How much was it?

What did you think of it?

Where did you go for it?

My sis is organising it for my little bro 40th birthday.

She wants to pay £150 with RED LETTER DAYS

I want £120 with VIRGIN BALLOONS.

This is for a SUNRISE BALLOON RIDE

dh organised one as a surprise for our 1st wedding anniversary, was adventure balloons I think, £150, saw the receipt. That was in Alton, dont know if they are in nationwide, had champagne on the ground afterwards, lovely.

My sister paid but think it was about 120, champagne included.
It was fantastic
South Wales
It was with an independent company, can't remember who, heard a few negative things about Virgin though

I saw a virgin ballon go past my house at about 7.30 this morning, I would love to go on one! Great present!

My fil had a balloon ride for his 60th birthday. I think it was in the region of about £120, it was in Scotland and I don't know the name of the company. He thought it was brilliant and thoroughly enjoyed it.

We have balloons flying over our house at regular intervals, sometimes they are quite low and sometimes they seem millions of miles up (can you ask to fly at certain levels??).

This is the company that regularly do "flights" over my house. It may be better to go independant rather than with a company. HTH

Paid for my mum to do sunset flight over Bath, it was lovely. Think I paid about 120 but I don't remember the company. They were local I think and very good.
