A beautiful flight over Saumur and the Château de Montreuil Bellay, thanks to the expertise of Rémy, Anthony and Ana's team. The weather was clear and we were able to enjoy the sunrise. Many thanks to all!

Everything came together to make this an exceptional moment: the vacations, a warm summer evening, no wind, friendly people in the gondola and a playful pilot.... Magnificent view of Saumur and the banks of the Loire, reflection of the balloon on the water, sunset... It was all there! There was even a marriage proposal! Just great!
