    An awesome panoramic view of Vang Vieng.

    Although it rained a bit before, we were very fortunate the skies cleaer up in time and wind conditions allowed the balloon to lift off. The 30-40mins ride was amazing as we floated around Vang Vieng and over the river. The operator was very skillful with the balloon and shared with us interesting lplaces looking down from above. Overall, we took a lot of high quality pictures, had great fun and memories from the trip.

    This air balloon...

    Cecile_J, Jun 2025
    This air balloon experience was priceless though we had to wait for some joiners from the other agency who came in late. The pilot seemed new and not yet so experienced since we had a rough landing & he seemed to have a hard time raising d balloon again from the rice field . We didnt reach so far compared to the other balloons but probably the pilot had a reason. Overall,it was an unforgettable experience..

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us. We’re glad to hear that the hot air balloon ride was unforgettable for you, even though there were some moments that affected the smoothness of the trip. We sincerely apologize for the delay at the start caused by late joiners from another agency. We understand this can be frustrating, and we will continue improving coordination to avoid such situations. Regarding the flight itself, our pilots follow strict safety procedures, and sometimes this means choosing a more conservative flight path depending on the wind conditions at that exact moment. Landings can also be a bit bumpy when the winds change near the ground, but safety always remains our top priority. We appreciate your understanding, and we’re glad that everything went well in the end. Thank you again for flying with us and for your thoughtful feedback. We hope to welcome you again in the future for an even smoother and more enjoyable experience.

    Very bad experience, very expensive and failed!

    Flight of 5 December: 2 seniors + 1 adult We were obviously unlucky because our hot air balloon could not rise like the others: we could see all the others much higher and impossible to climb with ours! In addition, we almost did not travel but did more or less on the spot: we were circling on a very small perimeter In short, we took hot air balloons in Burma, Turkey... and we have never known such a bad experience! The pilot (who spoke French), to whom we expressed our enormous disappointment on the return, agreed perfectly with our observation. He admitted that it was a "missed" flight: I think you can question him before he forgets this incident! There were three of us, so we paid 450 euros and unfortunately it was worthless. So much so that I appeal to the organisers (I do not want to know what is the responsibility of each one) to reimburse us to the extent that you consider suitable for such a failed service. I wish I could communicate on social media that you are at least an honest company that knows how to recognize its shortcomings. You know how to get in touch with me, I guess, if you want more details.

    Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience, and we are truly sorry that your December 5th flight did not meet your expectations, especially after your previous experiences in Myanmar and Turkey. We completely understand your disappointment regarding the altitude and the direction of the flight. After checking with our team and reviewing the technical data from that day, the wind conditions were stable but particular: at certain moments, the lower air currents did not allow the balloon to travel further in some directions. Despite this, the balloon reached a maximum altitude of about 730 meters and the total flight time was 42 minutes, which corresponds to the duration planned for this experience. However, we acknowledge that every flight is unique, and the feeling of movement can vary depending on the air currents available at the exact moment of take-off.
