Life-changing. Floating over Pamukkale at sunrise with champagne after — it does not get better than this. The highlight of our entire Turkey trip.

We have done Cappadocia balloons and Pamukkale is equally stunning but less crowded. The white terraces from above are otherworldly.

Worth every penny and every minute of early wake-up. Our pilot was hilarious and the views were indescribable. Book it.
