Every morning, if the wind allows, a hundred balloons rise over the valleys. You do not need to be in one to enjoy it.

## Getting there

Fly to Kayseri or Nevşehir, then take a shuttle to Göreme.

## Where to stay

A cave hotel in Göreme with a roof terrace facing east.

## What I would do differently

I would walk the Rose Valley at sunset, when the rock turns pink.

Prices in this guide are what I paid. They move every season, so use them as a rough guide.
