What to expect
Loire Valley
There are many places where you may fly by 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 in 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 organized every morning and evening, if weather permits, from April to October. Balloon tours usually start in the early mornings (at about 6:00 to 9:00 a.m.) and evenings (from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m.). 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, and sweets) will be offered, and then you will be "baptized" by a deep ballooning tradition; you will be granted baptizing names and titles, as well as the first flight certificates. Then our pilot will bring you back in a 4x4 car to the meeting or take-off site.
Château de Chenonceau, a stunning castle spanning the Cher River, is a must-visit for tourists exploring the Loire Valley. Renowned for its breathtaking gardens, rich history, and architectural beauty, this historic monument enchants visitors with its elegance and charm. Experience the grandeur of this 16th-century castle, known as 'the Ladies' Castle,' and immerse yourself in its captivating past.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
