Chris Monk Ballooning

We are a husband-and-wife team with decades of commercial ballooning experience and a genuine love for Somerset from the air. Our flights are fully private: just two or three guests in the basket, with the pace and focus shaped around you rather than a large passenger load.

From launch areas near Wells, Glastonbury, Cheddar and Sparkford, you'll drift over cathedral spires, open Levels and familiar landmarks in the calm of an early morning. We hold a UK CAA balloon operator licence, follow strict safety standards, and finish every flight with a celebratory toast and light refreshments after landing.
