About the experience

We are proud to offer the most premium Hot Air Ballooning experience for you to enjoy, with the option to take flight on weekdays or weekends with this Anytime package for one. Whether it's early in the morning or late in the afternoon, these flights taking off from Wild Pig Farm in the village of Stadhampton in Oxfordshire, which is a working farm and farm shop, are something special. Upon arrival, you'll meet and greet the ballooning team over tea or coffee with pastries. Following your safety briefing, you'll get the opportunity - if you'd like to - of helping the team with preparing the balloon for the experience. With a capacity of up to 22 people, you'll be flying in one of the largest baskets of any balloon in the UK, although the actual group numbers are between 10 to 18, so as to give everyone a comfortable amount of room on the flight. And whilst the burners used to get the balloon up into the air control the altitude, it's the wind direction which will ultimately assign the course and speed of your flight. Climbing to heights of 2000 ft, you'll marvel at the many sights from above in the glorious Oxfordshire countryside, seeing its delightful chocolate box villages - maybe, depending on how the flights, you might even get a chance to see the Chiltern Hills Area of Natural Beauty. Overall, under the piloting of your chief pilot, Spencer Craze, you're sure to have the hot air balloon ride of your life - and you'll also get to toast the flight with a glass of champagne once you've landed!
