If you’re dreaming of those iconic images of Cappadocia—hot air balloons filling the sky at sunrise, fairy chimneys standing majestically in the background—this photoshoot experience might just be the perfect way to turn those dreams into stunning keepsakes. While we haven’t tried it ourselves, based on reviews and detailed descriptions, it’s clear this tour offers a chance to get gorgeous photos in some of the most photogenic spots in Central Anatolia.
What makes this experience stand out? First, the opportunity to wear vibrant flying dresses and strike a pose against the backdrop of hundreds of balloons is honestly a photographer’s dream. Second, the professional guidance and flexible location choices help ensure you get memorable, high-quality shots. But, a word of caution — it’s a shorter, two-hour commitment, so if you’re expecting a full day of photography or adventure, this might feel a bit limited.
This experience is well-suited for couples, friends, or anyone wanting beautiful photos with minimal hassle. If you’re after a quick, well-organized shoot with expert help, it’s worth considering. But if you’re looking for a more extensive tour or a relaxed, multi-location session, you might want to explore other options.

The Locations and What They’re Like

Since the tour is limited to Goreme, the locations are conveniently close, but still varied enough to give you a good mix of backgrounds. You might find yourself in open fields with fairy chimney formations, cityscapes of Goreme itself, or scenic viewpoints overlooking the landscape.
The photos will capture the vibrant balloons in the sky, especially if you schedule your shoot around sunrise or just as the balloons are taking off.

Several reviews also praise the professionalism and friendliness of the photographers and guides, making the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable, not rushed or stressful.

Keep in mind, food and drinks aren’t included, so plan accordingly if you want to make it part of a longer day. The experience is all about the photos, not a full tour, so it’s best suited for those who want to focus on capturing beautiful images during their visit.
