Balloon flights - The flight of a lifetime

The peaceful serenity of a balloon flight combines with the raw excitement to give flyers the trip of a lifetime. Take your camera to record the wonderful views, and watch the world drift by beneath you.

See the world from a different perspective. Try a balloon flight.

The thrill of a hot air balloon flight coupled with its peaceful serenity makes it an irresistible attraction. The roar of the burners soon transforms wispy nylon rustled by the breeze on the ground into a mighty balloon of immense stature.

As you rise gently from the ground it will feel more that the ground is dropping away than of any sensation of movement or rising. There is a feeling of peace and tranquillity and an apparent lack of wind - because it’s taking you with it.

Balloon flights are widely regarded as the experience of a lifetime, and can be a perfect gift for a couple’s anniversary, or an important birthday, or to someone you love. Balloon flights also work extremely week as corporate outings for those companies who want to do something a little bit different. Flights can take in any number from two to 19, so it could be a romantic flight for two or many of your most important clients who take to the air.

From Kent to Monmouthshire, from Cornwall to Aberdeenshire, there are hundreds of launch sites across England, Scotland and Wales, so you’re probably not far from the nearest one to you. Search for balloon flights now.

A hot air balloon ride can be a magical experience. You can experience the world from a different perspective in peace and tranquillity, hearing a dog’s bark or child’s cry in away you’ve never done before. From heights of up to a few thousand feet, you can gaze down upon the ‘miniature’ villages, towns and the countryside; onto the ‘toy’ cars and ‘model’ railways.

It’s a great place for aerial photography; a great vantage point to help record the magic of the flight. Every trip is unique, as each one is dependent on the wind, but you’ll have a good opportunity to spot wildlife, especially on morning flights.

A balloon flight is the oldest form of flying – yet still one of the most enjoyable and relaxing. Take time away from the fast pace of life, and suspend time and stress as you relax, watching the world drift below you.
