Top Florence Hot Air Balloon Rides

This was hands down one of the most memorable experiences of my life. The company went out of its way to find a location to ensure more optimal weather for the ride. It was so serene to fly up and down and see Tuscany from air. The ride was incredibly smooth as was the landing. This was a bucket list experience for me and it delivered. Would absolutely recommend booking this ride.

My wife and I booked this experience as part of our visit to Florence. Originally we booked the flight that was supposed to go over parts of the city and then go to the countryside, but the wind conditions didn't allow flying over the city so we ended up flying over the Chianti valley. The company was completely fair, in allowing us to cancel due to the change in plan, and once we decided to still go, refunded the difference in prices between the two experiences, which are priced differently. They also arranged a pick-up from our hotel (inside the Florence ZTL) to the take-off field (and back). The flight itself was lots of fun. Some amazing views of the countryside at dawn, and the crew and pilot were very experienced and professional. I was impressed by how organized everything was, how safe it felt, and how they did everything efficiently while still being very warm and friendly. This was our first balloon ride and it was wonderful. I'd happily recommend the experience and the company to others.

LOVED THIS! Highly recommend! This was a highlight of our trip, we were all very excited to do it and we weren’t disappointed a bit. We were picked up promptly at 5:45am by a very friendly driver, driven to the launch site where we had to wait approximately 15 min. We did this in early May and it was beautiful and such a good experience, but it was cold while we were waiting to get on. We were all wearing jeans/leggings with sweatshirts and a jean jacket and still cold. But once we were on board, the flame warmed us up and it was a pleasant temperature. The pilot was very friendly and made it a very pleasant trip. When we landed we were brought to an outdoor area (thankfully it had warmed up to a comfortable temperature) where we had some champagne, pastries, cheese and meats. We also had an opportunity to buy pictures or a video (taken by a drone) of us in the air. It was such a good experience!
