You must do this if you're in Vilnius - What a wonderful experience. We got picked up at our hotel and driven to the take off location which was rural and outside Trakai. We then flew over the area and our pilot pointed out things of interest and explained about ballooning. The landing was great fun and the sparkling wine and certificates were a surprise.

Incredible - It was so much fun from start to finish and great value for money, I went with my mum and we would fully recommend! We were out for about 3 hours overall and it was a highlight of our trip

Great ride! - This was excellent. Our pilot was professional and personable. The entire experience was wonderful. It was beautiful scenery and the ride was amazing. Smooth and peaceful. I recommend this trip 100 percent. Don’t miss the opportunity!

Amazing. Would recommend. - The overall service was amazing. The pilot is a true expert in his field, able to share so many insides and so much knowledge about hot air ballooning history and present. We loved every second of the experience.

Hot Air Ballooning - What an AMAZING trip!! Highly highly recommend it. Weather was perfect for this scenic ride. The aeronaut was incredibly friendly and knowledgable about the view below.

Magical! - A magical trip on a beautiful foggy morning! I'm not a morning person but getting up before dawn was definitely worth it. Vytus was a great guide with a wonderful sense of humor! I also appreciated the hotel pick up. A great way to celebrate a special occasion. I also liked the champagne and First Flight Certificate at the end. : )

Peak Life Moment With My Elderly Mother! - It’s started with a 5am chat with Smile Co. My mother and I had arrived the previous night in Vilnius with no plans. I woke up early and searched TripAdvisor for best things to do in Vilnius. Hot air balloon popped up. There were two companies. I texted both on WhatsApp. To my utter surprise, Smile Balloons responded immediately at that wee hour. They had room for two of us on this glorious day with not a cloud in the sky. I couldn’t pay via their website for some reason using my credit card. They accepted my booking via WhatsApp (had to give full names and weights) with the option to pay on site. I was pleasantly surprised that their price was less than what was quoted on TripAdvisor. Albertas picked us up at our hotel an hour before take-off. The Toyota Landcruiser drive to Trakai (approx 45 mins) was a delightful experience through the countryside. My elderly mother had difficulty getting in and out of the balloon basket. Albertas and his aide were super accommodating. He gave us a detailed briefing before the flight. The flight was the best thing my mother and I have ever done. It’s coming from someone who’s traveled to 82 countries. Albertas jovial demeanor and attention to detail had a lot of do with it. The champagne toast at the end was the icing on the cake. He safely brought us back to our hotel before 10pm. I can’t recommend these guys enough, especially those traveling with vulnerable family members, like in my case, my elderly mother. It is totally worth every dime.

Just book it! - What a great experience! From pickup to touchdown, Smile Balloons were professional and thorough. There were only 6 passengers on our flight and we appreciated this small group experience. The company was great to communicate with on the status of our flight and our pickup location. The flight over Trakai was beautiful and our pilot was very skilled at his job. I highly recommend booking your hot air balloon ride in Vilnius with Smile.

Awesome experience - I now know why they are called Smile; I was smiling the whole time. Awesome experience! The pilot was very friendly and professional. Highly recommend.

Ride over Old Town Vilnius - Vytas & his crew were outstanding! We flew a little later in the evening due to airport clearance. We saw the sunset, and the entire experience was amazing. Our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) had a blast!
