Hot Air Balloon Flight over the Volga River
Float high in the sky on a romantic hot air balloon flight over Samara and the beautiful Volga River. Marvel at the stunning landscapes, from lush forests to the tranquil waterways, as you feel the thrill of this breathtaking adventure.
- The day starts with you and your partner arriving at the launch site where the balloon is being prepared. After a quick safety briefing, you gently lift off for an hour-long flight, guided by a professional pilot.
- As you ascend, Samara's stunning landscape unveils itself beneath you. You cruise over the vast expanse of the Volga River, taking in the mesmerising view.
- After touching down, you enjoy a traditional champagne toast - a ballooning tradition dating back to 1783 - and relish the magic of the day.
Preparation steps:
- Before the flight, check the weather as flights may be cancelled if conditions are not ideal. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes, as you may need to walk through fields for take-off or landing.
- Arrive on time at the selected launch site. Be ready for an early morning flight, as this is when weather conditions are generally the most stable.
- Lastly, make sure to use the restroom prior to your flight as facilities are obviously limited in the sky!

Some tips:
- Bring a hat or cap, as the burners above your head generate a lot of heat. Sunglasses and sunscreen may also be useful, even though the flight is in the morning.
- Be sure to take a lot of pictures, not just of the landscape, but of each other. This is a romantic experience youโll want to remember.
- Don't forget to take a moment to just enjoy the experience. The serenity and calmness of floating above the world is really something to savor, so relax, hold hands, and let the world below drift away.
