Deal overview
Do you want to discover new experiences and escapades? Are you curious and love acquiring skills in all areas? We are sure that this activity will delight you.
It’s a hot air balloon flight that we offer you, but not only that! In addition to flying over sumptuous landscapes, you also benefit from an introduction to hot air balloon piloting. A two in one that will make this experience a memorable and memorable moment that you will not soon forget.
With a passionate aeronaut, you will be able to learn everything about how the hot air balloon works, as well as its preparation and piloting. This aircraft will no longer have any secrets for you. Explanations and demonstrations will be given to you during the briefing, but also during the flight, by the aeronaut who will accompany you throughout the activity.
On the day of the activity, you will join the aeronaut at the meeting place that he will have previously communicated to you. On site, you will be able to participate in the preparation of the balloon and the basket. You will then have a detailed briefing on not only the progress of the activity and the safety instructions, but also on the piloting techniques which you will use later.
Once installed on the basket, as well as all the other participants, takeoff will be imminent. You will leave from a site near the Château de Maintenon, whose name comes from the secret wife of Louis XIV. A place rich in history and mysteries. The higher you rise in the sky, the more you discover the surprising panoramas of the Eure-et-Loir department. This flight lasts one hour, during which your balloonist will let you handle the hot air balloon for a few moments. This will be the highlight of the activity for you!
After admiring the castles, woods, small villages and wildlife of the region, takeoff will take place on a flat surface. A follower car will be waiting for you right next to the landing location, so that it can take you to the departure location, after assisting the team in storing the hot air balloon.
It's a remarkable adventure that awaits you, so reserve your place now to become a balloonist for half a day.
