A sunrise balloon ride is an unforgettable experience. Early in the morning, dozens of colorful balloons rise into the sky at the same time, and you slowly drift over the valley. The view is breathtaking: the lush green fields, the shimmering river in the distance, and the desert with its ancient temples. The silence up in the air, broken only by the gentle sound of the burner, makes it even more special. The sunrise itself is truly magical, the first rays of sunlight sweeping across the valley, and the contrast between the fertile green and the dry desert, create a fairytale like moment. I am afraid of heights, but I didn’t feel a single moment of fear during the entire flight. Everything felt safe, take-off and landing were very smooth and gradual, and the landing was soft. A real must-do, even if you’re scared of heights!
