Overview

Fly over Paris onboard the world's largest balloon at 150 meters altitude and enjoy thrilling views over the capital as you have never seen it before.

Thanks to a 360° panoramic vantage point, the balloon achieves unbeatable views of the city where you can admire the Eiffel Tower and other emblematic monuments.

This popular attraction was built by AEROPHILE SAS in 2005 and created as a means to raise awareness about air quality in partnership with AIRPARIF®, the accredited air quality monitoring organization. As a result, the new balloon model now changes colour depending on the city's ambient air quality ranging from good to extremely bad. The Ballon de Paris was set up in the André Citroën park (15th arrondissement) in 1999. Since then, more than a million people have already taken a ride in it.

Fantastic experience

Well worth taking the time to visit. Arrived just after 9am Saturday morning and flew in first flight with one other group. A wonderful experience that gives great views and a lovely park to explore as well

The balloon is easy to get to from RER C. It is located in a beautiful park. We did not have to wait to get on the balloon at 10am. Only about a dozen people on our ride. Friendly staff. Great views from the top! Highly recommend!

Great 1st stop in Paris

We headed here first thing while we waited to check in to our Air BNB. We were able to stow our bags at the base. It was a short wait and a smooth ride up. Great view of the surrounding area, could see Eiffel tower, Arc de Triomphe in distance and more from there. The parc had a nice fountain area for cooling off on the way past.
