Hot Air Balloon Flight from Cornwall

Highlights

  • Meet your crew for a safety briefing at the Homeleigh Garden Centre (morning flights) or The Kings Head at 5 Lanes (evening flights) in Launceston, before you embark on your 1-hour hot air balloon flight. Then, travel to the launch site, where you’ll have chance to watch the balloon being inflated. Hop aboard and hold on tight as you take off and float up high into the sky. Look down over the rolling hills and rugged coastal cliffs of Cornwall as you soar overhead and snap photos of the breath-taking aerial views. While in the air, listen to your pilot’s commentary as you fly over various villages and landmarks along the way and toast to an unforgettable experience with a glass of complimentary champagne as you witness the sunrise or sunset over Cornwall. As you come in to land, your return transfers will be waiting for you, but you can choose to watch or help as your balloon is folded and packed away. Finally, return to the meeting point to collect your personalized flight certificate – the perfect souvenir to show off to friends and family back home. Please note: the balloon flight takes approximately 1 hour, but the whole experience lasts 3-4 hours. It’s recommended that you dress for a walk at the time of year and you may also choose to bring a hat to protect your head from the heat of the burners. In case of bad weather, balloon flights will be cancelled.
