Recording
You’re free to take photos and videos – bring your camera, phone or binoculars. The views are worth it!

For a private flight, you can choose your own take-off location anywhere within the area shown on the map above.
If you wish to fly from a different place, we’ll be happy to prepare a custom offer for you.
Of course, we can also take off from one of our standard locations.
What to Wear
The temperature in the air is usually similar to that on the ground, often warmer due to the heat from the burners – making balloon flights pleasant all year round, even in winter.
We recommend sturdy, preferably waterproof shoes, long trousers, and an extra layer of clothing.
In the early morning hours, there may be dew on the ground.

How the Flight Unfolds
We Only Fly in Suitable Weather
Your safety is our top priority. That’s why our pilots carefully and responsibly monitor weather conditions and have the right to cancel the flight if the weather could affect flight safety.
In unfavorable weather, the views from the balloon are also not as beautiful – and we don’t want you to miss out on them.
I received a sightseeing balloon flight as a birthday gift. After the experience, I must say it definitely won’t be my only one :-)
Thank you, Mr. Kostrhun, for the wonderful flight over the Pálava Hills. It truly is a once-in-a-lifetime experience! I highly recommend it to everyone!
A beautiful flight over Brno, with a smooth landing in a meadow near Kuřim. Excellent service – I can only recommend FlyBalloon to everyone.
We had a wonderful time in the balloon basket during our flight near Telč, thanks also to the professional approach of the pilot and crew.
Pavla and Adam Kučera gives a thumbs up!
Frequently asked questions

How does a balloon flight work?
1. Book your flight date
Reserve your chosen flight date.2. Confirmation
Our pilots will contact you by phone or SMS before the scheduled flight date. Based on the current weather, they will confirm whether the flight will take place or be canceled.– For evening flights: confirmation is sent the same day between 12:00–14:00.
– For morning flights: confirmation is sent the previous afternoon or evening (no later than 21:00).
In the confirmation call or SMS you will be given the exact meeting time and take-off location. Please do not arrive earlier than the scheduled meeting time.3. Meeting at the launch site
We’ll meet at the departure point and explain how everything will proceed (where to stand during inflation, when to board the balloon, etc.).4. Balloon preparation and take-off
Inflating the balloon takes about 15–20 minutes. The pilot and crew will prepare everything carefully and check all equipment. If you’re interested, you can take part in the preparation.5. The flight
During the flight you can take photos, wave to people, ask the pilot questions – but above all, enjoy the moment! A typical flight lasts about 60 minutes, but depending on the weather and terrain, it can be shortened or extended by up to 15 minutes. Balloons usually fly between 150–500 meters above ground for the best view of details on the landscape. If you’d like to fly higher and conditions allow, the pilot will gladly take you up.6. Balloonist’s baptism and toast
After landing, you will be “elevated to balloonist nobility” and we’ll toast to your new noble title and safe landing. Ballooning traditions say that anyone flying for the first time is “born again” and therefore must be elevated and granted a new noble title.7. Return transport
At the end, after a successful flight and a glass of champagne, we’ll board the support vehicle and drive you back to the meeting point. -
What to Wear and Bring?
Keep in mind that the entire experience takes place outdoors. Take-off and landing usually happen in a field. The best choice is sporty, darker-colored clothing (it may get dirty) – similar to what you’d wear for a walk in the woods. In general, we recommend long trousers and an extra layer (after sunset, the landing site can cool down quickly). Shoes are crucial: sturdy sports shoes are a must, preferably waterproof. It is strictly forbidden to fly in slip-on shoes (Crocs, flip-flops, sandals) or high heels.
During the flight, feel free to take photos or videos – there is enough space in the basket for a camera, phone, or small backpack. -
