Herefordshire Experience Days

The information given is excellent. We were very lucky as we managed to fly on our fist attempt. Other people in the group had been waiting for over a year. Lorrie our pilot was knowledgeable and took the time to chat, Make sure you get there half an hour before flying so you can be involved in the unpacking of the balloon, it all adds to the experience. Wear a hat as advised, keeps the heat off your head. All in all a great experience. Remember to bend zee knees on landing and wear outdoor shoes, you never know which field you will land in. Grass is very wet in the morning. Thank you Lorrrie and to the chaps that helped with transportation that day, sorry I can not remember your names.

I did not know quite what to expect, or as a complete beginner how skilled I was expected to be . I need not have worried. It was all very relaxed and Jon was patient,encouraging and helpful time and time again. The whole experience was fantastic including the lovely informal lunch. I came away aching and tired, but with the biggest smile on my face and the desire to try again.
