Hot air balloon flights close to Athens    

Athens Hot air balloon flights

Hot air balloon flights are big in Athens, and you may enjoy this unique interest now. Even though several people have never even been up close to a air balloon, those who have floated away in one remember this fantastic experience for life!

Hot air balloon flights can be had by young and old alike. Most charters last roughly an hour, but check with your pilot to find out what's available. Some have different flights to buy from.

A long time ago someone wrote a balloonists prayer, and we've used it in the post flight ceremonies ever since:

The winds have welcomed you with softness
The sun has held you in his warm hands
You have flown so high and so well
That God has joined you in your laughter
And set you gently back down
Into the loving arms of Mother Earth.

What is it like flying in a balloon?

You'll be amazed the first time you go for a balloon ride! The feeling is unlike anything else. It is very calm and serene, and not frightening at all. The view is spectacular, and depending on the location of your balloon flight, you're likely to see local wildlife as never before. It is very quiet except for the occasional WHOOOSH of the burner, and you can talk to people on the ground!

The 360 degree view is spectacular as you drift silently above the world. You may brush gently through the treetops or soar thousands of feet above the earth; either way you'll be thrilled at the peace and serenity of your adventure.

As you search for Hot air balloon flights in Athens, keep in mind that your flight might be rescheduled if conditions are unflyable. Don't expect to fly if it is unstable or windy. Bring your camera and plenty of film, because you'll snap many more photos than you require.
