The hot-air balloon flight takes place at sunrise or at sunset, depending on the weather. Departure from Warsaw at around 3am (for the sunrise flight) or at around 8am (for the sunset flight). The departure time will be confirmed 2-3 days before the tour. After 2-hour ride, you will get to the meeting point for the balloon flight in the Podlasie region, around 150 kilometres north-east of Warsaw. There, you will join your pilot and reach the place from which you will take off (it can be located up to 500 metres from the meeting point). The flight takes around 1 hour, but the entire experience takes around 3 hours. After the flight you will visit one of the two attractions: a small town of Tykocin famous for one of the best-preserved baroque synagogues in Poland or Narew National Park with floating platforms. After the tour you will be driven back to Warsaw.
Specialized infant seats are available. Travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness. Since permission for take-off depends on weather conditions, it is important for you to be flexible. If the weather does not allow the flight (due to rain or strong wind), the tour needs to be rescheduled. Usually, 2-3 days in advance is enough to confirm the date. You should be available for the tour on at least 3 consecutive days.. Please bring comfortable, rather warm clothes. Usually the passengers are asked to help inflate the balloon, so we recommend not wearing your best outfit. Also, please remember to wear comfortable shoes, as you may need to walk across the moist or muddy fields after landing. High heels and flip-flops are definitely not reccommended.. We recommend bringing your camera and binoculars. However, we do not take responsibility for any damages.
Please wait for the tour leader at the entrance to the building at 3 Basniowa street (Ochota district), opposite the parking lot.
