Few experiences are as serene and at the same time thrilling - the sensation of time suspended as the world glides gently by. Your fun begins with the inflation of the balloon. Then away you go where the wind dictates. Once landed and the balloon packed away, you will be returned to the launch site. It's a magical experience that's wonderful to share, so why not buy an Explorer voucher for two.

You will be briefed on the flight before take-off. As part of the experience, you may participate in helping set up the balloon and also to pack it away after landing. The retrieve crew will follow the balloon and meet you after the landing to return you to the launch site. You should allow approximately 3-4 hours in total for your trip and the retrieve, depending upon conditions on the day.
