What makes this experience extra special is the privacy.

Give the gift of adventure, tranquillity, and jaw-dropping views with a Private Hot Air Balloon Flight they’ll remember forever.
Ballooning is a weather dependent activity and your flight will be rescheduled if weather conditions are not suitable for flying.
Since hot air balloons travel with the wind, certain wind directions may lead to limited landing options or challenging terrain. To ensure a smooth, safe and enjoyable flight, it may be necessary to move launch site on the day.

Meeting times vary throughout the year as daylight hours change but they are planned to ensure the most stable and picturesque times of the day.

You'll be kept informed of the meeting time for your booking but here is a rough guide:
Morning Flights - As early as 5:30am or as late as 7:00am, depending on sunrise times
Evening Flights - As early as 3:30pm or as late as 6.30pm, depending on sunset times
