The experience of flying in a balloon with freedom and excitement
Flying in a balloon is one of the most magical experiences you can have. There are no noisy engines, no windows in between; just the feeling of absolute freedom and an intimate connection with the natural environment.
But what does it really feel like to fly in a balloon? What is the experience like from the moment you climb into the basket until you touch down again?
Hot air balloon ride like no other
The moment of takeoff is one of the most exciting moments of a balloon flight. It all begins in an open field, where the balloon unfurls and fills with hot air until it rises majestically, filled with colors.
As the balloon gently begins to rise, you’re struck by how calm and peaceful it is. There’s no abrupt takeoff or sudden acceleration. It’s simply the balloon floating skyward as you feel every second of the ascent.
From the basket, you can see rivers meandering through valleys, forests stretching out like a blanket of green, and mountains touching the sky. It’s a moment of pure contemplation and wonder, an experience difficult to describe.
At Volando en Globo, our team of expert pilots ensures that every takeoff is a smooth and safe experience, providing on-site flight information and allowing you to relax while enjoying every moment in the air.
Silence, serenity and incomparable panoramic views
One of the most striking sensations of flying in a balloon is the silence that surrounds you. Unlike other modes of air travel, in a balloon there are no noisy engines or turbulence; only the gentle puff of the gas burner can be heard occasionally, keeping the balloon in the air.
Shadows lengthen and colors intensify, creating a visual spectacle that simply cannot be replicated from the ground. It's an immersive experience that allows you to see the world from a completely new perspective. An experience that allows you to appreciate more deeply what has always been there, within reach of anyone who wants to see it, but unseen.
During the flight, every view is unique. From above, you can observe how the landscape changes with the sunlight, how the golden hues of sunrise or the warm colors of sunset transform the land and sky.
Hot air balloon flights are an opportunity to appreciate all that is unseen. While you're in the air, appreciating the sunrise or sunset, the serenity invites you to reflect on the simplicity of things. The tranquility that embraces you dispels any feelings of worry or discomfort you may feel because, in addition, you know you're flying with professionals and quality equipment that guarantees your safety at all times. You still can't believe you're in a balloon over Teotihuacán.
The flight is coming to an end, and as you descend, while the pilot carefully and expertly guides the balloon back to land, you realize how much you've seen today. You're happy for the experience. You know you'll never forget this experience, which now means so much to you. The hot air balloon slows down, and you're finally on the ground.
Finally, you look up at the sky, where you were a moment ago, and you are grateful for the experience of finding everything so beautiful once again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Being in a hot air balloon is a unique and exciting experience. Many describe the sensation as peaceful and serene, as it gently rises into the sky without the noise of engines. As you ascend, the world seems smaller and smaller, and the view becomes breathtaking, allowing you to appreciate the landscape from a completely new perspective.
A balloon that flies with people is called a hot-air balloon. This type of balloon uses hot air to rise and float in the air, carrying a basket (called a "gondola") in which the passengers and pilot are placed. Hot-air balloons have been used for centuries for transportation, observation, and, more recently, for recreational and tourist activities.
A hot air balloon flies thanks to the principle of buoyancy, which is based on the difference in density between the hot air inside the balloon and the cold air outside.
Reviews
What an incredible experience! We chose Volando en Globo because it was recommended to us, and it was much more than we expected. The scenery from the air over the Teotihuacán Valley was simply breathtaking, and the sensation of floating gently in the air gave us a serenity we'd never experienced before. The crew was very professional. It's definitely an adventure I'll recommend again and again to anyone looking for a unique experience.
I recently went with my family to Teotihuacan for a hot air balloon flight, and it was something we all thoroughly enjoyed. We were made to feel calm and well cared for at all times. They explained everything about flying and the archaeological site, allowing us to enjoy the flight and learn a lot. The sunrise view over Teotihuacan is indescribable. I would definitely recommend it for a unique family experience.
We flew in a balloon all afternoon over Teotihuacán, and the sight of the sun setting over the valley is something I'll never forget. The colors, the tranquility, the sun, everything. The team took care of everything. It was an experience filled with peace and excitement at the same time. I want to go back again.
