What you can expect

From the sky, you will enjoy unforgettable landscapes, which are difficult to describe, from a completely new perspective during an exciting hot air balloon flight at the foot of Mount Etna. The experience is available either as an individual ticket for a shared group flight or as a private flight for up to 5 people, depending on the option selected.

The flight takes place at sunrise or sunset, the most picturesque times of the day, when the light enhances the beauty of the landscape.

You will fly at a low altitude over volcanic territories and unspoiled nature, enjoying a unique experience amidst silence and spectacular views. The balloon moves with the wind, and the pilot can only vary the altitude to follow the currents.

The experience begins with an introductory briefing during which the pilot explains how the balloon is assembled and the dynamics of the flight. The total duration is approximately 3 hours, of which about 1 hour is actual flight time, and the route may vary depending on weather conditions. At the end, there is a farewell drink and the certificate is issued.

Two types of experience are available:
Shared flight coupon: this experience is purchased in the form of a coupon for the hot air balloon flight (valid for the midweek or weekend option) that is valid for 18 months from the date selected at the time of purchase. The date chosen when booking is not final: you will need to contact our office to arrange and confirm the actual date of the flight, depending on availability and weather conditions.

Exclusive private flight coupon: a private experience for up to 5 people, ideal for enjoying an even more special moment in total privacy. For this option as well, the date selected at the time of purchase is not final and must be subsequently confirmed with our office, based on availability and weather conditions

Capacity: up to 5 people (shared or exclusive flight depending on the option chosen)
