Price: € 315,00
Discover and experience the beauties of Upper Austria's largest cities from a bird's perspective. Hanging in the basket on the large balloon, you slowly watch the spectators become smaller and smaller as you ascend, and are finally completely blocked out by the incredible scenic beauty. The different air currents are used by our experienced pilots to manoeuvre in the air and are the basis for your sightseeing at breathtaking heights. You will be surprised what a picture the surroundings of Wels, Linz or Steyr make from the air.
Services and benefits:
- Balloon ride for approx. 1.5 hours
- Joint setup of the balloon
- Transport back to the launch site
Baptism of the balloonists: Once back home, it is traditional to award the first balloonists for their courage. Just as the first balloonists were raised to the peerage by the King of France, we will award them a balloonist's title of nobility.
Physical requirements:
Children are allowed to ride from a height of 1.10 metres.
Important information:
The peak season is from April - October.
For an early morning balloon ride, the meeting point is at sunrise; an evening balloon ride takes place about three hours before sunset.
Weather:
Of course, like many other outdoor activities, ballooning is very weather-dependent. Balloons are only launched in suitable weather. This means: when the wind speed is below 8 knots (the legal limit for commercial balloon rides) and visibility is good. We cannot launch in precipitation. We take the weather very seriously and the customer is king with us. This means: If there is no safety aspect against a balloon ride, but the visibility is very poor or it is very cloudy, you decide whether to take off or whether another date should be arranged.
Duration:
The journey itself takes a good 1.5h - but for everything around you take around 4-5h.
Location:
Wels
Price info:
Groups of 8 or more on request.
Group size:
up to 8 persons - for larger groups on request
Spectators / accompanying persons:
Spectators are welcome to watch the setup of the balloon and the launch.
Equipment / clothing:
It is recommended that you dress according to the season, as if you were going for a walk. But be sure to take a waistcoat with you. And good footwear is important, because you may have to walk across a field after landing. For cosy ballooning in winter, it is important to wear warm shoes and trousers.
Flexibility:
You can gift the greatest possible flexibility with a voucher.
