The Private Flight Gift is a hot air balloon ride for two people. Ideal to give in weddings, anniversaries, or for a very special present.
It all started in 1997 when Miguel Julia, founding partner of Glovento Sur, captivated by the printed image of a hot air balloon, began to dream about the possibility of turning the experience of balloon flights into the profession of his life.
After years of growth and hours of flight, the logistical team has been increasing to become a great family united by the same passion: to offer an unforgettable and rare experience to the greatest number of people with the possibility of enjoying flights in different areas of southern Spain.
Thanks to the professional work of a great team and the collaboration of our sponsors, today Glovento Sur has a varied fleet of aero-static balloons able to give a complete service across almost the whole geography of Andalusia.
We are fully aware of the need to care for the environment and respect our surroundings. For this reason, we adopt measures that help reduce the impacts of our activity, reducing the consumption of energy, water and other resources. We are changing the configuration of our fleet, renewing the sails of our balloons with a more resistant and durable material than the standard, which, although it is a little more expensive, reduces fuel consumption over time and reduces waste production as it is more long lasting and last longer. Of course, in our offices and hangar we separate the waste for recycling and management.
We know that tourism carried out in a sustainable way can contribute to the development of our territory, and that is why we encourage all our clients to join this commitment, making responsible use of natural resources, water and energy, acquiring local products and working with companies in the area.
