A very early morning but it's worth it. Balloon ride was great and so was the breakfast afterwards.

The whole trip was excellent; even better than we expected. We would recommend this trip as a definite highlight of our trip. We even assisted with the packing away of the balloon, which was was enjoyable.

This is an experience that will stay with us forever. The view from the balloon is fantastic and looking at the scenery and clouds below us as we drift with the wind, we felt like we are walking on the clouds. Perhaps this is what being an angel will be like. A great out of this world experience.

Very nice, but extremely cold, take several layers of clothing with you.

The staff at the tour operator were totally professional and did an outstanding job of making this a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I totally recommend hot air ballooning to anyone; we had so much fun!

It was a first try for me at a balloon ride. Watching the sunrise, it was absolutely stunning and nothing else can compare. The pilot was extremely professional, "driving" the balloons through various views and the landing was not scary as I had originally thought. Definitely must try!!

All I can say about this trip is that is was fantastic. The crew, the pilot everyone very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend to anyone who has not done this - you are really missing out.

This balloon trip was so beautiful, I had such a good time, they took really good care of you, the people were really nice, and the breakfast was good. But the balloon ride was great, the vineyards were beautiful, and the whole experience was really fun.

An excellent trip well worth booking. If you are from Europe remember that you have a 95 percent chance of success of flying on the day as opposed to at home with our weather etc. Brilliant fun !!!
