Great experience - The experience was perfect from start to finish! The transfer showed up at the exact time and accompanied us to the place where we would fly with the balloon with a small minibus very comfortable and heated. The experience was really nice and all the staff were very kind. Thanks again

Saved Our Cappadocia Dream! - This balloon ride was the absolute savor of our trip! Our original booking, the number one item on our Cappadocia bucket list, was canceled due to weather. With our flight home looming, our initial operator had no space, and all other last-minute options were outrageously expensive. My family was crushed. Then we found Pegas Balloons on Viator. The price was fantastic—even less than our original—but we were skeptical. The flight was over the lesser-known "Cat Valley," and frankly, the reviews were terrible. We had a choice: risk it or miss out entirely. We took the chance, and it was the best decision we could have made. The experience was FLAWLESS. The pick-up was punctual, the vehicle was clean, and the staff was wonderfully friendly. Our balloon was in the air perfectly in time for a spectacular sunrise. The 50+ minute flight was breathtaking, with our skillful pilot guiding us over stunning valleys. The landing was a masterclass—he set the basket down right on the trailer! They even offered a 360-degree video of the flight on a USB for just $20. For a seamless, beautiful, and thrilling experience that turned our trip from a disaster into a dream come true, look no further. This was worth every penny and more. Highly recommended!

First balloon - It was my first balloon experience. Only about 80% of them flew over fields or in the wilderness, and about 20% of them flew through valleys. It was a 40-minute flight, up to 200 meters (about 5 minutes) high, and otherwise quite low. Therefore, the wind was calm and there was no fear. I was disappointed because I was expecting a bit more altitude flying experience, but my friend said that was good because he was scared. Still, the view was great to see above and it was good because it was cheaper than the other tours.

⚠️ Avoid this company! Très mauvaise expérience - ⚠️ Avoid this company! Last-minute cancellation (fake weather excuse), no full refund, and many travelers report the same scam. They cancel cheap bookings to resell at higher prices locally. Very dishonest and unprofessional. ❌ Très mauvaise expérience ! Réservation pour un vol en montgolfière annulée la veille sous prétexte de météo, alors que d’autres compagnies ont bien volé. Remboursement incomplet et toujours pas reçu. Des dizaines de voyageurs victimes du même procédé : ils annulent à la dernière minute pour revendre les places plus cher sur place. ⚠️ À éviter absolument

Disappointing. - We expected to fly over the fairy chimneys along with all the other balloons and see the sunrise. The reality: they took us to a lonely place km from where all the other balloons were flying, the dawn saw it on the ground and the landing was complicated. Disappointing experience. NOT RECOMMENDED.

Flight cancelled while others flew - The flight didn't leave. While we were on the ground and the balloons in the transports we saw a lot of balloons flying within walking distance. They told us where we were there was wind. A while later we were confirmed canceled. We were in the Chia Valley and I do not recommend this trip at all. The price is identical, 3 or 4 balloons will go and the views are not what come in the photos of many balloons flying.

The worse Company in the world - Please do not book here! They cancel the tour at the last moment Saying that the weather is bad but the weather is perfect and they operate normally. Instead they sell these tickets to someone else with a higher price. This is really bad and such companies shouldn't exist. Please do yourself a favor of not booking here so that your holidays aren't ruined!
