We had THE BEST experience this morning.
We were warmly greeted on our arrival at the company's base & given the required paperwork whilst being directed into a reception room for coffee & pastries where we could watch the team inflate the balloons for todays flight out picture windows overlooking the balloon field.
There were only 2 balloons today, often there are 5 on any day.
The team were very good, explaining what would happen & going through safety protocols.
We enjoyed lovely cool fizzy drinks (champagne) & cake while up in the air.
Our pilot was very experienced & knowledgable & was always happy to answer the many questions we had.
Upon landing (super soft touchdown) the crew were quick & efficient in deflating & packing up the balloon before our drive back to the company base for breakfast.
It was a wonderful experience sitting with the crew, including the chase crew, for a great breakfast of local produce.
It is great that this company support the local traders, producers & social enterprises.
The facilities at the company base are first rate in every way.
They are clean, well maintained & really classy.
They offer a first rate service & are friendly & generous.
I cannot reccomend these guys highly enough.
