Fantastic balloon ride with the sweetest helpers. However, they only get 4 stars, as the description said 07.00 and suddenly we were told that we had to be picked up already at 07.00. 05.30. It also said that it was with breakfast at a country house, then it was lunch at a café. We were also only in the air for 45 min and not for 1 hour.

This was an amazing outing! Angel, the pilot, was excellent, and having the opportunity to not only see the process from beginning to end, but to be allowed to help a little made the experience just that much richer! We would HIGHLY recommend this excursion to anyone interested in a different view of Barcelona! Great value for money! Angel, Maria and Tito were SUPERB hosts and guides!

We had a perfect morning for our hot air balloon flight. Pickup was a few minutes late but our hotel was a little difficult to find. Our driver spoke excellent English and was very friendly and helpful. We arrived at the field and they immediately started preparing the balloon. Our flight was smooth with beautiful views everywhere. The landing was easy. My only issue was getting out of the basket since I'm short and neither young nor fit. But I made it. After that we went to a restaurant and had a local sausage and fries. Our pilot and assistant were very friendly. They didn't speak much English but we communicated okay with their English and my not-so-good Spanish. The pilot took great photos with his GoPro and sent me the link the next day. I had no idea he took so many and they were really fabulous. Great memories of a fun morning.
