Hot Air Balloon Ride for Two 1045024
Overview
Flying high above the treetops, with the wind in your hair, you look out across patchwork fields towards an idyllic village spire in the depths of the British countryside. There is no better way to see the stunning beauty of nature than to go on a hot air balloon flight. Reaching heights of up to 5000 feet a balloon offers unparalleled views in every direction. You'll be met at the launch site by a fully qualified CAA pilot who will introduce you to hot air ballooning and give a full safety briefing. You will then be invited to assist with getting the balloon prepared and inflated, ready for your flight of a lifetime. As soon as the balloon is ready your romantic journey will begin. Soaring above the earth you will be able to take photo's and videos of the wondrous sights before gently touching back down about an hour later. With your feet back on the ground your pilot will invite you to join a toast with a chilled glass of champagne (soft drinks also available). This flight will leave you with treasured memories of a romantic and awe-inspiring day.
