Ballooning over the Historic Capital of Bern

Balloon ride over the Old Town and the Federal Palace, including a Three-lakes panorama 

With Holly Balloon, you become part of the team, helping to prepare the balloon for an unforgettable flight over Bern. Afterward, you step into our wicker basket and ascend to 2,000–3,000 meters, where breathtaking views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau in the Alps await. A gentle breeze carries us along the three lakes, allowing you to admire the sparkling water and watch the sailboats drifting below. With a west wind, we float over the Emmental region, gliding past rolling hills and beautiful farmhouses. Following tradition, the journey concludes with a ceremonial “baptism,” where your pilot personally celebrates with a glass of Prosecco. Each guest receives a HOLLY BALLOON certificate, and we arrange the return transportation.
