There are 50 different flying trips in the UK to suit all different tastes but all up in the air. Choose from scenic and relaxing, adrenaline filled or learn how to fly. Ballooning trips can be done all over the UK and cost around £149 for three hours. The sunrise ballooning trip allows you to wake up with the world, looking down from 3,000 feet. Meet the pilot, get a safety briefing then climb into the basket and watch the balloon inflate and float up into the sky. Relax with a celebratory glass of champagne and get a certificate at the end.
