Balloon Flight info

A few tips you need to know to enjoy your hot-air balloon flight:

  • Do ensure you are fit to fly, for example you would not be able to fly with heart problems, back problems, if you were pregnant etc. Please check with your doctor & flight operator if you are uncertain if you should fly in a balloon
  • Children are allowed to fly over 10 years of age, or with parents written release of liability
  • Do wear layers of clothes it is often quite cool in the early mornings in the Tuscan countryside
  • Do wear flat and comfortable shoes (waterproof shoes are best as grass is often damp in the early mornings) and we may land in the middle of a huge field
  • The Pilot is in charge of the aircraft, please follow his instructions and do listen to the passenger briefing which includes safety information and your landing position requirements
  • Do make sure you are on time - the balloon cannot wait for you!
  • Do telephone the balloon passenger's hot line (+39) 055 8077940 or mobile (+39) 335 6233934 to get up to date information prior to your flight
  • Passengers must telephone us the evening before the flight for final confirmation
  • Do remember that about 80% of all balloon flights end up with the basket lying on it's side - this is perfectly normal
  • Do remember that ballooning is proven to be the safest form of aviation and...

...Have a great flight!

Directions

The launch site is situated along the Via del Chianti, 1 km from the village Tavarnelle, next to the ancient Chiostrini spring.

How to get there:

  • From the Motorway A1 exit at "Firenze Certosa".
  • After the toll gate at the roundabout turn right onto the superstrada "Raccordo Siena- Firenze".
  • Take 4th exit signed to San Donato
  • Turn right immediately towards Morrocco - Tavarnelle.
  • After approx. 2 miles and having passed the few houses of Morrocco, on a downhill straight stretch of road look for a small road on your left between tall trees.
    It is marked by a white square sign with the word Balloon in black.
  • Turn left down this lane and after 30 meters you will arrive at the "Chianti Balloon Port".

If you find that you are approaching the first houses of the village Tavarnelle, you have gone too far! Turn round and keep an eye to your right, and you will see the grass field down on your right with the small wooden club house of the "Chianti Balloon Port".
