How Long Does a Hot Air Balloon Flight Last?

Our hot air balloon rides usually last about an hour, depending on the weather and landing options. Plan for at least four hours in total, including safety instructions, balloon setup and takedown, the flight, a toast with Prosecco, and return to the launch site.

What Should I Wear For a Balloon Flight?

For your comfort, we recommend dressing as if you were going for a pleasant countryside stroll, taking into account the weather and the season. Think cosy layers and maybe a hat to keep your head protected from the warmth of the burners. Sensible shoes are a must, especially if we're walking in fields that might be a bit damp or muddy. We love it when passengers join in to help inflate and deflate the balloon – it makes things quicker for everyone! Just wear something you don't mind getting a tad dirty. Oh, and leave the fancy gear and high heels at home – we wouldn't want any mishaps!
