Glide over valleys and castles, enjoying breathtaking panoramic views of the rolling scenery below. Each flight offers a different experience, as the balloons are directed by the breeze. Upon landing, enjoy a glass of sparkling champagne and a breakfast with local products before the transfer shuttle back to your take-off site.

Hot air ballooning is super exciting and wonderful. Our balloonist Ally was great, she told us something about ballooning and gave us orientation above the clouds, it was simply a fantastic experience.
