What a great gift! - The view to Belogradchik rocks from the sky is incredible!
During the flight the pilot guided us which direction to look and we saw many rocks that remain hidden from the ground.
Our son (9 years old) got excited from the trip too.
The team had a good organization at the ballons's take off and transporting us back to the city.
It was a very emotional experience for everyone!

Belogradchik - A Perfect Hot Air Ballooning Venue with Stunning Views - We visited as a family with 2 young kids. The views of the Rocky Mountains are breathtaking. We were fortunate to have a great pilot as well. Once in the balloon, the experience is truly top-notch.
Rating 4 star as organising needs to be improved. Our booking was for 7AM, but we only took off at 8:30AM - there was no communication from organisers on cause for delay. We had to run around to ask when our balloon would take off but received little info making kids impatient given it is an early morning start. It also took a lot of post booking follow up to confirm the booking, deposit payment etc. Emails are sent last minute causing uncertainty if you are planning a holiday. Communication needs improving (feedback for organisers)
