Enjoy a breathtaking flight above Segovia that is powered only by the wind. From the outskirts of Segovia, ascend to the skies in a hot air balloon. Unquestionably a one-of-a-kind experience to cherish for a lifetime, carried along by the morning air, on high, and toasting with cava. 

With the help of an authorized guide, continue your day by touring Segovia's most significant landmarks, including the Roman aqueduct, the Cathedral, and the Alcazar Real, a former royal residence and castle. We'll finish with a breathtaking aerial image of the city taken from the gardens surrounding the Alcazar. A hot air balloon ride is an adventure suitable for people of all ages that may be enjoyed with friends, family, or coworkers. Balloon flights are an unforgettable experience, revealing the unexpected delights of the countryside from above, guided by the morning breeze, from the first flame that inflates the balloon to the last breeze upon landing. 

In order to take advantage of the favorable weather and gentle winds of dawn, the 1-hour fly above Segovia is always conducted in the early morning. We will arrive at the launch site in plenty of time to watch the balloon inflate and hear the pilot's instructions.

We may soar as high as 1,000 meters as we pass over the Alcázar Real, a former royal castle and fortification, the Aqueduct, and the Cathedral. A skilled pilot with years of expertise will walk us through every step of the balloon's operation while taking images and films for us to view after the trip. After the flight, there will be a ceremony with champagne, brunch, and a diploma when you land. 

This tour is a fantastic opportunity to see Segovia from a fresh angle because it has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site. For those who have never flown in a balloon as well as those who want to relive a prior flight, this is the ideal experience.

Our official guide will lead us on a walking tour of Segovia's Roman Aqueduct, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site, as we continue the tour there. Admire this iconic structure from the first century, which is regarded as Spain's most significant example of Roman-era civil engineering. The Alcázar Real, a former royal palace and stronghold erected on a rock at the junction of two rivers close to the Sierra de Guadarrama mountain range, will also be seen as a last highlight of this amazing day. 

After your trip, you will return to Madrid's city center in a cozy minibus, where your tour guide will be able to suggest things to do for the remainder of your stay.
