Float over dreamlike landscapes flecked with dramatic rock formations, raise a glass of bubbly to the rising sun, and watch day break over Cappadocia from your lofty vantage point in a high-flying hot air balloon. Enjoy tasty snacks before you take off on this intimate ride over Turkey's hinterland.

Get picked up from your hotel and ride under a star-studded Turkish sky to reach your launch point. Nibble on appetizers when you arrive, and let your pilot pump a few more blasts of hot air into your ever-inflating hot air balloon. When it's time to take off, climb into the spacious basket and throw off the mooring lines to start gently ascending.

Watch as the dark horizon lightens with the rising sun and pop open a few bottles of champagne when the first golden rays spill out over Cappadocia's incredible topography. See long shadows cast by the area's s-called fairy chimneys, and chat with your guide about the geologic forces that create these towering natural monoliths. Snap a few photos in the early morning light and then drift gently back down to the ground to conclude your flight and catch a lift back to your hotel.
