Full description

Do you want to surprise someone special? Celebrate an important event with a unique experience? An exclusive hot-air balloon flight is the perfect way to make this moment even more unforgettable!

It will be just the two of you and the pilot, free to enjoy the magic of the flight in complete freedom. We will set off from San Colombano al Lambro, in the province of Milan, and fly over the evocative landscapes of Lombardy.

In addition to the balloon flight, our packages include a pre-flight briefing, a baptism of flight certificate signed by the pilot, transport with our vehicles to the take-off point, and participation in a final aperitif with typical products: with Milano Mongolfiere, the experience will be even more unforgettable!

What we will do

The meeting point is in San Colombano al Lambro. We fly early in the morning or at dusk to admire the landscapes at the most suggestive times of day.

Once we have gathered, we will head for the take-off point, which is chosen according to the direction of the wind, with the objective of passing over the hill or in its vicinity.

Once you reach the panoramic altitude, if the day is clear, you will see Pavia, Piacenza, and with a bit of luck (depending on your vantage point) the skyscrapers of Milan.

Your gaze will range from the Pre-Alps to the Apennines. Not far away you can see the Po, Italy's largest river, and the typical Lombardy countryside with its fascinating geometries.

We will then descend to the wheat fields in search of a space for a comfortable landing and a tasty toast.

Who it is aimed at

Flying in a hot-air balloon is a suitable activity for anyone in good health.

You cannot fly if:

You are pregnant;

  • You have had an injury or operation that limits your ambulation or you are unable to maintain the correct support position when landing (bend your knees by holding on to the handles);
  • You are less than 8 years old and less than 130 cm tall;
  • You are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
  • If you have any doubts, consult your doctor and bring us a medical certificate stating that you are fit to fly.

It is important to remove any doubts about the state of your health, otherwise it could affect your safety and that of other passengers.

Other information

Our flights are programmed to last approximately 45 to 60 minutes, but the pilot, for safety reasons, has absolute responsibility for deciding the duration, conduct of the flight, and the time and place of landing.

If you would like to impress the person who will be coming with you even more, you can request the preparation of a banner or the addition of a bottle of champagne, just contact us at the number you will find on your booking confirmation.

We cannot guarantee exactly how long or which route the flight will follow, after all, that's what makes every flight a unique experience! Furthermore, the flight is dependent on weather conditions. It is therefore possible that the flight may be cancelled if weather conditions make the activity unsafe or impracticable.

Important: You must arrive at the meeting point 15 minutes before the time chosen for the activity!

Dogs are not allowed on board the hot-air balloon.

From 1 June to 1 September, afternoon flights will not take place due to high temperatures.
