The magic of Bagan has inspired visitors
to Myanmar for centuries. One of the most
remarkable sights in Asia, ancient temples
dot the landscape as far as the eye can
see.
Imagine…
floating over thousand year old pagodas
and the mighty Ayeyarwaddy River, as the
sun sinks slowly behind distant mountains.
Now "Balloons
over Bagan" affords visitors
a unique opportunity to see this ancient
kingdom, as it never has been seen before.
The sunrise and sunset champagne flights
take off daily from October through to the
end of March.
The balloon is guided by gentle winds
not exceeding 15mph, allowing passengers
a serene and peaceful bird's-eye view of
ancient temples drifting by. Using his skill
the pilot is able to guide the balloon to
a gentle landing where the friendly crew
and celebratory glass of champagne will
be on hand.
Commercial passenger ballooning has the
best safety record of all forms of air transport.
"Balloons over Bagan's" pilots and technicians
are qualified and registered in the UK.
Our balloons, which are built to the highest
standards of the British aerospace industry,
are provided by Cameron Balloons Limited,
the world's largest manufacturer of high
quality balloons.
Each balloon is insured for three-million
dollars, third party, and passenger liability.
"Balloons over Bagan" is a private Myanmar
Company that is committed to the preservation
of Bagan and its environment. A small contribution
from each flight will be donated to community
programs that directly benefit the local
population.
