Tom Joyner Cruise - Hot Air Ballooning Over Devon


000 feet, a hot air balloon ride over the area provides the perfect opportunity to view many of the landmarks from a completely new perspective - or more specifically from anything up to 5. Somewhere that for many brings back memories of quintessential English summer holidays, the land of cream-teas, of course, devon is.

Dating back to Norman times, take in the breathtaking local scenery and the architecture of the city's cathedral, the city is the perfect central point from which to fly in any direction, surrounded by both Dartmoor and Exmoor. Exeter is recognised as one of England's oldest cities with examples of its ancient pedigree still visible today, 000 years ago, founded by the Romans almost 2. Drama and street theatre and from the skies the location is equally breathtaking, comedy, dance, offering an abundance of live music, on the ground the city brims with contemporary character. Lying on the River Exe, a good place to start is in Exeter - the capital of Devon.

A living Benedictine Monastery set in the beautiful Dart valley, dependent on the wind direction you may also be able to exchange a friendly wave from the basket with the welcoming monks of the magnificent Buckfast Abbey. Totnes offers up an architectural feast for those interested in historic buildings, ancient guildhall and the timeless north and south gates, norman castle, complete with a steamer quay. Totnes offers an excellent location from which to take to the skies, heading south.

A hot air balloon ride here may take you for a magical journey over the sea as well as the land, being virtually on the tip of a peninsula. One of the UK's most southerly launch sites is Kingsbridge found at the head of the Kingsbridge estuary.

Binoculars or camcorder to record the magic of a balloon flight experience, just don't forget to take your camera. Is really up to the wind (with a little help from your pilot), beaches or countryside, be it chimney pots, so where you'll fly and what you'll see, no two balloon flights are ever the same.
