  This company is phenomenal. Jonas was brilliant at information sharing and quick to reply to any questions. 👨‍✈️ Lionel was our experienced and funny pilot with Mark as our man on the ground. They ensured we knew what was happening and when. They were engaging (and had far better English than I expected). They also showed true kindness and thoughtfulness to my 9 year old. My biggest concern about the entire thing was the landing and Lionel landed us absolutely perfectly! Not a single bump, it was text book and so impressive. It’s a surreal experience and if you are on the fence about doing it, I’d say call them and book it! Insiders tips ; It’s a lot more physical than you might think, packing the balloon 🎈 away that is. Some serious heaving. You land in a field so wear grubbies and waterproof shoes (if possible) you don’t care about. It’s also rather loud in the basket with the fire blasts, so if you have sensitive hearing bring ear defenders or cotton wool. It was a wonderful experience and I am so pleased we chose this team. Faultless 🤩 thank you so much 🙏

  We had an amazing experience with Balloon &Castles, our pilot was Laurent, he was knowledgeable and professional. We felt secure as soon as we started. The crew waited for the wind to calm down to fly and they were ready to cancel the flight if they felt any danger could arise. We flew for 56 minutes, the maximum height was 956meters and landed 15 km away, we were lucky to fly above Sarlat which doesn't happen often from what Laurent mentioned. The aperitif after the flight was the perfect ending. Highly recommended.

  What a morning! Well worth the early rise. Such a scenic sunrise flight over the Dordogne valley seeing lots of magical châteaux. Our pilot, Mathieu, and driver, Mouloud, were incredible. Such a wonderful experience. One we will never forget. Worth going in the morning to get the best of the day. Recommended for a more enjoyable experience before the heat of the day.
