as the “City of Hundred Spires,” as you’ll see
these spires in a completely new way. Prague’s interesting
landmarks and amazing monuments are perfect for this type of experience.
Choose from two flights:
- Prague Center Balloon Flight. This glides over the main sights
and attractions of Prague. You will experience incredible views
that will create lasting memories.
- Prague Outskirts Balloon Flight. This flight is a journey over
the countryside surrounding Prague, including either the Karlstejn
Castle or Konopiste Castle. What a way to see something new!
Flights are operated by experienced professionals and competent
pilots with up to 20 years of experience. So don’t be nervous!
You are in good hands. The company has 18 balloons in a variety
of sizes and colors. Each can hold up to 2-6 people, so it is definitely
ideal for someone looking for something a little romance on their
European vacation!
However, keep in mind that flights will only occur when weather
is permittable for safety reasons.
After your flight, you will enjoy some nice refreshments and a
traditional ceremony to welcome you to the balloon fraternity.
