Cappadocia is amazingly beautiful!

We had a terrible chaos about our Cappadocia hot air balloon tour. Although we made a reservation with a balloon company in Cappadocia, we were called by the company 12 hours before the flight and said that our reservation was canceled. We were shocked!!! They returned our money. We had a lot of stress and didn't know what to do. We found Vigo Tours on Google and sent an email. They immediately returned, and within half an hour they arranged a flight for us the next day!!!! be shocked and happy again: these happened within 1 hour!!! They came to the hotel and brought our ticket and collected the payment. Our hot air balloon tour was amazing. In Cappadocia skies, we spent an amazing 1 hour on magical rock formations and fairy chimneys! We thank Vigo Tours thousands of times, which made us very happy when we were in terrible chaos!
