Shared hot-air balloon flight in the Monferrato region with breakfast

If you are looking for a truly out-of-the-ordinary experience, here it is.

A hot-air balloon flight in the heart of Monferrato surrounded by hills, vineyards, and castles, with a 360-degree view of one of the most beautiful landscapes in Piedmont. Together with other participants, you will climb aboard the wicker basket and let yourself be carried away by the wind for about an hour.

And to conclude? An Italian breakfast on a farm to share the emotions of flying.

What we will do

The appointment is at the take-off point in Tonco, in the province of Asti (the precise address will be communicated to us a few days before the experience).

If we wish, we will be able to watch the balloon inflate as the balloon slowly takes shape before our eyes and the sky is coloured by the first light of dawn: it is the perfect start to something extraordinary.

After a short briefing with the pilot, we climb aboard the wicker basket and begin to ascend. The sound of the burner, the lightness of take-off, the feeling of being off the ground: within seconds we will already be above the hills, carried gently by the wind.

During the flight, which lasts about one hour, we will admire all the beauty of the Monferrato from above: endless vineyards, castles dominating the heights, and picturesque villages nestled among the hills. A spectacle that changes with every glance!

Thelanding will take place at a point decided by the wind and weather conditions. One of the organisation's vehicles will be waiting for us, ready to take us to a selected farmhouse in the area. There, an Italian breakfast awaits us, with coffee, cappuccino, croissants, and local products.

Finally, we will be driven back to our starting point. The whole activity takes about three hours, including preparation, flight, transfer and breakfast.
