For travellers who want the magic of a Cappadocian sunrise without the cost of a balloon flight, this 2-hour pre-dawn ATV tour is the perfect compromise. Departing about an hour before sunrise, you drive your own quad through the valleys and arrive at a high panoramic ridge just as more than 100 hot-air balloons rise above the fairy chimneys. The dawn light, the silence, and the slow ascent of the balloons make this one of the most photographed moments in all of Turkey. Includes pre-dawn hotel pickup, brief driving lesson, helmet and goggles, lead guide, and a hot tea stop at the viewpoint.
help Frequently Asked Questions
What time does the sunrise ATV tour start? expand_more
Pickup is about one hour before sunrise (roughly 05:00 in summer and 06:30 in winter). You reach the panoramic ridge just as the balloons start rising above the fairy chimneys.
Is the balloon flight included? expand_more
No. This is an ATV tour to watch the balloons from the ground – you do not fly. It is the best alternative if you want the sunrise balloon view without the price of a flight.
Do I need a driving licence or ATV experience? expand_more
No licence and no previous experience are needed. Before departure our guide gives a short driving lesson on a flat area, and the quads are automatic and easy to control.
Can two people ride one ATV? expand_more
Yes. You can choose a Double ATV for two adults or one adult and a child. If you prefer to drive alone, select the Single ATV option.
Which valleys does the ATV tour visit? expand_more
Depending on the duration, the route passes the fairy chimneys between the valleys, Swords Valley, Monastery Valley, the panorama viewpoint, Güllüdere (Rose) Valley and, on the 2-hour tours, Red Valley and White Valley with the balloon viewpoints.
What is included in the price? expand_more
Hotel pickup and drop-off in the Göreme area, the ATV with fuel, helmet, goggles and dust scarf, a lead guide at the front and a safety guide behind the group, and a short driving lesson.
What should I wear? expand_more
Comfortable clothes you do not mind getting dusty, closed shoes and sunglasses. In winter dress warmly; the valleys are windy on the quad. A light jacket is useful for the sunrise and sunset tours.
Is the tour suitable for children? expand_more
Children can ride as passengers on a Double ATV with an adult driver. Drivers must be at least 18 years old.
How many quads are in one group? expand_more
Groups are limited to 8 quads so the pace stays safe and the guide can look after everyone. Private groups can be arranged on request.

We only just found a spot for the sunset tour — it books up early. At sunset the group forms a huge convoy, perfect for photos, and the air really does turn lovely and cool.
