About this tour
Rise above Segovia or Toledo in a hot air balloon for an hour-long flight that reveals medieval architecture and countryside sprawl from hundreds of metres up. You'll drift past the Alcázar fortress or Roman aqueduct, spot wildlife and settlements below, then touch down for cava and a Spanish brunch. The full outing takes about four hours, including ground time and transport to and from your accommodation.

What to expect
You'll be collected from your hotel before dawn or early morning, then driven to the launch site. Crews inflate the balloon whilst you watch, then you step into the basket for a calm, drifting ascent. The flight lasts an hour—expect gentle floating rather than dramatic movement, with unobstructed views in all directions. Wildlife and patchwork fields pass below as you gain altitude. On landing, the team secures the balloon and invites you to share cava before settling into a seated Spanish brunch with soft drinks. Weather dictates everything; if conditions turn poor, you'll be offered a reschedule or refund.
Good to know
Book early as flights depend on stable weather and fill quickly. Children must have an adult in the basket. Pregnant travellers should avoid this experience. Wear layers—it's cooler aloft—and bring sunscreen. The whole event, ground to brunch, runs roughly four hours.
