The Flight
The launch site you choose depends on the kind of experience you wish to have.
Henley-on-Thames offers glorious views of the river, the historic market town, and the beautiful Chiltern Hills
Oxford, with its spectacular architecture and ‘dreaming spires’ combines a city flight with the charm of the Oxfordshire countryside.
Both flights are equally magical, and the choice is yours!
Be it a gift or indulgence, this is an adventure everyone dreams of
experiencing.

The Meeting
The meeting time for the flight varies with the changing seasons. In the summer we fly early morning before the thermals develop and then early evening as we must wait for the day to cool and the thermals to die down. In the autumn and winter we launch in the late morning and early afternoon in order to land safely before dusk. At the appointed meeting time, the passengers, crew and pilot will assemble at the launch site. The balloon is inflated with the passengers present, as it is all part of the experience and excitement. You are more than welcome to lend a hand in putting the balloon up, with the pilot and crew's guidance.

Cameras Welcome
As the balloon travels with the wind, the basket is very steady and makes a wonderful platform for photography. You are very welcome to bring cameras and videos to record your experience, but please hold on to them tightly as we cannot take responsibility for loss or damage. We also have a camera which we can remote from the basket and take an in-flight photo. These can be purchased after your flight.
