The City of Prague has a lot more to offer than just scenic views and magnificent castles that portray the city’s rich history, Gliding through the Bohemian skies to have a glimpse of all the castles and landmarks the city has to offer within an hour takes the entire experience many notches higher, pun intended. Balloon rides have become a craze in the Czech capital lately, for tourists as well as locals. Several operators have sprung up, offering a complete package — including two-way hotel transfers.
The Czech Republic is quite rich in its landscape. Besides the Konopiste Chateau and other minor castles, chateaus and castle ruins, Travelers will get a great perspective on river meanders, forests, grass fields, farms and the overall hilly countryside within the central Bohemian Region. The area is also quite rich for animals such as deer, wild pigs or rabbits.
Flight Operators usually operate the ballon in the early mornings or the late afternoons. In ballooning, the timing of a flight is not so strict as it is an activity where you basically become part of nature. Within the hour of flight, they always cross a different distance, as the balloon is only carried by the wind. The stronger the wind is, the further they fly and vice-versa. Each flight takes around 60 minutes and the overall activity, including hotel transfers, lasts around 3-4 hours. Once touched down, there is a champagne ceremony to celebrate the successful landing, followed by flight certificates bearing their names.
