With the Exclusive Nacelle flight, you can take our hot-air balloons on your own (alone, as a couple, with family or friends – the choice is yours).
Appointments take place at sunrise, in Puimoisson, next to the Pigeonnier des Banons. From the village, follow the signs for Valensole on the D56 / Route de Valensole for 2.5 km, then take the path on your left, where a sign indicates the meeting place.

We welcome you and drive you to the take-off site in our 4x4 vehicles.
After the briefing and safety instructions, you'll take part in inflating the balloon. We're self-sufficient when it comes to preparing the equipment, and prefer to avoid our passengers having to handle heavy loads.
For one to one and a half hours, you'll fly over the unexpected landscapes of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence in peaceful silence.
At the end of the flight, a country-style buffet of fresh regional produce (cheese, charcuterie, cereal breads, red wine and fruit juice) is served in a small rural area near the meeting point. Allow around 4 hours for this activity.
You'll need seasonal clothing, preferably cotton, comfortable enough to straddle the basket, shoes that fit your feet, such as sneakers or walking shoes (no boarding possible without suitable footwear), pants, jacket, sweater or fleece before the flight.
We use balloons with a maximum capacity of 6 passengers, for the sake of conviviality. For groups, we fly with several balloons.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that the activity may be of a sporting nature and that it requires you to be in good physical condition. You must be able to board our gondolas without outside help, to stand for one to two hours and be able to maintain a suitable position for landing if there is wind.
You must be able to hold on firmly to the handles available on board, legs bent, leaning against the basket for a few minutes.
Pregnant women are not allowed to board, and we ask you to inform us if you wear prostheses (hips, knees) or any other physical pathology. The pilot may decide to refuse boarding if he considers that your physical condition does not allow you to fly safely.
If in doubt, ask your doctor for advice.
