On this horseback ride with Turgut and Ali we had to wait a little because Turgut's horse ran away :) just kidding — it was a wonderful day. The guides were attentive and took all precautions. We will be back next year; the valleys and the environment are great.

Riding through the valleys at sunset is wonderful, and the sunset view is especially beautiful. The refreshments were just right and the breaks were full of good conversation. Thank you all.

What I liked the most was the amazing view at sunrise. Flying over the valleys and fairy chimneys was beautiful and very peaceful. The colors of the sky made the moment feel special. I also liked how calm the ride was. Seeing many balloons in the sky at the same time was incredible. It was a great experience that I will never forget.

I don’t know if there are any valleys we haven’t been to yet, but we have walked far and wide. It was a bit hot, but well worth it.
