Who we are

Airborne Adventures Ltd. was established in 1989 and became one of the first companies in the UK to be granted an Air Operators Certificate for hot air balloon passenger flights by the Civil Aviation Authority. This enabled us to start our business offering Hot Air Balloon rides in the Yorkshire Dales.

Airborne Adventures has since developed from that early pioneering balloon company based in Skipton, we are still offer balloon rides in the Yorkshire Dales, but now we also offer Mountain area  balloon rides in the Lake District and occasional trips to Balloon Festivals in Europe.

In 2000 we became involved with organising staff events for Howdens Joinery. Initially this involved taking a small group trip of 13 people ballooning in Portugal for a week. Requests for more and more trips developed into a four day multi-activity trips to Catalonia, an area of Spain renowned for its outstanding weather. The trips still included ballooning, but developed into multi-activity trips as we added karting, wine tasting, sailing, jet skiing, quad biking, snowmobiling, car control courses, electric bike tours of Barcelona etc.

Having now delivered these amazing trips to thousands of people we are confident in offering them to any group large or small

We continue to operate balloons to raise brand awareness, most recently for Howdens Joinery and Hope Technology.
