What to expect

Experience the Tuscan countryside from 2,000 feet (609 meters) as you pass over a landscape of cypress trees, fruit orchards and vineyards. You’ll see villages, castles and the rolling hills that make this region one of the world’s most beautiful.

Your tour begins approximately nine miles (15 km) from Florence in the village of San Casciano Val di Pesa, where your captain and crew will meet you at the launch spot. After a brief safety overview, hop aboard the basket and silently ascend.

Glide back to earth after an hour and toast your fellow travelers with a glass of sparkling wine. On request, you can upgrade your ticket to include transportation to and from your Florence hotel (extra fee).
