Greetings from Skipper Phillip
I’ve been flying a balloon since 2001 and have always been deeply captivated by the special flying experience I get every time I’m in the air. Everything is simultaneously still and in motion. The landscape glides by below me and the beautiful view I’m in the middle of can even be smelled up in the basket!
It simply cannot be explained in words. It has to be experienced.
It has always been my wish to pass this experience on to others. It’s one thing to be convinced yourself – but to see others living their dream and experiencing ballooning is just as great a gift.
That’s what drives DreamBalloon for me.
I’m sure you’ll be surprised! Surprised at how different flying a hot air balloon is from anything else you’ve ever done, and surprised at how much you’ll love it. One trip is usually not enough.
I and the rest of the team will certainly do everything we can to give you an experience of a lifetime.

Hot air balloon flights take place either in the hours just before sunset or in the hours right after sunrise. During the flying season, the meeting and flight times will therefore vary according to the times of sunrise and sunset.
We are in the air for about an hour, depending slightly on wind and weather conditions, suitable landing spots, etc. However, you should plan for at least four hours for the entire experience.
Hot air balloons cannot be steered. They follow the wind's direction, and you never know exactly where you will land. After about 50 minutes, the pilot begins looking for a suitable landing site.
The chase vehicle follows the balloon on the ground and aims to arrive at the landing site shortly after the balloon has landed.
We alternate between a wide range of different flying regions in Zealand, Funen, and Jutland. In Jutland, we most often fly in the area around Silkeborg. On Funen, we typically start in the area between Tommerup, Årslev, and Ringe. In Zealand, we alternate between 4 flying regions: North Zealand, Roskilde, Jystrup/Ringsted, and Sorø.
