A hot air balloon ride over Wiltshire gives the perfect vantage point from which to savour views of the wide valleys and downs of this historic county. You might spot some fine examples of early English architecture including the tallest church spire in the UK if you fly over the city! From Salisbury Racecourse in a westerly direction you might fly over the town of Shaftesbury whilst drifting northwardsmay take you over Amesbury towards Stonehenge.

Launching from the fabulous Larmer Tree Gardens you will see their spectacular gardens and of course their resident peacocks will be there to wave you off as you drift peacefully skywards.

Around five miles west of Marlborough sits Silbury Hill, where according to ancient legend Merlin is to be found buried beneath a prehistoric man-made mound in Europe, which is the tallest of its kind standing at 120 ft high!
