Flying for approximately one hour in the magnificent High Country and returning to Highton Manor for a delicious champagne breakfast.
We meet at Highton Manor half an hour before sunrise (you will be advised of the exact time on your confirmation sheet). Whilst having a cup of tea or coffee your pilot will give you a short briefing. You will then be transported to the launch site where you may help with the launch, or stand back and take pictures. Then away we go, floating gently over the countryside in our beautiful balloon.
Your flight will last for approximately one hour. After we make our final landing and pack the balloon away, we head back to the Highton Manor where you can celebrate your morning over breakfast.
What to wear and what to bring
Ballooning is an audience participation activity and you will be encouraged to assist with the set up and pack away of the balloon. It is an active morning in the outdoors, so wear clothes that can get stained or dirty.
Please note: The burners can sometimes drip water mixed with Carbon. Global Ballooning will not be responsible for clothing that is stained or damaged as a part of our adventure activity.
Wear clothes as for hiking, including sturdy shoes, warm socks and a cap, plus sunglasses if you wish.
- We meet before sunrise so depending on the time of year and weather, it can be extremely cold
- Generally it will not be any colder in the air during the flight than on the ground, so wear layered clothing that can be removed as the day warms up
- The burners can radiate heat so a hat is recommended
- Your feet can get wet and cold in the early morning dew, you may like to bring a change of socks
- High-heeled shoes are not suitable
- DON'T FORGET TO BRING YOUR CAMERA AND LOTS OF FILM
