MILTON KEYNES BALLOON FLIGHTS
Take to skies over the fascinating city of Milton Keynes and the glorious Buckinghamshire countryside, on the hot air balloon flight of your life! This ‘designed’ city is an eclectic mixture of old, new and surprising, which makes for some highly memorable views as you drift effortlessly overhead.
Take in wide open vistas of Willen Lake and Willen Lakeside Park and the variety of water sports that are enjoyed on it. Keep an eye out for the Buddhist Temple and Peace Pagoda, Woburn Abbey and its safari park, and of course Milton Keynes’ concrete cows!
THINGS TO DO AT MILTON KEYNES
Having drifted it on your balloon ride, why head to Europe’s first Buddhist Temple to admire the terrific carvings and get an insight into the religion. If you’re a shopping worshiper, Milton Keynes won’t disappoint! Home to one of the longest indoor shopping malls in Europe, thecentre:mk offers over three miles of shops!
For a bit culture, browse the theatre district for a show to see, or if you’re looking to ramp things up a bit, head over to Willen Lake for some wake boarding, or to the Xscape complex where you can try your hand (and legs) and snowboarding and skiing – both on real snow! You might even consider being a zookeeper for a day at Woburn Safari Park – just ten miles away. We told you Milton Keynes was surprising…

You can leave your car at the launch site as this is where your ballooning experience will finish.
Your unforgettable balloon ride will start with a full safety briefing, after which you you can help the team with the the inflating of the balloon if you wish – or kick back, soak up the atmosphere and let others do the hard work.

The Flight
DURING YOUR MILTON KEYNES BALLOON RIDE
As you drift gently over Milton Keynes and the Buckinghamshire countryside there will be ample opportunity to take photographs from this unique vantage point. During your flight you are free to discuss how the balloon works with the pilot, who will also be pointing out the many points of interest that drift below you or rest gently on the horizon.
No two flights are the same, and as such any number of towns, villages and important landmarks could come into view – all of which create talking points for years to come.

Landing
YOUR MILTON KEYNES BALLOON LANDING
After an unforgettable hour ballooning your pilot will begin your decent towards a gentle landing. Once back on the ground, and should you wish, you can help in packing away the envelope (that’s the official name for the fabric canopy).
