Words cannot express how fantastic this experience was. Floating in a hot air balloon directly over Markt & out over Belgian farmland on a perfectly still evening ... amazing! While the breathtaking views were one thing, it was the guys from Bruges Ballooning that made the experience truly memorable. But, our experience didn't stop when we landed! We even had... More

Taking flight over Bruges, Belgium was one of the highlights of our trip to Europe. They pick you up at your hotel and take care of every detail. The views of the city were fantastic. The crew were all very friendly and eager to answer questions and point out landmarks. We had spent two days exploring Bruges and the surrounding... More

The balloon flight over Bruges was the best thing my girlfriend and I did in Bruges. It was an awesome experience and we will never forget it. We flew over the city and countryside with Christophe, taking off in the North and landing somewhere in the South of Bruges. They picked us up at our hotel and they stopped the... More

In this over-hyped special-effects-blurred world in which we live, rarely does reality measure up to expectations. Well, the hour I spent flying over Brugge and the adjacent countryside was a long-lived dream come true. I'm an international pilot by trade and an adventure-seeker by nature. I've flown formation, skydived, and zip-lined; rode in a helicoptor over Maui and an ultralight... More

My girlfriend and I were in Bruges for a few days in April 2013 and thought we would treat ourselves. It is a bit pricey ((170 euros per person), but don't let that put you off - we nearly did and feel we would really have regretted it if we did not go. It was amazing and we loved every... More

We made a reservation in January for a mid March flight for two. The weather late in winter can be iffy and it was blowing 10m/s, so the night before the pilot and I agreed to cancel. It turns out later that we were charged 619€ two weeks ahead. No refund was given when we cancelled as the charge showed... More

On a sunny afternoon with a soft wind whistling by, I flew with seven others over the majestic, magic city of Bruges. Guided by the skillfully sagacious and soulful proficiency of our pilot, Christophe, we climbed from a farm just beyond Bruges and approached the clouds as we glided over the amazing, medieval city. Never an anxious moment, never anything... More
