Hot Air Balloon

Live a unique and exclusive experience soaring through the skies of the driest desert in the world. We begin before sunrise with pickup from your hotel. While the balloon is being inflated, you’ll enjoy coffee, tea, snacks, and croissants, along with a safety briefing. The flight lasts between 45 minutes and 1 hour, depending on wind conditions. The route changes daily, making each flight a one-of-a-kind adventure. Upon landing, we celebrate with a sparkling wine toast and appetizers, followed by a gourmet table with sandwiches, fruits, cheeses, and nuts to end the experience on a high note. An unforgettable way to start the day—floating above the landscapes of the Chilean Altiplano.

Hot Air Balloon Tour with Atacama Balloons

The activity has a total duration of approximately 3.5 hours. It begins very early, with passenger pickup from their respective hotels about one hour before sunrise. Upon arrival at the launch site, guests can enjoy coffee or tea while watching the balloon being inflated. Then, the pilot gives a safety briefing.

Once the balloon is fully inflated, passengers board and the flight begins from a designated takeoff point.
Flight time varies between 45 minutes and 1 hour, depending on weather conditions. It’s important to note that the balloon’s path is determined by wind currents, so there is no fixed route and the landing site will differ from the takeoff location.

At the end of the flight, passengers are welcomed with a toast of sparkling wine and appetizers.
The tour includes round-trip transportation from the hotel and two service tables:

First table (before takeoff): assorted snacks, freshly brewed ground coffee, croissants, alfajores, jams, fruits, and a variety of teas.

Second table (after landing): sandwiches, fruits, a cheese board, nuts, and a sparkling wine toast.
