Hot Air Balloon Ride over Renaissance Florence

Florence is where the Renaissance began, and the city was designed to be read from street level. A balloon changes the arrangement. Buildings that face each other across narrow streets resolve into a single plan, and detail that stays hidden behind a facade on the ground sits in plain view from the air. This flight passes over the city itself, not the countryside south of it. One condition applies and it is not flexible: flights take place at sunrise only. There is no midday or afternoon departure. The exact take-off time shifts with the date, because it is set to match sunrise on the day you choose, and it is confirmed to you once that day is fixed. Flying over the historic centre of Florence also has restricted availability, so dates are fewer than for the standard Tuscan countryside flights. Plan for an early start and for a booking that depends on the calendar as much as on preference. The Tuscan ballooning season runs from spring into autumn. Cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure for a full refund.
