The company Uber introduced a new service in Turkey, which allows lovers of extreme experiences to book a hot air balloon flight in Cappadocia through the Uber Reserve mobile application. The service, known as Uber Balloon, became available to users last week and offers the opportunity to visit Goreme National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This 1.5 hour hot air balloon adventure with Uber costs €150 per person. This price includes the cost of a taxi transfer from the city of Göreme to the starting point. It is important to note that other tour companies offering similar hot air balloon flights in Cappadocia usually also keep around the same price range for their services.

Due to weather restrictions, the number of Uber Balloon rides will be limited and subject to weather conditions. Therefore, passengers wishing to use this service are advised to make a reservation in advance using the Uber Reserve function in the app, at least 12 hours before the scheduled departure. This will allow travelers to get the best experience from their adventure over the magical Cappadocia.
