Many people know firsthand how beautiful Pamukkale is. Snow-white slope, mineral terraces, the charm of ancient antiquities. Someone has already experienced all this for themselves. Today we offer you to look at Pamukkale in a new way. An excursion to Pamukkale with a flight in a hot air balloon will not only take you to an unprecedented height. But Alanya Balloon Tour will also let you fully experience all the charm of this natural monument.
From the very morning, as you leave your hotel behind, the journey around the Turkish lands will begin. Approaching Pamukkale, the first emotions will begin to manifest themselves – you will want to touch such a miracle of nature as soon as possible. Arriving at the launch site for the flight, you will definitely be inspired by the scope of all the action! While the balloon is being prepared for flight and filled with air, adrenaline slowly begins to be thrown into the blood. And now – everything is ready for takeoff.
Flying in a hot air balloon is not at all like flying in an airplane or paragliding. This tickling feeling inside the stomach, this slight dizziness from the magnificent views, this joy that overwhelms you with every minute more and more. And what a view under your feet! Snow-white Pamukkale – the sun gently envelops the dairy terraces and is gently reflected in the travertines – the view is simply beyond words!
Of course, you will have enough time to explore the area of Pamukkale while on the ground. Relax in the cool waters of snow-white travertines, escaping from the scorching rays of the sun; pose enough, taking hundreds of beautiful pictures; go hiking through the ruins of ancient Hierapolis, stumbling upon a mystery around every turn; feel like a Roman speaker, standing on the main ancient stage of Hierapolis – the Amphitheater or just spend time with benefits for the skin, soaking in the Cleopatra’s pool – it’s up to you!
Visiting Pamukkale and flying in a hot air balloon is a completely new experience of learning Turkish history and original beauty. The words “I have already seen” or “I already know everything” are definitely not about our tour. We are ready to show you something that no one has shown before us!

The eighth wonder of the world, Pamukkale seems very mysterious. The slopes, from afar, seem to be covered with layers of snow-white snow, but in fact it is not snow at all.
Around the reserve there are many beautiful legends about the history of its appearance. But this is entirely the merit of the unique sources for which the region is famous. The water that has been flowing down the hills for many years is so rich in calcium that when it settles, it leaves behind a snow-white coating. Over the years, the layer became thicker and the slopes whiter.
The slopes themselves have a special name – Pamukkale travertines. You can also walk along these travertines, plunge into pools with healing water, take memorable pictures against a chic background.
