5.00What an experience! The most beautiful views and cool to see Tuscany from above. The pilot and team were incredible- capable, friendly and funny. We had the best time and would recommend!
Wonderful experience coming from Relais Toscano, Asciano

5.00Wonderful experience, even I had to wake up at 5am. We had to change the departure from Siena to Florence, because of the weather conditions. The way from Relais Toscano, Asciano (Siena province) was very foggy, but we managed to be in time.
Absolutely an experience not to miss

5.00They do a great job in making sure that the flight will be safe, gauging the weather and letting you know if it has to be canceled or moved to a new location. While a new location can be inconvenient it is for your safety. I appreciate the care they take. The experience was extraordinary. The staff was very helpful and they treat you with kindness and respect.

5.00Honestly, I don’t know where to begin… the whole experience was just amazing. Renato must have grown tired of my endless messages looking for reassurance that our booking was all in order just to make sure nothing went wrong, but he always replied immediately, reassuring us that it would all run like clockwork. We were collected at 6.15 am from our hotel in Siena by the lovely Andrea who took us on a 40 minute journey north to a field in the middle of nowhere where we watched like curious children at two balloons which lay on the grass ready to come to life. Every step was fascinating, and we were able to capture it with endless photographs we can’t stop looking at now. Another lovely chap by the name of Jacob welcomed us like royalty- “Everyone is here for you, we wan’t you to enjoy your special day…” The lovely Allie, our pilot, invited us to climb into the basket, took us through safety procedures and made sure very second of the flight went like clockwork. Her calm confidence meant we instantly felt safe… and on a perfect landing she, along with the team, served us celebratory prosecco and a variety of edible treats to round off the morning. The lovely Andrea allowed us to watch as everything was packed away, an operation in itself, and he took us home, giddy on what we’d just experienced with this amazing team. We can’t thank you enough. It was worth every penny to glide serenely through the sky, watching the world come quietly to life below…
Peaceful drift

5.00Breathtakingly beautiful! The entire experience from beginning to the end was heavenly. Thanks to Pilot Allie we had the best views of Siena. My fear of heights went away with the confidence of Allie. And, the champagne breakfast was perfect.
WORTH IT - check hot air balloon ride off your bucket list.

5.00Worth it! Worth it! Worth it! - do not hesitate on this - we had such an amazing experience. It was honestly a highlight of our trip to italy - and that is saying something. The team was so professional and knowledgeable - there were people in our balloon that were a little intimidated at first but the staff eased all of the fears away. the views from above the region are breathtaking - the beauty of the rolling hills, the farm lands and vineyards are the stuff of dreams. all while gently gliding in the comfort of a big basket. the team is very communicative and lets you know the details for take off the day before you go. honestly if you are on the fence, do your self a favor and book it. it is unlike anything i have ever done

5.00Very capable balloon operators. I felt safe the entire time! The views were gorgeous. We even saw deer running across several fields. A beautiful experience. Some agility needed to get into the basket , but I'm 74 and made it pretty easily.
Pure poetry

5.00Beautiful experience. The staff very prepared and scrupulous; the directions on where to leave have changed in recent days several times for continuous monitoring of weather conditions and winds. The flyover of the Crete Senesi at dawn is pure poetry that cannot be described but only experienced. Very kind and very nice all the guys of the staff, from the pilot to those left on the ground who recovered us at the landing. The experience ended with a toast and an excellent breakfast with typical Tuscan products. I absolutely recommend it especially for the seriousness (immediate answers from the first contact for information despite the fact that we were in mid-August) and the security guarantees that you have for the business that has been managed for several years now. Absolutely recommend.
Fantastic 😍
