Lassithi PlateauAt the appointed time, you will meet «VIVA let's fly» team near the Lassithi plateau. Then, transfer by company minivans to the takeoff place. You will be involved in the preparation of the balloon for the ride: unpacking the balloon, preparing the basket, inflating the balloon with cold and then hot air. Shortly before the takeoff, our pilots will make a safety briefing. As soon as the balloon is upright, the pilots will invite you to the basket for the takeoff. Flight duration is 40 minutes to 1 hour. Of course, under certain weather conditions, this time can change both to shorter or longer.
