A truly positive experience from start to finish, from the prompt and timely hotel pickup to the... flight. The pilot was excellent; he skimmed all the chimneys. We flew mainly over the Valley of Love, but from above, you can see the entire area between Goreme and Uchisar. The price is €70 per person, but the price depends on the weather. Two days earlier, it was €130 per person, and the next day, €55.read more
