Loire Valley (France)

Loire Valley (France)

Expect to see plenty of castles and rows of grapes in the heart of this UNESCO World Heritage site. Along with those stunning chateaux, a flight reveals quaint villages, glimpses of the winding Loire River and twisting rural roads. For great photo ops, book a flight at dusk when the land is bathed in a rainbow of light in pink, purple and gold. Fun fact: The first manned hot air balloon flight happened in Paris – about a two-hour drive away – in 1783.

Luxor (Egypt)

Luxor (Egypt)

There are few experiences in the world that can compare to a hot air balloon ride at sunrise in Luxor, Egypt. As the sun emerges from horizon, you’ll drift over the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut and over the glittering Nile River. Ancient temples and tombs of pharaohs and kings dot the landscape while the vastness of the dessert surrounds you. This is the place to go for a once-in-a-lifetime bucket list experience.

Queenstown, New Zealand

Queenstown, New Zealand

The other country Down Under is known for its dramatic landscapes and unbridled love of adventure. You can experience both with a ride here, highlighting the Southern Alps, Lake Wakatipu, mountains, a slew of golf courses and terrain that fans of the movie, The Hobbit, may recognize. Even for those who have been there and done that, it’s a different experience depending on the time of year.

Serengeti (Tanzania)

Serengeti (Tanzania)

Another bucket list experience is the Serengeti National Park. The most spectacular rides are at sunrise and sunset. As the sun greets the day, the balloon will float in whichever direction the winds of the morning takes it, providing an extraordinary opportunity to enjoy views of dramatically striped black and white zebra, grey elephants sashaying towards a waterhole, wiry warthogs foraging in the grassy scrub and lions lolling under shady trees, their puffed golden tails making subtle swishes.

Cappadocia (Turkey)

Many visitors travel to Cappadocia specifically for the hot air balloon experience. The rugged landscape is the draw, sculpted by volcanic activity and erosion. It has left behind stone pillars and hoodoos (also called fairy chimneys). Rides typically range from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours and launch at sunrise when winds are most predictable. Trips are available year long, even in winter when you may see snow dusting the rocky valleys.
