At the appointed time, you will meet «VIVA let's fly» team near the Lassithi plateau. Then, transfer by company minivans to the takeoff place. You will be involved in the preparation of the balloon for the ride: unpacking the balloon, preparing the basket, inflating the balloon with cold and then hot air. Shortly before the takeoff, our pilots will make a safety briefing. As soon as the balloon is upright, the pilots will invite you to the basket for the takeoff. Flight duration is 40 minutes to 1 hour. Of course, under certain weather conditions, this time can change both to shorter or longer. After landing, you and the pilots deflate the balloon and pack it back into the trailer. When the balloon and its parts are packed, you celebrate the flight with a glass of sparkling champagne. This tradition is an essential part of hot air balloon ride!

Second part of your journey is is a delicious authentic breakfast in a Cretan tavern. Fresh orange juice, coffee and various snacks will further «rise» you up! From the VIVA company you will receive memorable souvenirs and the pilots will issue certificates confirming your flight. After the brunch our team will bring you to the initial meeting point.
