Wonderful experience with my teenager
I surprised my teenage daughter with this trip and what an experience! Communication before the trip was clear and easy, pickup was on time, comfortable, and seamless, and the ride was gorgeous! Guide was warm, funny, and skilled and we made lifetime memories!

Amazing!
I already had three flights with this team and only in Vytautas' hands I feel safe, even though I am very afraid of heights. Vytautas' professionalism is fascinating, and the stories he tells are enchanting. Thank you for the unforgettable moments!

The hot air balloon flight with Vytautas over Trakai Castle was truly an unforgettable experience! The early morning takeoff created a very special atmosphere – the rising sun, light mist over the lakes, and the breathtaking view of Trakų pilis looked like something straight out of a postcard. Vytautas is a very professional, calm, and friendly pilot, which made us feel completely safe throughout the entire flight and allowed us to fully enjoy every moment. The ride was smooth and filled with wonderful emotions. The views over Trakai were absolutely breathtaking – one of the most beautiful experiences. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a special gift or wanting to experience something truly memorable. It is a morning I will remember for a very long time! 🎈

The most memorable and beautiful experience I have had in many years of traveling.
I was hoping to see and photograph the beautiful lakes and historic Trakai castle. Taking a hot air balloon was the PERFECT way to do that. The excellent staff spoke about safety and flying etiquette, as well as the history of ballooning. The weather was perfect, as was the experience. I cannot wait to go on another ballooning excursion.
Operator response
Dear Anthony, Thank you again! Glad that our plan to fly over the castle worked so well and you enjoyed the flight. Hope to see you again!

My first balloon ride
Awesome! Beautiful, magical. Great captain - I’m not good with heights and was nervous but I never had a moment of anxiety during the flight. Countryside at dusk was stunning. Clouds, lakes, the castle. All 9 of us were so happy with this experience. Highly recommend. Champagne at the end was a great finale!
