SoloVerified booking2 days ago5/5An excellent experience. Everything was perfect. I recommend not booking too far in advance. I booked mine the day before the flight, and if I’d booked it in town, it would have been cheaper. Also, because some people pay for it and then can’t go due to weather conditions. However, I have no complaints, and it was a unique experience that I recommend to everyone. Great work by both the pilot and the team in setting up, landing, transporting, and deflating the balloon—everything was a 10 out of 10.PPietro B
CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago5/5Convenient and punctual pickup service—everything was organized perfectly. The pilot safely took us up to an altitude of 1,100 meters, with a perfect, pinpoint landing. Even the “standard” flight is extremely exciting because, while the other hot-air balloons were already in the air ahead of us, we had the chance to take some beautiful photos of the valley.YYulieth R

GroupVerified bookingLast week5/5Everything went very well with the experience. We booked for 4:00 a.m., but the agency was very attentive to our needs and explained that at this time of year, sunrise is later, so they picked us up a little later. The flight went smoothly and without any complications; the time just flew by.AAlessandra C
GroupVerified booking4 days ago5/5A hot-air balloon ride is something you have to do at least once in your life!! The staff was impeccable and knowledgeable. It was thrilling to watch the sunrise and see all those hot-air balloons in the sky. A birthday I’ll never forget!
