Full description
Dare to conquer the Extremadura sky while the world wakes up!
Fly over Badajoz in a 1-hour balloon flight to discover the Guadiana River and its walls from the air. Enjoy a complete experience that includes inflation, traditional toast and breakfast with typical products.
It will be an unforgettable adventure over the horizon.
What we will do
The meeting point in Badajoz will be about 45 minutes before sunrise . The team will be waiting for us there and will take us by 4x4 to the take-off point.
Once on the ground, we will witness the assembly and inflation of the balloon and, if we feel like it, we will participate in the preparations while we receive the safety instructions for the flight. Once everything is ready, we will climb into the basket for a smooth take-off.
We will soar over the Guadiana River, enjoying a privileged view of the bridges, walls and fortifications of Badajoz. The wind will guide our course at different altitudes, allowing us to contemplate both the details of the dehesas and the wide panoramic views of the cultivated fields of Extremadura at sunrise.
After approximately 1 hour of flight, we will land in a safe place and we will move with the team to a quiet area, where we will toast with a glass of cava and share a breakfast with typical products of the region. It will be the moment to comment on the experience, review the photos of the morning and share sensations.
The experience will have a total duration of approximately 4 hours.
