Hot air Balloons?

Anybody done Hot Air Balloon rides from Brussels?



Unlikely we can now get out to Brugge so do need out of Brugge please.





Thanks (this was asked once before but it wasn%26#39;t answered).

Check this out, it%26#39;s in the Brussels region. Or did you mean Brugge? Not easy to book if you are only a short time in Belgium, because it may often get cancelled due to wether conditions. Good luck!

Thanks for the link... I did mean out of Brussels!



They all look charming.



We won%26#39;t have a car so getting there might be tricky.



Have you taken any of them personally?



thanks again.

Perhaps this might be better... didn%26#39;t have time to check it out completely. Seems to be a company located in Brugge, but they do take flights near Brussels, so check it out...



We did go on a ballooning a few years ago with %26#39;Ballooning Belgium%26#39;, flights leaving in Waasmunster, but that%26#39;s even more a problem to get there if you don%26#39;t rent a car. In fact, most hot air balloons fly along the highway between Antwerp and Ghent. If I were you I%26#39;d e-mail to the Bruges-ballooning site I just gave you. They seem reliable, and if they don%26#39;t go there themselves, maybe they could help you out.



Hope you work things out! Happy holidays!

Thanks very much! We seem really messed up given not going to Brugge AND not having a car.





Had my heart set on this balloon for my birthday PLUS we got some other sad news this last week.



We may end up renting a car for the day I think. I suppose there is a reason husband got his international license. We aren%26#39;t renting a car for the weeks that we are in Europe otherwise -- perhaps it is fate?





thanks much for your wonderful help. I did read wonderful reviews about Christope from Brugge. Perhaps that is for another visit.
