Balloon Flight Over Orlando At Sunrise
Have you been there and done all of the wonderful attractions in Orlando? Are you tired of waiting in long queues in the warm sunshine. Are super-fast roller-coasters not your thing. Then maybe the totally unique experience of of a flight in an air balloon is just for you.
Typically these trips require that you make your own way to the take-off points but some of these trips allow you you get there in luxury transport such as a limo and executive people carrier.
It is an early start though at around 5.30am although obviously this can change depending both on the time of the year and of course the weather on the day. Typically you will meet an hour prior to sunrise and travel to one of the many launch sites in the Orlando area. Inflation takes about 20 minutes and then you'll be airborne!
Watching the balloon inflate is in itself a very exciting experience and if you have not seen it happen before you will be spellbound by it. The thing that most people comment on about watching a balloon inflate for the very first time is the noise. The rush of the flames coming from the burners is very intense and extremely ...
... loud.
The the balloon is fully inflated and you and your party are aboard you will ascend to several thousand feet in the beautiful Orlando morning sky sky and enjoy this unforgettable flight over tree tops and theme parks. Your skilled and knowledgeable pilot will point out all the important sites of the interest in the area. This will range from the neatly ordered groves where oranges bloom to infamous Florida swamps where alligators and other critters live and lurk.
Typically the balloon flight will last around one hour and most people tend to find that this time (if you pardon the pun)- just flies by time. It is also great chance for a little quiet reflection and just to quietly take in the amazing sights that you can see. With the deafening silence only broken by the sound of the burners blasting out some more hot air into the balloon
On certain trips once you have landed and the balloon are stored away, you are treated to a traditional Champagne toast, where you raise your glass to a beautiful morning in the clouds. Bask in the after flight wonderment with your fellow voyagers and listen to the chick of the champagne flutes. Do not worry if you are driving or it is a little too early in the day for an alcoholic drink as non-alcoholic beverages are also normally available.
Some trips then offer the chance for a hearty breakfast - it is amazing sometimes that all that fresh air can create a huge appetite. This is normally take the form of a buffet style breakfast at a hotel local to the balloon landing area.
The hot air balloon experience is a fantastic alternative trip to take whilst you spend some time in the Orlando area. And one you can brag about and recommend to all your friends who surely will want to eagerly try this for themselves.
A wonderful gated community in Orlando. A fine selection of luxury vacation villas in Orlando Florida.
