A completely private flight above mist-laden valleys.
Your Private Basket: No sharing with strangers. The entire balloon is reserved exclusively for you and your guests.
Be in the Moment: All of our balloons are equipped with multiple cameras capturing your entire flight.
A Proper Toast: Step out of the basket to a freshly chilled spread of drinks and artisanal nibbles.

Easy Reschedule: Grounded by the elements? We instantly send a private link so you can lock in your next preferred date in just two taps.
Refund Reassurance: If a reschedule isn't possible, we will refund your flight (minus a standard 10% booking fee). No hoops to jump through, just honest service.

Because we believe the service on the ground should perfectly mirror the magic of the flight.
Glastonbury is the mystical heart of the West Country, a place where the lines between history and legend blur. Rising dramatically from the flat expanse of the Somerset Levels, this is a landscape defined by its sacred past and the iconic silhouette of the Tor. It is a region of quiet waterways, ancient apple orchards, and a spiritual energy that has drawn travellers for millennia.
From the town's bustling streets, the Tor feels like a distant peak. From the basket of a Westward balloon, it becomes your centrepiece. As you ascend, the "Isle of Avalon" reveals its true form-a prominent island of high ground surrounded by a sea of low-lying emerald meadows. Watching the morning mist cling to the Somerset Levels while you drift in the clear air above is an experience that feels less like a flight and more like a journey through time.

The Somerset Levels provide a vast, open canvas with few obstructions, allowing for exceptionally peaceful and long-range views. Because the terrain is so level, the Tor stands out with breathtaking clarity, acting as a navigational north star for the entire flight.
From the basket, the experience shifts from mere observation to a profound sense of wonder. On misty mornings the Tor appears to rise out of a sea of white, reclaiming its ancient identity as the Isle of Avalon right before your eyes. Drift at eye-level with the stone crown of St. Michaels Tower and watch the great shadow of the peak stretch for miles across the meadows. A silent cinematic perspective that makes the legend feel entirely real.

While every flight path is a unique gift from the wind, a journey over Glastonbury often offers spectacular views of:
The undisrupted crown of Somerset. Floating at eye-level with the 14th-century St. Michael's Tower is a perspective reserved for only a few; from here, you can trace the ancient terraced paths that spiral up its slopes.
Look down into the sacred ruins of what was once the richest and most powerful abbey in England. The roofless Great Church and the Abbot's Kitchen look like an intricate architectural model from above.
Observe the fascinating "rhynes" (drainage ditches) that create a geometric grid across the landscape, a testament to centuries of man working with nature.
See the famous ridge where legend says Joseph of Arimathea set foot. From the air, the lay lines and ridges of the landscape become visibly apparent.
On a clear day, the horizon opens up to reveal the limestone ridges of the Mendips to the North and the distant gleam of the Bristol Channel to the West.

The Launch Experience.
In Glastonbury we have a selection of launch sites that we use depending on the direction of the wind, optimising your experience and views. There is a profound stillness to a launch in the Somerset Levels. The distant lowing of cattle, the cool dampness of the meadow, and the awe-inspiring sight of the Tor slowly shrinking as you rise. It is a moment of total transition, taking you from the sacred soil of the West Country into the weightless sanctuary of the clouds.
