We were picked up at our Airbnb earlier than expected and the van was comfortable and clean. Pedro was a careful driver and was very considerate.
When we got to the spot for our take off, we waited a bit and watched the crew put the balloon up. That alone was already a cool experience to witness up close with sunrise as a backdrop.
The ride itself was awesome seeing Segovia from the air.
The only negative comments we have are: We felt that we were too cramped into the balloon with 5 people on each side. We could barely move without hitting someone else. Having 4 people on each side would have been perfect.
Also we were included in a group that only spoke Spanish. We could not understand what the pilot was saying. We booked for an English speaking tour. One of the crew members who stayed on land can however speak English and taught us what to do during landing.
When we landed we were treated to a brunch with the rest of the group and the crew. While this was expected and part of the tour, it was still a nice touch. The crew were all nice and warm.
Over-all, we had a good experience. Recommend this tour but be sure to ask to clarify if you are going to be grouped with a "same language" batch and how many you will be in the group.
Enjoy the ride !
