Rise up to an altitude of 2,000 feet (610 meters) and gaze down at a stunning tableau of rolling hills, swooping valleys and snow-capped Alpine spires. Enjoy birds-eye views of the serpentine Adda River and the ancient fortresses, Castello di Pizzighettone and Castello di San Colombabno. 

Relish the individuality of each ride as you float wherever the wind takes you. Upon landing, toast your exhilarating experience with a glass of sparkling wine or juice and chat among your fellow passengers. Return to the launch site and relax during the journey to central Milan, where the tour concludes.

Our hot air balloon ride experience...
Steven N, Aug 2015
Our hot air balloon ride experience was outstanding thanks to our pilot Guido Montemurro. His professional dedication to safety and first class service was evident from the moment he picked us up at our Milan accommodation and all through our incredible morning together. Guido has competed in international balloon events as part of Balloon Team Italia and is a great ambassador for his sport. He brings good cheer to all who shared a welcoming wave and I would highly recommend this tour with Guido.

The balloon team was excellent in working with us to reschedule to fit our itinerary and allowed us to participate outside of Florence a few days later while we were there and that was amazing. Would highly recommend the balloon team italia, especially down south. Milan's nice, Tuscany's better.

Sylvie_M, Nov 2021
Le vol a été tout simplement annulé par le tour opérateur et nous l’avons su à 17 h le jour d’avant alors que le vol était prévu pour 7 h le jour suivant et l’annulation est arrivée après plusieurs coups de fils de notre part pour savoir ce qu’il en était… Nous restons dans l’attente du remboursement de la prestation
Response from Host, Nov 2021
All Flights are canceled for safety after receiving afternoon weather reports the day before the flight. With the fog you don't fly. Safety first of all. Refunds arrive after a few days directly from the agency where the booking was made. You cannot write a review if you have not tried the experience, it is inappropriate and incorrect. Good day
