A memorable experience for both adults and kids. Enjoyed the hot-air balloon at sunrise and it was so cool seeing Hierapolis up close. Cleopatra’s Pool was a beautiful end to the tour. Bring some snacks for the ride if traveling with little ones!

Great adventure for the family! Floating above such a pristine landscape was unforgettable, and the chance to soak in Cleopatra’s warm waters afterwards was a real treat. Tour is well-organized and the guide had lots of fun stories for the kiddos.
