You are invited to discover Segovia by land and air in this 8,5-hour tour. Let us take you to Segovia from Madrid in a comfortable van and revel in an amazing experience flying over the city of Segovia, driven solely by the wind. Ride up to the heavens in a hot air balloon from the outskirts of Segovia. Doubtlessly a unique experience to remember for a lifetime, guided by the morning breeze, upon high and celebrating with champagne (cava). Continue your day with a guided tour from our specialist guide, where you can explore the most important monuments of the city of Segovia, like the Roman aqueduct, the Cathedral and the former royal palace and fortress - the Alcazar Real. We will end with an exquisite panoramic view of the city from the gardens around the Alcazar and some Free time in which you can ask our guide for the best places to eat the famous Cochinillo.

Description of the experience

From the first flame that inflates the balloon, to the last breeze upon landing, balloon flights are a unique experience to remember for a lifetime, discovering the unforeseen surprises of the landscape from up on high, guided by the morning breeze. The 1-hour flight over the city of Segovia always takes place first thing in the morning, taking advantage of the weather conditions and soft breezes of dawn. We will arrive at the take-off point with sufficient time to observe the inflation of the balloon and receive instructions from its pilot. 

During the flight over the aqueduct, the Cathedral and the former royal palace and fortress - the Alcázar Real, we may reach heights of up to 1,000 meters. We will receive pictures and videos taken during the flight, an expert pilot with years of experience will show us all the details on how the balloon works. A ceremony will be held at the end of the flight complete with champagne, breakfast and a certificate when you touch down.

This tour is an amazing chance to get a different perspective of Segovia, declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO. A perfect experience for those who have never flown in a balloon, and for those who want to relive a previous flight. With the upgraded option, continuing the tour and heading for Segovia, we will discover the Roman aqueduct, a UNESCO World Heritage site, on a walking tour led by our official guide. Marvel at this emblematic 1st-century monument, considered Spain's most important example of Roman-era civil engineering. In addition, and to bring this unforgettable day to a climax, we will see Spain's last built Gothic cathedral and the former royal palace and fortress - the Alcázar Real, built on a cliff at the confluence of two rivers near to the Sierra de Guadarrama Mountain range. 

At the end of your tour, you will return to the center of Madrid in a comfortable minibus, where your guide will be able to recommend things to do during the rest of your stay.

Madrid

As early as the 12th century, the monks of Cluny were growing grapes on the banks of the Duero River to produce wine. The Ribera del Duero is in the heart of Castilla-León, the old land of castles. The subsoil of almost all the villages is practically hollow, with caves dug to store the wine, as they guarantee perfect conditions of humidity and temperature. Although many cellars have fallen into disuse, some have been recovered for visits or for wine production. Visiting an old wine cellar that has been in operation for centuries and drinking a glass of wine there is an unforgettable experience.
