5.00The most perfect day was made possible by Algarve Balloons - I proposed to my partner and Helena and the crew were so comforting. The technical knowledge was present throughout the set up and flight, and Helena helped organize a tremendous surprise. Thank you Helena and Daniel!

5.00Frankly perfect! A wonderful day, a breathtaking view and a wonderful team 😍 I highly recommend, they are very pro and put good mood and joy in the gondola 😁 and what about the snack after the flight? Perfect too 😁 In short, go with your eyes closed! (But keep property open 😉)

5.00An amazing early morning experience drifting across the Algarve countryside. From the moment we arrived in the darkness of early morning, through the inflation of the balloon and the takeoff as the sun was rising we had a wonderful experience. The views from the sky were breathtaking and the entire trip was spectacular. We had great fun participating in the inflation of the balloon and again as it was packed away after a very smooth landing. Afterwards we were treated to a beautiful breakfast by the crew. While the trip is great fun it is important to point out that a key part of the experience is the emphasis on safety. This makes the experience all the more enjoyable. While our trip was cut a little short by the fickle Algarve breezes we were offered an opportunity to fly again on a future trip and we can’t wait! Highly recommended !!!
Outstanding experience

5.00What an amazing morning we had with Helena and her team! Great sunrise flight. Breathtaking views over the area we live , lovely to experience a different perspective. The team were fabulous and Helena and Daniel were awesome pilots. Helena is very generous with her knowledge as we flew around and answering lots of questions. The whole experience was concluded by a delicious champagne picnic feast.

5.00Our family had the best experience with the whole crew of Algarve Balloons. It started with a warm welcome, continued with an expert flight crew and ended with a traditional Portuguese breakfast- champagne toast and all! It was well worth the early wake up to see the sun rise and get the best view of the Algarve. I could go on, but our family of 5 highly recommends this experience. Thank you Helena and Crew!

5.00For the first time we sailed in a hot air balloon. Before dawn we met Helena and her crew at the departure point. After preparing the balloon and a clear explanation of the procedures, we took off. What a wonderful experience. So quiet floating. There was very little wind so we only covered a short distance. That didn’t make the experience any less. The view was beautiful and the landing was soft. Helena was very professional, you can see that she has a lot of experience. After cleaning up the balloon we had a nice picnic with the crew, a real icing on the cake.
A truly memorable experience
