4.00The experience with the hot air balloon was very nice , nice and preracked staff and an exciting flight . me and my filgia were very happy. however communication with Viator was complicated we thought we would be picked up by Ballon staff directly at the farm but only by chance we found that the pick up was not provided in the price paid despite it was written on the voucher and we had to reorganize ourselves. advice to pay close attention to the information of viator
It's a must!! Don't hesitate even for a minute!!

5.00It was a truly unique gift. A trip to take at least once in a lifetime. The weather conditions were perfect! A beautiful sunrise with a unique panorama. We climbed very high equal to Monte Subasio. The excellent skill of the pilot Peter meant that the landing was perfect. The professionalism also of the very experienced and close-knit team. Very nice also the breakfast provided at the Dionigi Winery with excellent wines and excellent dishes. Advice.
Highly recommended and will be one of the highlights of your trip to Italy

5.00Flying with Ballon Adventures was a truly perfect experience! The very nice pilot described in detail the operation of the balloon and everything we could admire from up there. He and the crew showed the utmost professionalism and were very precise in the organization. The weather gave us a day with maximum visibility and excellent wind. The actual flight lasted about an hour and upon landing we enjoyed a breakfast with wine tasting in the nearby winery. Also the stay at the Residence of the pilot was magnificent: brand new apartment, really equipped with everything and with pool outside the window. Highly recommended experience!!!

Birthday in a hot air balloon

5.00Gifted as a birthday for my granddaughter, made small group in family of 5. Everything perfectly organized, in every detail. Exciting experience in a privileged setting of the countryside in front of Assisi. Exceptional skill of the pilot, who managed to take us one meter from the flowering field of sunflowers and then climb up in altitude. Nice also the idea of the hearty and quality breakfast at the Dionigi Winery. For us, of Hungarian origin, also the thrill of learning that the pilot, Pèter, is Hungarian! Thank you very much for everything, experience that I recommend and would like to relive in other seasons and occasions
A wonderful experience on a hot air balloon.

5.00An absolutely fantastic day out from start to finish! Very fascinating to watch the balloon getting set up and then an amazing couple of hours in the air with very informative and helpful commentary from the marvellous Captain Peter. With all returned to the Villa for a fantastic breakfast complete with winetasting and a tour of the winery. One of the most perfect days I’ve had on holiday.
