WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF HOT AIR BALLOONING
We have been flying balloons for over 20 years, not only here but also in many countries around the world. With this extensive experience we aim to give you the ultimate balloon flight over the beautiful countryside of the Czech Republic. You will see the towns, castles and cities in a way that you have never have seen them before. A balloon drifts slowly and majestically over the landscape, allowing you to soak up the view, be a part of it rather than just an observer. You hear the dogs barking, see surprised people looking up in wonder and finally arrive back on earth with a slight bump, knowing that you have experienced something rather special.
We drift along with a wind. This varies in strength and changes direction at different heights although we rarely exceed 500m. The basket is completely steady and provides a wonderful platform for taking photographs. The pilot adjusts the height of the balloon by changing the temperature of the air inside it. Regular blasts from the powerful propane burner heat this air. Burn more often and you go up, less frequently and you come down. Simple! After landing and a christening with champagne, our chase vehicle will take you back to the launch field.
