What happens on the day of your balloon flight
The exact meeting time and location are confirmed before the activity because the safest launch area depends on the weather and wind.
Arrive at the confirmed meeting point at the agreed time. The team prepares the balloon while the pilot completes the final safety checks.
The basket rises gradually and the balloon follows the air currents. There is no engine noise and no fixed route to follow.
The pilot changes altitude to work with different wind layers while the ground crew follows the flight.
After landing, the crew packs the balloon and the experience ends with a cava toast and flight diploma.
What can you see from a balloon over Segovia?
Segovia is an exceptional place to understand from the air. Depending on the wind, the flight may reveal the Alcazar, the cathedral, the old city walls, the Roman Aqueduct and the open Castilian landscape surrounding the city.
A balloon does not fly a pre-set sightseeing route. It moves with the wind, so no operator can honestly guarantee a pass over one exact monument. The changing perspective is part of the experience, and the pilot always gives priority to a safe take-off, flight and landing.
Weather and safety come before the schedule
Ballooning depends on visibility, surface wind, wind at altitude and suitable landing areas. The pilot reviews the conditions and only operates when the flight can be completed safely. This is why the final operational details are communicated close to the flight date.
If the pilot cancels because conditions are unsuitable, Voyager Balloons offers a new date at no extra cost. Travellers should keep some flexibility in their plans, especially when visiting from abroad or combining the flight with a day trip from Madrid.
