Great family experience! I'm glad I picked this hot air balloons ride over others since it flew over both Florence and the Tuscan countryside and it was wonderful flying over both. Ivan is very nice and experienced. My family including two children ages 5 and 11 all had a great time. I would recommend this excursion to anyone.
An absolutely unforgettable sunrise hot air balloon experience over Florence! Ivan is an exceptionally skilled pilot who made us feel completely safe and at ease throughout the flight. The entire staff was friendly, professional, and well organized. Watching the sun rise over Florence from the balloon was breathtaking. A truly magical experience—highly recommended!
Absolutely, stunning views, and an overall wonderful experience!
A beautiful experience to have once in a lifetime; seeing Florence from above at dawn is something indescribable... the staff is nice and precise. I highly recommend relying on them; you will be satisfied.
Extremely professional Team
Magnificent experience! Ivan and the other guys were super professional, experienced, and friendly! We flew over Florence shortly after dawn, finding perfect weather. Excellent landing! Would do it again!!
Wonderful time with the crew. Very peaceful floating in the air.
Ivan and his team were friendly and professional everyone had a wonderful time.The sight of Florence fromthe air and the silence was breathtaking and a memory we will all treasure. Thoroughly recommend
Just do it! This was a life experience and was spectacular! I am terrified of heights but the flight was great and I would do it again. Ivan was our pilot and his family served us so well. He knew I was scared so Ivan flew lower and it was amazing. The take off from Florence was fantastic and flight to the countryside was breath taking. Ivan is the best! My wife loved the experience and said this takes the cake on experiences that we have had together. Your entire family will love it. Do it!
I had been hoping for a hot air balloon ride for ages! Ivan was very kind, accommodating my needs and commitments (I drove him crazy!). Gaia and her entire family were immediately professional and welcoming, as was the rest of the staff. We departed from the center of Florence; it felt like we could touch the dome of the Duomo and then off... towards Cerbaia. Surrounded by nature and silence, we enjoyed the journey slowly enough to savor everything, yet quickly enough not to get bored. The height of the hot air balloon allows you to see everything clearly, but you can also feel the height of the flight... I imagined it would be fantastic, but not this much! Very fun landing, with a lively yet sustainable and enjoyable experience. Final toast and the start of a day, without a doubt, filled with good cheer! I highly recommend it to everyone, even to Florentines like me. Thank you again for everything.
