I'm thinking of taking the family on an air balloon trip with 'orange blossom balloons'. Has anyone out there done a similar trip? Is it worth the money? Can you book it in advance from the U.K? I'd be interested to hear peoples views.

Thanks.

Hi gofer, we sent my dad up in one of their balloons in december for his xmas present, and he loved every minute! Friendly, really helpful guys, gave us a wake up call too! Which we loved, especially as we weren't all flying!!![msneek]

I hope you don't mind me asking but how much does it cost - I would love to do this as a present for my hubby.

BTW, I meant to mention this earlier but that company were on GMTV either yesterday or today and the flight looked pretty good. Mind you, it goes at dawn so you need to be an early riser! [msnwink]

I think it's about $160 per passenger but don't quote me on that [msnsmile].

A friend did it a few years ago and said it was a fantastic experience

One child per adult free under 9 (if more than one under 9 and not enough adults, will be charged child price). 10 - 15 years $95.

Thanks Blott,

That sounds great as there will be 2 adults plus 2 under 9's and one 15 year old in our party.

Does anyone know if I can book it from UK?

We have stayed at Lindfields many times and the balloons come over every morning!
