See Tuscany from a whole new angle as you drift peacefully above the countryside surrounding San Gimignano. This early morning hot air balloon flight combines unforgettable views, experienced pilots and a relaxed breakfast after landing to create a memorable start to the day.
Your exact meeting point, meeting time and Google Maps location will be sent after the final weather check, usually the afternoon or evening before your flight. After meeting your pilot and ground crew, you'll receive a full safety briefing before watching the balloon inflate and preparing for take-off. If you've chosen the optional hotel transfer when booking, you'll be collected before travelling to the launch area.
Once in the air, you'll spend around an hour floating wherever the wind takes you across the countryside surrounding San Gimignano. Rolling hills, vineyards, olive groves, cypress-lined roads and medieval villages create an ever-changing landscape, with every flight following a different route depending on the day's conditions. After a gentle landing, you'll celebrate with a light breakfast and a glass of sparkling wine or juice before returning to the original meeting point.
Flights operate around the beautiful medieval town of San Gimignano, with launch sites chosen according to the weather conditions on the day. Your confirmed meeting location is sent after the final weather assessment to ensure the safest possible flight.
Known for its distinctive skyline, vineyards and rolling countryside, this part of Tuscany offers wonderful scenery from the air. Since balloons travel with the wind, every journey reveals a slightly different view of the surrounding landscape.
No previous experience is necessary, making this a fantastic activity for first-time balloon passengers as well as those looking to celebrate a special occasion. Children are normally welcome from 4 years old when accompanied by an adult.
Comfortable outdoor clothing and flat, closed-toe shoes are recommended. Requests for younger children can be considered individually depending on height, safety requirements and the expected flying conditions.
