Rise Above the History

There is no better way to grasp the sheer scale and rich tapestry of Berlin than from a hot-air balloon. Trading the bustling streets for the serene calm of the upper air offers a truly unique perspective on the German capital’s most iconic landmarks. An excursion above Berlin transforms famous sites into miniature masterpieces, providing guests with unparalleled photo opportunities and an unforgettable memory.

The Ultimate Sightseeing Tour

As the sun rises or sets, painting the sky in vibrant colours, your balloon gently drifts over the city’s vast green spaces and historic architecture. From this vantage point, you will clearly see the Brandenburg Gate, the sweeping expanse of the Tiergarten, the winding path of the River Spree, and the unmistakable silhouette of the TV Tower (Fernsehturm). It is a tranquil experience, offering a moment of quiet reflection high above the urban energy.

Planning Your Flight

Hot-air balloon excursions are weather-dependent and typically take place just after sunrise or just before sunset, when the air conditions are most stable. Flights usually launch from designated parks on the outskirts of the city, followed by a celebratory champagne toast upon landing—a tradition dating back to the first balloon flights.

This is an ideal activity for couples, special occasions, or anyone seeking a luxury adventure during their stay at the Berlin Urban Hotel. Our concierge team would be delighted to assist you in booking this magnificent experience.
