We came all the way from Bergen, Norway to Vilnius to enjoy a balloon ride with Silvia Balloons. The event was perfectly organized, everything went according to the time schedule provided by Silvia and her team. The ride itself was spectacular. I usually do not feel myself very comfortable when exposed to altitudes, but Silvia gave me very good advices and I felt perfect all the way. Silvia and her team have made it very clear that the safety was the first priority, we felt taken care of and safe during the whole trip. Highly recommended.
