Before dawn the valley exhales. A fleet of balloons bulbs into the cold air, their fabric yawning as the burners punctuate the sky; below, the moon-stiff rock columns of Cappadocia fold into shadow. That first morning—if you choose the gold package and the weather agrees—you rise with the pilots and float above a landscape chiseled by time: volcanic tuff softened by wind and water into cones, chimneys and hidden churches. The balloon ride is cinematic, but the rest of this four-day loop through western and central Anatolia arrives with equal drama: the white, steaming terraces of Pamukkale; the marble streets of Ephesus; a camel-led walk through rose-colored valleys.
