Bath, famed for its Roman-built baths and stunning Georgian architecture, offers an astounding aerial perspective. Gazing down from your balloon, you'll witness the city’s famous honey-coloured stone structures, which have helped it earn a spot on UNESCO’s list of World Heritage Sites. The hot air balloon ride provides an amazing spectacle of the entire city, Royal Victoria Park, and the rolling hills of Somerset, adding to the surreal beauty of the flight.
Imagine floating over the birthplace of the most influential writer in English literature – William Shakespeare. This scenic Warwickshire town, with its charming river, stunning parks, and Tudor-style houses, gives you a completely unique perspective. The hot air balloon flight takes off from Stratford Racecourse and provides a magical journey across Shakespeare’s County.
York is a city rich in heritage and history. As your balloon lifts off, you'll see an exquisite blend of ancient and modern with medieval walls, the iconic York Minster, snaking, narrow lanes (known as 'The Shambles') contrasted with contemporary structures. This truly is an unmissable balloon flight!
The beauty of the Welsh landscape is no secret, and what better way to experience it than from a hot air balloon? The launch site in Llanarth provides you with panoramic views of the lush Usk Valley, the Black Mountains, and the Brecon Beacons. It’s an utterly tranquil and dreamlike flight, taking you over the land of song.
Last but certainly not least, we head north to Scotland. The city of Perth, located on the banks of the River Tay, is an ideal spot for ballooning.
