuries, Cappadocia’s cultural heritage has been shaped by a variety of empires and civilizations. Today, visitors can explore ancient rock-hewn churches, monasteries, archaeological museums, and immerse themselves in the region’s incredible history while enjoying the stunning natural beauty.
Cappadocia is a destination where history, culture, and nature blend together in a truly magical way. Whether you’re floating above the fairy chimneys in a hot air balloon, wandering through ancient underground cities, or simply gazing at the sunset over the surreal landscape, this is a place that will leave a lasting impression on your heart. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience you won’t want to miss.

With Discovery Balloons, we had a very remarkable and incredible experience. They were quick to respond through text and readily picked us up and left us off at the hotel. We had the hot air balloon ride with Hakan, who was an excellent navigator. Finally, the champagne and faux tails were a nice touch. Discovery Balloons gave excellent service, and I definitely suggest this activity with them.
Amazing memorable experience, extremely helpful personnel, and well-organized event Pilot is really outstanding and skilled, and flying over the canyon at such a low altitude was breathtaking, highly recommended.
We thoroughly appreciated this trip, and we were transported from start to finish (hotel pickup). Given the early departure, we were given small nibbles and drinks for “breakfast” on the way. The hot air balloon journey was quite smooth, and the pilot was outstanding, landing perfectly. We were served champagne and cake after the flight, which was fantastic. Thank you to the entire staff (including the pilot) for working so hard to make this a pleasurable, safe, and smooth experience for all of us. Thank you.
The Cappadocia tour far exceeded our expectations. The landscape with its “fairy chimneys” and valleys is simply surreal. We had the chance to explore the underground city labyrinth of Derinkuyu, which provided a fascinating insight into the region’s history. The balloon ride at sunrise was the highlight of the excursion, offering us an unparalleled view of the landscape. The organization of the tour was excellent. A great experience!
The two-day tour was fantastic. The cave hotel was cozy, and the balloon ride was simply unforgettable. Our guide was very knowledgeable. Thank you!
Our experience on the 2-day Cappadocia tour was unforgettable. The tour started with a hotel pick-up and a scenic drive to Cappadocia. On the first day, we visited the underground city of Saratli, Uchisar Castle, and the village of Cavusin. The hot air balloon ride on the second morning was the absolute highlight, with breathtaking views of the fairy chimneys at sunrise. The cave hotel was cozy and well-equipped, adding a special touch to the trip. The meals provided were delicious, and our guide was very informative and friendly. Highly recommended.
I was on holiday alone in Belek and found this tour on the internet. All I can say is that Cappadocia is a magical place. It makes you feel something you didn’t expect! The valleys and rock formations are the highlights. However, expect to see many other cool places too. The underground city, viewpoints, and local workshops are great additions to the itinerary. Very well organized. I loved it.
