A hot air balloon flight in Vilnius or Trakai will leave indelible impressions! Balloons are the oldest and most romantic air vehicle. Invented in 1783, balloons are still widely used today. Due to their aristocratic nature, hot air balloons are considered a privilege of the rich, and hot air ballooning is considered to be an aristocratic occupation.
Vilnius is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe and one of the few capitals over which you can still enjoy a balloon flight. Recently flights over Vilnius have been restricted due to the intensive traffic at the Vilnius Airport. Flights over Vilnius are possible if the wind direction is from the East, Southeast, or Southwest and if the visibility is more than 5 km. In any case, we must obtain permission from the Air Traffic Control before take-off. Sometimes it happens that the Air Traffic Control doesn‘t grant permission to fly balloons and the flight has to be canceled at the last minute.
As for flights in Trakai – they leave an indelible impression to all who has seen Trakai Castle from above at least once, passing it slowly and proudly or who has „soaked“ their feet in the Lake Galvė.
