- Y8249PXsamb0 contributions10/10 would recommend!!This hot air balloon ride was one of the highlights of our trip!!! The whole crew was awesome, and we had the smoothest ride thanks to our pilot! And of course the views were unbeatable. I would absolutely recommend this trip to anyone wanting an unforgettable experience!Written 20 August 2024
- H7450HHtanias0 contributionsWhat a Balloon Adventure over SegoviaIt was the most amazing experience my Daughter and I had in years. The date was June 18 and the air conditions were perfect that day, Aerotours made sure of that plus they have a great customer service. You need to bring with you only a light jacket and your adventurous spirit. Everything about it is breathtaking starting with the process of the balloon’s inflation on the ground. Then the briefing on security measures and we were ready for taking off. It gives goose bumps but the ride is very smooth, and peaceful. The views from Segovia countryside, the fields up and close down, the mountains, the sunrise, the skies, the birds… It is worth the money no doubts. Our team was the best by far. Nyx, the coordinator and David, the pilot are a powerful couple working in tune all the way. She coordinates the floor operations and He, the skies and the rest of their family do everything else to make sure that we are safe. Once landing, all the rescue vehicles were there in less than 10’, they were the first ones, no time to loose. It is important to know that. It was a celebration after, they even prepared a table with coffee, mimosas, breads, Spanish cold cuts, and cheeses, fruits, pastries and then the pictures. Ten days later they send us a video from our own hot-air-balloon unforgettable tour. Thanks Daniel and NyxWritten 26 July 2024
- footsteps0 contributionsA magical experienceThank you to all the team for a very special experience. Great organisation, great atmosphere. The flight itself is magical. My first balloon flight at age 74 - shows you are never too old to experience new things. One slight problem was that I couldn't climb into the basket, soon solved by two lovely young members of the team who lifted me up in their arms (and didn't forget to help me out at the end of the trip!). A bonus for me was that, having toured Segovia the day before, I was able, from the air, to see and recognise sites I had visited. Gracias a todo el equipo por una experiencia muy especial. Gran organización, gran ambiente 👍 (¡y por cierto, la conducción de Raúl fue excelente!) Definitivamente lo más destacado de mis vacaciones en España. 😘Written 20 July 2024
- A00457300 contributionsJust amazing do it !!We were lucky enough to experience this amazing flight with our ace pilot Luis and his assistant Ron . We had our hotel pickup which was great and a short drive to the take off site . It was great to watch the set up and enjoy the early morning. The takeoff was tranquil and the journey just beautiful over the sites and countryside. The pilot Luis was great fun and very skilful . We landed gently and were offered some cold meats and cheese with cava . An amazing start to the day !!Written 5 July 2024

- Vacation7620670 contributionsIneffable and definitely a highlightAerotours did an amazing job. Our first time hot air ballooning. Segovia was so picturesque and the country side so peaceful. The crew were fantastic especially our pilot (I think her name was Nyx??). Once in the air and the gas burners were silent the feeling was ineffable. Would definitely recommend.Written 29 June 2024
- adamhK2051XH0 contributionsSegovia balloon flight wowFrom start to finish the experience was fantastic. Floating gently over the castle of Segovia gives the most amazing views. Our pilot Nyx was very informative, turning the balloon so everyone got the same view. I would recommend everyone experience a balloon flight, and Aerotours make it very relaxing.Written 28 June 2024

It has left a lot to be desired. In a cabin for 2 people they put 4 adults, while in others there were 3 people and it was for 4, I couldn't move, it was overwhelming and very hot. The super low flight and the horrible views, rabbits and chalets.
Let's go, the never seen before. I have been on vacation and the apartment where I have been had better views.
I was terribly disappointed. On top of that, they make us be there at 7 a.m. and we haven't left until 8 a.m. Disappointing no matter how you look at it. We have wasted money.
I do not recommend it. Nothing to do with advertising.

Estimada Beatriz,
La zona que se sobrevuela en Madrid es el parque regional de Guadarrama y en los alrededores sí que hay urbanizaciones, pero es lógico, siendo Madrid, tenemos otras zonas de vuelo distintas, más históricas o mas naturales, pero ustedes han elegido esta.
En cuanto a la distribución de la barquilla en específico, esta tiene separaciones para 3 y para 4 pasajeros (12 pasajeros en total) y los huecos en los que van 4 pasajeros es lo suficientemente espacioso para incluso 5 o para 4 personas grandes, si deseaban que la cesta fuese solo para 2, tenemos también esa opción, pero el precio no es el mismo.
Saludos!

My fiance and I booked the tour over Madrid's park but the weather was not nice over this area for the day we booked so they offered us to go to Segovia instead and it was INCREDIBLE. Choose Segovia ! The castle and the cathedral from up in the air is stunning. The staff was nice, pick up from hotel was perfect. Little snack and glass of sparkling wine in the field after the landing was great. Would recommend ! Only down side was the 2 other client that listened to music on speaker phone while the hot air balloon was in the air and did'nt bother the other 12 persons around, but was not the fault of the companie. Next time i would book a private tour 100% worth being alone !

The trip in the balloon was fabulous
We were picked up at our Madrid hotel at about 6:45 snd arrived at the launching site about 8:30 where we watched the balloons being inflated.
Then after about 10 minutes we were ascending into the sky for our one hour flight over Segovia. It was marvelous and everyone on board had a great trip. We then landed in a field about five minutes drive from where we started, and had a champagne celebration before our transport back to Madrid where we got back to the hotel about 12:45.
This should be on your “must do” list
The only thing I didn’t get were the photos as promised. 😱😂

Hi! thanks for sharing your experience, however we don't understand your statement, as in this paragraph we indicate the highlights that you will see from the balloon, but it does not stop in this places as it will not be possible in a hot-air balloon flight.

Where is the departure point of the balloon ride? We were trying to decide whether to purchase the additional transfer option or just the balloon ride itself. We are currently staying at the Westin Palace in Madrid.
