Highlights

Segovia, a historic city north of Madrid, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its gorgeous architecture and rich legacy — its landmarks range from Roman aqueducts to medieval walls. Enjoy the city’s splendor from the air on this spellbinding hot air balloon trip. Arrive in time to see the balloon inflate, and, after a safety briefing, you’ll be whisked away into midair. Spend one hour floating over the city before landing and indulging in a Spanish breakfast and glass of celebratory Cava. Two tour options are available, one of which includes round-trip transport from Madrid. The capacity of the baskets can vary between 4 and 24 passengers plus the pilot. There are baskets of different capacities that are used depending on the number of total reservations on the day of the flight.

  • 5So amazing!!!!!

    Pepe and his crew were very professional, knowledgeable and coordinated. Pepe has directed thousands of flights so I felt like I was in safe hands. The flight itself was so peaceful and amazingly beautiful. The balloon itself is a dream come true and flying over Segovia was very special. I would do it again anytime! This company has a great reputation for good reason. Don’t forget to tip your workers when you go. They work very hard!

  • 5Wonderful

    You have to help them put away the balloon and carry it along with everyone else. It’s heavy, takes time

  • 5Fantastic!

    Flying over Segovia with EoloFly and pilot Pepe was an unforgettable experience. Everything felt safe and well-organized from start to finish. Pepe is a calm and professional pilot who shared local stories and made the journey extra special. The flight itself was magical – seeing the sunrise over Segovia, the aqueduct, the cathedral, and Alcázar from above was breathtaking. Safety was always a priority, and the smooth landing followed by cava made it a perfect adventure. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Segovia!

  • 5Unforgettable experience!!

    Absolutely unforgettable!! The hot air balloon ride was breathtaking and felt completely safe from start to finish. I was one who thought it was dangerous, but our Pilot Pericles was the best and made sure we were complete safe. Pericles and staff are true experts—professional, friendly, and reassuring throughout the entire experience. Pericles has done this for more than 20 years. I really liked that at after we landed, Pericles shared with us History of the Hot Air Ballon and we had a toast with champagne and a “tabla”. They included my 8 year old son in all the process from the start to folding and packing the balloon. He definitely loved it. The views of Segovia from up are just priceless. A must do if you ever visit Spain. I can’t recommend this adventure enough! Truly, we got the best team!

About Segovia

Segovia is a hilltop city in Castile with a Roman aqueduct, a turreted Alcázar, a Gothic cathedral and a UNESCO-listed old town.

Segovia stands on a rocky ridge above two rivers, about 1,000 metres high on the Castilian plateau, and its old town is listed by UNESCO along with the Roman aqueduct. The aqueduct, built in the first century AD, strides through the town on more than 160 granite arches, held together without mortar. At the ridge's western tip, the Alcázar rises like a ship's prow with slate-roofed turrets, and the cathedral, among the last great Gothic churches built in Spain, anchors the Plaza Mayor.

Top-ranked sights in Segovia: Roman Aqueduct of Segovia, Alcazar of Segovia (Alcázar de Segovia), Segovia Cathedral.
