In the distance, you will view the Chianti hills, its castles and famous vineyards and woods to the North. The soft rolling hills of the Crete Senesi with the monumental Monte Amiata in the distance to the South. Sometimes towards the end of the flight, looking for a suitable landing field, we fly over the medieval walled town of Monteriggioni (mentioned by Dante in the Divina Commedia),  Monteriggioni’s exterior walls and the buildings within are some the best preserved in all of Italy, attracting tourists, architects, medieval historians and archaeologists, and of course balloonists!
Sometimes we go for a ballooning tour a few miles further South of Siena and takeoff in Buonconvento (bonus conventus, “happy place”, mentioned for the first time in 1100), and Montalcino home of the renowned Brunello di Montalcino wine. Also from nearby Pienza to fly over the rolling hills of the Crete senesi and the Val d’Orcia.

 

SIENA. A modest settlement of Etruscan origin entered history under the name of Colonia Julia Saena in 29 BC. Siena is the embodiment of a an outstanding medieval city that has preserved its character and quality to a remarkable degree. Its influence on art, architecture and town planning in the Middle Ages, both in Italy and elsewhere in Europe, was great. Its inhabitants pursued their rivalry with Florence right into the area of urban planning. Throughout the centuries, they preserved their city’s Gothic appearance, acquired between the 12th and 15th centuries. The whole city of Siena, built around the Piazza del Campo, was devised as a work of art that blends into the surrounding landscape. The historic centre of Siena has been declared by UNESCO a World Heritage Site. It is one of the nation’s most visited tourist attractions. Hotels in Siena.

Siena is famous for its cuisine, art, museums, medieval cityscape and the Palio, the horse race. The Palio di Siena is a traditional (and controversial) medieval horse race run around the Piazza del Campo twice each year, on 2 July and 16 August. The event is attended by large crowds, and is widely televised.

Sometimes we go for a ballooning tour a few miles further South of Siena and takeoff in Buonconvento (bonus conventus, “happy place”, mentioned for the first time in 1100), and Montalcino home of the renowned Brunello di Montalcino wine. Also from nearby Pienza to fly over the rolling hills of the Crete senesi and the Val d’Orcia.

Florence balloon rides

Fly over Florence!

Only when the wind and weather conditions are right one can fly with the balloon right over the city of Florence, during the hot summer months Florence balloon rides are not always possible.  It took us quite a bit of homework to make this balloon flight happen, were certainly rewarded by the stunning views! Somtimes when the winds are right we takeoff from the Southern part of the city and fly out into the florentine hills.
