Petite dégustation
There are many places where you may fly by a hot air balloon, but a flight in the Loire valley / France is one of the top 10 things to do in this beautiful country. You will overfly at least one of the most beautiful castles of France: Amboise, Chenonceau, Chinon, Chaumont sur Loire… All these castles are inseparable from the history of France and its kings. Hot air balloon flights are organised every morning and evening, if weather permits, from March to October. Balloon tours usually start in early mornings (at about 6:00 to 9:00 am) and evenings (5:00 - 8:00 pm.). A balloon flight lasts for about 1 hour, but the entire process takes about 3-4 hours. After a flight a small degustation of local products (wine, cheese, sweets) will be offered, then you will be "baptized" by a deep ballooning tradition, you will be granted baptizing names and titles, also the first flight certificates. Then our pilot will bring you back by a 4x4 car to the meeting or take-off site.
You will make your own way to the meeting points
