Full description
The wind lulling you, the panorama illuminated by the colours of dawn, the surreal silence broken only by the light of the flame: these are the elements that make this hot-air balloon flight unmissable!
Experience the magic in the heart of Florence and enjoy the spectacle of the city and the Tuscan countryside from above. You will fly for about 1 hour in total safety and tranquillity, accompanied by expert pilots.
Finally, you will enjoy a small refreshment with pastries, typical products and a glass of champagne!
What we will do
We will be at the take-off site in the heart of Florence at first light. Here we will be welcomed by the crew, who will direct us to our hot-air balloon.
We will then board the wicker basket and, after a briefing on safety regulations, we will finally be ready to take off. The pilot will briefly explain the behaviour to be adopted during the various phases of the flight.
We will reach an altitude of between 300 and 1200 metres, depending on the wind of the day. During the flight, we will be able to admire the magnificent city of Florence and the Tuscan countryside from above, enjoying the breathtaking panorama that will open up before our eyes.
After about 1 hour of flight, it will be time to land. Wind conditions will determine the landing zone, generally on grassland near Florence. We will find refreshments (included in the fee) prepared by the crew, including pastries, a plate of local cheeses and cold cuts, and a glass of champagne.
After the refreshment, the crew will take us back to the take-off site. The activity has a total duration of about 3 hours and includes the flight, safety briefing and return to the starting point.
