Feel your excitement heighten as the roaring gas flame surges into life and you begin to float high into the sky.

Gaze at the gorgeous Andalusian countryside that surrounds the city of Seville and observe the ground for legendary landmarks like Seville Cathedral and the Royal Alcazar Palace. Listen as you guide provides captivating commentary of the structures scattered below. See the natural splendor of Doñana Natural Park; the picturesque pine woods of Aznalcázar; and the blissful banks of the Guadiamar River.

Descend to dry land and return to the minivan to travel to a rustic eatery for a traditional Andalusian breakfast. Tantalize your taste buds with creamy cheeses, cured meats, fresh fruit and crunchy cereals then toast a glass of luxurious champagne to your exhilarating excursion.

Bid your guide and group farewell when you return to your Seville hotel.

Not perfect but recommended

Eric_G, Aug 2024
It took a long time for them to find us and come pick us up when we landed. By that time, the sun was up and it was quite hot, and we were tired and hungry. The crew also requested our help getting the balloon loaded into the trailer. Overall, a good experience but not nearly as streamlined as when I flew in NY. Still recommended. Good, friendly, safe. Amazing way to see Sevilla.

Fantastic experience! The people were totally professional, experienced, and gracious. For start to finish a wonderful time. Highly recommended! Everyone should do this at least once in their lifetime if they have the chance and do so with this company. They are totally customer service oriented and dedicated to providing an optimal experience for their balloon riders.

A life time experience

Pascal_W, Oct 2021
What a wonderful experience. We were picked up at the location and after an hour drive we arrived at the field where we could see the crew preparing the baloon. Our pilot was wonderful and even decended into an old copper mine, now full of blue water. If you ever wanted to go on a baloon flight, we highly recommend this organisation.

Up , Up, and Away !

It was my husbands 1st time on a Hot Air Balloon. He really enjoyed it & absolutely loved how relaxing and smooth the ride went. I loved it too!👍

Family balloon trip

nigelandlizzie, Oct 2019
We visited Saville as a family of four - two boys of -: and 11. The preinfo was fantastic and really well organised. We were in great hands throughout and the whole team was very professional. The trip in the ballon was wonderful and lived up to expectations! The post flight breakfast was a bit disappointing and the team would do better to give you a small snack whilst they pack up the balloon - but we would still do it again!

Best Experience Ever!

rlojogger, May 2019
My wife and I weren't sure what to expect. We were picked up early in the morning by Juanma and transported to another hotel where we met the rest of the group and offered coffee, tea and light snacks. We then traveled another 5 miles or so to a location where Juanma and his team conducted a couple tests using small balloons and a light to determine whether the site was good for flight. After confirming that the site was good, we traveled a short distance to field where the flight began. We got to witness and participate in the entire process used to prepare the basket and inflate the balloon. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! After we received a pre-flight brief, we loaded into the basket and floated up to good observation altitude and began experiencing life on a hot-air balloon. The sites of the Spanish country-side were spectacular. Our pilot adjusted the altitude several times, so that we could take pictures and really enjoy the experience. After a little over an hours we landed softly next to a huge sunflower field. Following the flight we were transported back to the meeting hotel and provided a very nice buffet type breakfast. After saying goodbye to our new friends, we were transported back to our hotel. Clearly one of life's incredible moments. Thank you Juanma and you team!!

SANJIV_P, Aug 2018
Initially we were little apprehensive but the professionalism of the pilot Manuel Vicente and his team was amazing -- right from hotel pick-up to flying and dropping back. He had a wonderful sense of humour. All of us including my wife and daughter throroughly enjoyed the flight. It was one the most memorable experiences watching the moon setting in the west and sun rising in the east simultaneously over the water bodies and hillocks. The breakfast was also very good. Thanks for everything.

Megan C, Jan 2018
This experience exceeded our expectaions with Gloobo. Not only was the staff professional and personable, they did an amazing job explaining the process and making you a huge part of it. Hotel pickup and drop off, coffee, brunch, pictures and videos, and an awesome champagne baptism were all part of this wonderful experience. The actual balloon ride lasted about and 1 hour and 30 minutes and we took off right as the sun started to rise. I can not say enough how great this company is! Would do it again if I return to Sevilla!

Courtney B, Jul 2017
The weather leading up to the day of my booking was very uncertain, but the agency made sure that I could fly as planned, albeit in a distant location. After a few hours of driving, we were able to take flight in Cadiz and slowly make our way around the town. The time between landing and taking the car ride to the breakfast location could have been shorter, but overall the experience was enjoyable. Furthermore, the instructions about the process of the flight, the agenda for the day, and the finishing story could have been clearer.

Sherry W, Jul 2017
This was an amazing experience, we celebrated my husband's 50th birthday and the pilot surprised us with some Cava while in flight. After a peaceful flight in air enjoying the Seville scenery, we headed for breakfast as a group. The guys were all very friendly, professional and make the experience memorable.

Hunt, Jul 2017
My two teenage granddaughters and I took this balloon ride in June 2017 as part of our three week tour of Spain. Asked at the end of our trip what the highlight was they both said the hot air balloon ride. Those interested in this trip should be prepared to wake up early. We were picked up at our hotel at 4:40 AM and taken to the countryside for the balloon launch. We got off the ground at around 7:00 AM as the sun was rising over the golden sunflower and wheat fields around Seville. It was a peaceful and memorable float above the fields and small towns around Seville. Our landing was soft and flawless between two fields of sunflowers. It couldn't have been better. The tour operators were prompt and professional. We had a nice breakfast buffet at a hotel after the flight followed by the awarding of certificates and champaign baptism of each of the 10 passengers. Transport back to the hotel was timely. If you're in Seville and have the time, money and desire I would highly recommend this trip.

Was more than we expected, is super safe, the staff were very serious and concern in what it means safety and the pilot really makes us laugh, you won't be disappointed, it's an experience of a lifetime.

Hardeep M, May 2016
If you're in Seville for a few days, you have to book this. Some of you may be thinking, hmmm it's a bit pricey, but I can assure you it's well worth it. The ride itself is amazing, you see some spectacular views. And the team really do look after you - I was picked up from my hotel in the morning, and dropped off after no problems. Just book it.

This tour was absolutely amazing, the perfect way for us to end our Seville trip. Not only were the views breathtaking, but the service level provided was impeccable. It's not just a tour in the air, it's an experience from start to finish that matches no other experience we have had in our life.

Caitlin E, Mar 2015
To be honest, I was a little afraid before going, but when you're in the air it is so tranquil and easy, not to mention BEAUTIFUL!! As someone who hates airplanes, I was surprised to be so at ease! The team was also great and accommodated us being the only English-speaking people on the tour.

Haley R, Jan 2015
Easily one of the best mornings I have had! The staff is as friendly as possible, and extremely accommodating and enthusiastic. You get to watch and partake in the set-up process of the balloon... and I would've paid just to do that! The flight is obviously a one-of-a-kind experience, and a must-do if you've ever wanted to ride in a hot air balloon. Just when you think your adventure is up, you're treated to a magnificent lunch... you're in for a surprise!!

Courtney R, Jun 2014
Wonderful experience! The company was personable and accommodating in every way! Pictures were taken along the way, questions about Seville were answered, and so much more! It was a great experience that I will for sure do again when I come back:)! Being "baptized" with Champagne and receiving certificates was a fun touch after the traditional breakfast we received! Add it to your list of must dos:)

Steven M, May 2014
We spent a few days in Seville for my wife's birthday. What better way to round off the trip than with an air balloon flight! We had a fantastic balloon ride that lasted approximatelky 1 hour 30 minutes. Our day started at 6:00am with a prompt collection from the apartment we rented in the centre of Seville. After a short (30 mins) drive with Alfonzo we were met the rest of the ballooning team and fellow passengers for a coffee at a hotel near one of the the take off sites. By 8am and just after sunrise we were in the air having watched the balloon inflation with great interest. We had wonderful views from varying hights and landed gently after a lovely balloon ride, for which we felt totally safe and and confident in our pilot's capabilities (not bad as I strugglke with heights!). Nothing was too much for the team who all spoke pefect English and the three of them were jolly yet professional through the whole event. They joined us for a good breakfast afterwards back at the hotel (included in the price) and then we were dropped back at our Seville apartment by lunchtime lunch to enjoy the rest of our day. I would thoroughly recommend this experience for a special occasion if you are staying in the Seville area.

Ricky T, Mar 2014
This excursion was fantastic!! We had a great time. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and got everyone involved in the whole day, including translating the story about the hot air balloons into English for us. The views were incredible and a glass of champagne a the height of the flight was a very nice touch. The breakfast was outstanding. The staff uploaded pictures to a file sharing website for free, within an hour of the excursion. Would love to do this again, can't recommend highly enough.

NP B, Oct 2013
The trip was excellent!!!! From the initial stage of booking with Viator to being picked up by the organisers. Communication was excellent, received several emails and text messages from the organisers prior to the day. They were extremely polite and made our trip one to be remembered. I would have no hesitation in recommending this delightful trip.
