Cotswold Balloon Safaris

General information

First, take an idyllic Cotswold setting, then one of the most exhilarating modes of transport. Add a small group of people, give them the promise of an amazing experience in-the-making and let the excitement mount...

The pre-launch buzz is palpable. Everyone’s talking and laughing and can’t wait to get started. And if they’re this excited now – even before we’ve got in the basket – just imagine how much more excited they’ll be when we set off. Or when we’re rising smoothly up, up and away…

That’s what Cotswold Balloon Safaris is all about. The thrill of the adventure.

We’re here to give you, or your loved ones, some amazing, life-affirming experiences. Every balloon flight is a brand new adventure, with a new mix of people. And every one is a wonderful mix of awe-inspiring moments, jaw-dropping sights and experiences to cherish.

To make it all work, we just need four things: an experienced pilot, a top-quality balloon, a perfect setting and you…
So who’s your pilot?

Find out about one of the world’s most experienced hot air balloon pilots – the man who’s swapped the snow-capped Alps and the majestic Masai Mara for the Cotswolds… It’s Captain Mike.
The finest balloon in the Cotswolds

Our balloon – our pride and joy. Even if you don’t come and join us on one of our flights, be sure to look out for us, floating serenely over the Cotswolds, and give us a wave.
The perfect setting

We wanted a quintessentially English setting... It had to be the Cotswolds. And you can choose from any of these beautiful Cotswold locations.
Gift packages for all occasions

It wouldn’t be half as much fun without you or your guests. We’ve got flight packages to suit most budgets and timetables. And it’s really easy to book your flight.
Experience counts

We believe that the quality of your experience depends on the quality of ours. So here’s our promise: we will give you an experience that is totally safe and totally exhilarating.

Captain Mike is one of the most experienced balloonists in the world. And he’s accrued some 2,000 flying hours all over the world.

You couldn’t be in better hands.
