Dawn or dusk, your flight will be tranquil yet exhilarating. Experience flying like never before, see and hear things you wouldn’t imagine.

Flights generally last between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on the wind. Please allow 3-4 hours for your excursion.

During April to September we launch just after dawn or 2 hours before sunset, avoiding the unstable daytime “thermal” winds.

From October to March this is not a problem and we fly mid-morning or mid-afternoon.

Ballooning is a participation sport. Please be prepared to help with the inflation and packing away of the balloon.

You should wear clothes suitable for a walk in the countryside. Natural fibres are recommended for safety’s sake, with boots, flat shoes or trainers.

Family and friends may follow the balloon and it’s retrieve vehicle in their own cars. Upon landing please do not enter any land until permission has been obtained by the retrieve crew.

When the balloon has been packed away, we will celebrate your first flight with a certificate and champagne toast. Passengers will then be transported back to the launch site in an air conditioned 4x4 vehicle if required.

Belvoir Balloons can carry up to 5 passengers. Our aim is to give you a fun flight and magical experience, with safety! Please bear with us if the British weather does not co-operate. We cannot guarantee that flights booked on a specific date will take place on that date.
