Over the years, we have found many of our passengers are buying hot air balloon rides as a gift for a birthday.

It’s a great way to say Happy Birthday, as not only do they get the joy of opening the balloon ride vouchers on their birthday, they get to experience even more joy for a second time when they fly in a 120 foot tall hot air balloon across the Essex countryside.

Hot air balloon rides make the perfect gift for any special occasion.

While our ‘Happy Birthday’ branded big passenger balloons have been retired, you will get exactly the same wonderful experience in the big red Virgin hot air balloons.
