All of our passengers are then invited to help inflate the balloon a fantastic hands on experience and a chance to see our magnificent balloons up close.

After your hot air balloon flight you can toast your experience with Champagne or your choice of soft drink. You will be presented with a certificate signed by your pilot as a moment of your magical trip.
