With food, stalls and entertainment, be prepared for a fun and uplifting break that everyone will remember!

From a morning pickup in your local area, we travel by coach to the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta. Arriving in the afternoon, we have time to enjoy the fiesta, stalls and food before the highly anticipated Mass Ascent to admire the hot air balloons taking to the sky in spellbinding glory. Then in the evening, we watch the fantastic Nightglow, as the hot air balloons light up the night sky to music – it’s a truly magical sight! Afterwards, we check in to our hotel for our relaxing overnight stay.

Accommodation

Selected Hotel JG3 | JG4

We’ll stay at a well-appointed hotel (JG3 or JG4 rating). All rooms are en suite and other facilities include a bar and restaurant.

Your hotel will be confirmed approximately 3 weeks before departure, therefore we cannot guarantee that the hotel will have a lift and/or ground floor rooms and may be unsuitable for those with limited mobility.

Hotel Rating

Hotels with a JG3 rating tend to be a more formal style of hotel, often part of a hotel chain, or are very-welcoming family-owned properties. Generally, they offer a greater range of facilities and services, and bedrooms tend to be a little more spacious with additional features. Public areas are larger and include lounge seating, bar and restaurant with good quality food served either buffet style or waiter service.

Accommodation in our JG4 category is of an even higher standard, typically offering a wide range of facilities and services. Bedrooms are designed to make your stay the most comfortable possible and the staff provide a service that reflects the detail and quality. You can also expect higher standards of food and beverages.
