Full description

Are you looking for a unique gift to celebrate an important occasion or simply want to spend an unforgettable moment with a special person? We have just the thing for you: an exclusive hot-air balloon flight in Paestum.

On board the wicker basket, carried by the wind, you will soar above the Archaeological Park, with the mythical Greek temples before you and, in the background, the sea of the Cilento coastline and theisland of Capri in the distance.

Can you imagine a more romantic setting? Yet that's not all, because the hot-air balloon flight will be made even more evocative by the colours of dawn or sunset, which will fill the sky with magnificent hues. A spectacle not to be missed!

What we will do

The meeting point will be near the archaeological site of Paestum (SA), at dawn or shortly before sunset. Depending on the wind conditions, the pilot will decide whether to take off on site or move to a more favourable spot.

After a safety briefing, you will wait until the balloon is inflated and when the air inside is warm enough, you will take off into the wind.

The panorama you will admire will be of indescribable beauty, with the Temples of Hera, Neptune and Athena taking centre stage. All around will be the Cilento sea and the hills along the coast that will make the scenery even more evocative and unforgettable.

The flight will last from 40 to 60 minutes depending on the strength of the wind and on board the wicker basket there will only be you and the pilot. Thelanding will take place at a flat spot several kilometres from the starting point, where you will be accompanied by theground crew who will follow the balloon along the way.

You can enrich the experience with a toast on board or a tasting of typical products on arrival (optional and not included in the participation fee).
