Our Berkshire balloon flights are primarily flown launch sites in the Henley-On-Thames area, mainly due to having to avoid the flight paths of Heathrow airport. Our flights normally take place in the morning or early evening, which give the best conditions for flying a balloon and flights are likely to take you over many famous Berkshire landmarks including parts of the River Thames.
