-
Going Up: Once ready, you and your fellow passengers will board the hand-crafted wicker basket along with the pilot. As the balloon gently lifts off the ground, you’ll feel a rush of excitement while taking in the unobstructed 360-degree views of Goa. The pilot expertly adjusts the balloon’s altitude for the best scenic views, all while a ground crew follows in a vehicle, ensuring your safety and comfort throughout the journey.
-
Landing: After approximately one hour of peaceful flight, the pilot will guide the balloon down for a soft landing on open ground. Our ground crew will then escort you back to the base point, where your adventure will conclude.
