Anyone got any ideas about how I would go about it.

Hello,

Did a few searches and found the following sites (a surprisingly large number, I thought!) which might help firm up your plans:
http://www.view-nepal.com/balloon/
http://www.catmando.com/balloon/
http://www.indiatravelinfo.com/nepal/balloon.htm
http://www.elitenepal.com/nepal/hotair.htm
http://www.balloonlife.com/publications/balloon_life/9503/binnepal.htm
http://www.nepalexplorer.net/hotair/hotair.htm
http://www.inspiration.com.np/nepal/hot_airb.htm
http://www.adamtravels.com/ballooning.htm
http://www.loyaltravel.com.np/air_ballooning.htm
http://www.seanskytours.com/sightseeing/ballooning.htm
http://www.holidays2india.com/nepal/nepadv.asp

It seems hot air ballooning is getting very popular in Nepal. I don't suppose you could find much more spectacular views anywhere else in the world...

Paul

PS - In the Web addresses given, it always seems to the same single balloon pictured so I'm guessing there's one key operator offering the flights...

For your research,

I have already visited most of the sites listed. Anyone got any first hand experience?

Ah, sorry... leave this with me and I'll try a few contacts and see if they would mind sharing details of their experiences. I would be interested to hear about it myself! Smile

Had no luck there, I'm afraid... I guess those that have made such a trip are quite few and far between. Hopefully someone that has will stumble across this forum in due course, though, and be able to share their experiences with us all...
