    Exciting event conducted by very friendly and professional staff. We were even offered another free flight at some other time because we were 5 minutes short of the promised full hour flight time (yep, we really were 55 minutes in the air!) and we did not quite make it to the vineyards due to wind conditions. Now that's a nice one !

    All good - they even offered us another flight as we didn't go as high as the company expected!

    For someone who does not like heights I had a wonderful day and thoughly enjoyed going up through the clouds to see that wonderful blue sky. I felt very comfortable with the expertise of the pilot who reall made everyone on board feel at ease. I thank you and the team very much for a great time.

    It was definitely worth a try. Much different to all the other experiences I have had in the past (i.e. caving, sky diving, scuba diving, hang gliding and bungy jumping), however this is definitely an experience for all ages whether young or old. It might not excite you as much if you're an extreme sporting type of person, but if you love nature you will surely enjoy this!

    This was an amazing experience from start to finish! The company was extremely well organised and made everything easy and stress free. The balloon flight, set up and pack up was such an enjoyable time and finishing off the experience with a beautifully cooked breakfast in gorgeous surrounds and a glass of bubbly - just perfect!

    Everything was fantastic. I was very impressed with the professional attitude towards making sure that the winds were all ok , made me feel safe. I loved it so much I want to go again but I would like to go longer. My husband and I own an aircraft and fly all the time but that was so peaceful and I relaxed which has been hard to do as we own two businesses and find it hard to have time out. So a big thanks to Graham and please pass on that we enjoyed our conversation with him over his breakfast....

    We enjoyed the whole experience from watching the balloon being inflated, to the actual ride and even had loads of fun deflating the balloon and helping to to be packed away. Needless the say, the breakfast was fabulous too. We also found the staff very friendly and explained everything very well. Cant wait to do it again.
