Atacama from the Sky Flight and Experience inside the Balloon

About this activity

Discover the Atacama Desert from the heights with an unforgettable hot air balloon flight at sunrise, enjoying privileged views of the Licancabur volcano and the Andes Mountains.

The experience begins with pickup at your hotel and transfer to the flight area. Upon arrival, enjoy breakfast while the team prepares the balloon and conducts a brief briefing before takeoff.

The flight lasts approximately between 45 minutes and 1 hour, depending on weather conditions. From the heights, contemplate the immensity of the desert, its volcanoes, and the colors of the dawn.

After landing, celebrate the adventure with a cocktail and enjoy a special moment: you can enter the hot air balloon to take photos and create a unique memory of your experience.

The complete activity lasts approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes and includes transfers, breakfast, briefing, flight, cocktail, and photo moment.
