At dawn or in the soft light of morning, a private balloon lifts off over the plains around Segovia, giving a hush and a new vantage on the city’s stone silhouettes. During the flight participants sip cava and enjoy a light meal, then descend to continue the day with an expert guide through Segovia’s signature monuments.
