Your pilot, Bruno Baroux, will welcome you with unmatched warmth for a journey between heaven and earth.
Bruno is a true sky traveller. Passionate about air sports in general, he ultimately chose hot air ballooning to share the magic of flights that are both serene and spectacular above Beaune, Dijon or Chalon-sur-Saône! His experience - 2,400 flight hours including 1,100 in a hot air balloon - guarantees you a safe and carefree flight, with his team following the balloon by 4×4 to return you to the starting point after your flight.
Moreover, your pilot holds the 'Night Flight' qualification. Whatever your desires, he'll propose an adventure that meets your expectations (no pun intended!)
The Côte-d'Or is an ideal destination for a hot air balloon baptism. Benefiting from unique natural surroundings and rich cultural heritage, the city of Beaune (classified as a City of Art and History) and its surroundings will take your breath away. And although the wind dictates the balloon's path, you're guaranteed to fly over stunning landscapes. At the mercy of air currents, you might discover:
• The Château du Clos de Vougeot and its Renaissance architecture
• The Hôtel-Dieu (Hospices de Beaune) with its typical Burgundian style
• The Palace of the Dukes of Dijon
• The vineyards of Burgundy
• The streams and glittering Bouzaise which springs east of the city
Every flight is unique. Gifting a hot air balloon flight guarantees you won't disappoint. For a romantic gift, note that Beaune Montgolfière offers an exclusive package for couples. At dawn or early evening, with champagne on board, treat yourselves to seventh heaven aboard this flying balcony. It's a gift the lucky recipient will never forget!
Seeing the earth from the sky... can you imagine the sensation? This experience awakens all your senses. The landscapes of course, but also the smell of the countryside, the sound of the burner, the traditional toast with aeronauts after landing...
You'll also have the opportunity to ask all your questions about ballooning and witness the equipment preparations with the professional team. Beaune Montgolfière is also a Pilot Training School for Burgundians who wish to turn this dream into a profession!
