Volo in mongolfiera all'alba su York

This was a very welcome retirement gift from my work colleagues, as it has been a bucket list event for a long time. Our experience was quite frustrating at first with two previous bookings cancelled due to poor wind conditions. As these events are very much reliant on weather conditions, the company are certainly not at fault for these cancellations. However, the wait was certainly worth it. We felt the whole experience was very well organised, where we had the confidence in the balloon team, to make it a very safe and enjoyable experience. From start to finish, this memory will stay with us forever. This is a small family run business, who pride themselves in giving their customers the very best experience. If it is something you are considering doing, we recommend you do it. You will not be disappointed!

What a fantastic experience from start to finish. A safe and comfortable flight, and landing, with a very experienced pilot. Highly recommended

What an absolutely amazing experience! We booked a hot air balloon flight over York this morning as a joint birthday celebration, and it was everything we hoped for and more. The views were simply breathtaking, seeing York from above as the sun lit up the countryside was unforgettable. It truly is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we’ll never forget. A huge thank you to Ollie and the whole team. They were incredible from start to finish, answering all of our questions, making everyone feel at ease, and having a great sense of humour that made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you’re thinking about booking don’t hesitate – it’s an experience you’ll treasure forever!

This was my second flight with the Yorkshire Balloon Flights and was partly to surprise a cousin who had his first flight as an 80th birthday present. Having had previous flights cancelled, always due to the vagaries of the weather only, it was great to be able to partake on the first booked date, thank you weather gods. As before the flight was excellent with a suitable running commentary by the owner/pilot, Oliver who again made the whole experience personal. Much time and effort is put in to making a photographic commemorative record of the flight. I have no hesitation in recommending people to use this company which, in my opinion, is excellent value for money. Many thanks Oliver and your company.

Just finished an amazing morning with yorkshire baloon flights. What an experience. Loved every minute, the views over york were unreal and everything was so well organized. Ollie and Reeve (forgive me if that's wrong) did a great job.keep up the good work guys.

Top notch flight and experienced crew made the flight unforgettable for all the right reasons - topped off with a glass of cold ‘bubbly’ and certificate. Opted for the photo/video package that is winging its way via email - all very efficient but relaxed.

Thoroughly enjoyed this experience - Oliver and Ribs were a brilliant team getting everyone involved in set up and clear down. The flight itself was very smooth with an excellent landing . The views were incredible . And a lovely surprise at the end of champagne in a field ! Would highly recommend this experience as a fun and safe thing to do .

This was on my 50th year bucket list and it certainly did not disappoint. The booking was easy - even when I got cancelled due to the weather a couple of times , all communications were clear and concise. Today I got to go up in the newest Balloon and it was totally amazing - unloading the basket, setting up the balloon, packing the balloon away - you take part in it all!! It is a one stop shop experience not to be missed. As a solo passenger it was fantastic - everyone was looked after and involved in the experience. If you have any doubts in your mind don’t let them stop you!!’ It was seamless, safe and secure!! The ride itself was smooth - the take off, you don’t actually realise you had taken off till we got in the air - we had a beautiful clear day and managed to cruise to 4000 feet. The landing into Elvington Airfield was also extremely smooth!!! After packing away the balloon the glass of bubbly was very welcomed!!! Thankyou so much I would 100% book again with yourselves!!!

What an incredible experience with Yorkshire Balloon Flights! This was an amazing 40th birthday present and from receiving the voucher, it only took around 2 weeks to get booked onto a flight. Oliver and the whole team were absolutely fantastic — professional, friendly and great fun from start to finish. I loved that setting up and packing away the balloon was a real team effort and passengers were encouraged to get involved. It made the whole experience feel even more special. You can really tell how passionate Oliver is about his business, and hearing the story of how he got his pilot licence made the evening even more inspiring. From start to finish it was a truly unforgettable evening and an experience I would recommend to anyone. Thank you for such amazing memories!

An absolutely magical time from start to finish. Everyone from the office team, ground crew, to Oli, our pilot, were friendly, helpful and really enthusiastic about what they were doing. The flight itself was just so calm and peaceful and you were just mesmerised by everything around you. I can't recommend them enough.
