“After I booked they sent me a message saying that Goreme is full and that it will be done in Soganli & that I can get a full refund. Because of the limits of the balloons I had went ahead with it. It was an amazing experience that everyone in their lifetime should experience. I still feel that I paid too much as I paid for Goreme and Soganli. The pickup however was on time and we went up and down safely in the hot air balloon.”
