The balloon is secured by ropes at four points, so even those who are afraid of heights can feel at ease.

In early summer, it is still light even in the evening. When the weather is fine, you can enjoy a magnificent panoramic view of the Furano Basin and the Tokachi mountain range.

The evening flight is like a light shining in the darkness after the sun goes down. The neon lights of Furano city can be seen from the balloon.

  • First balloon flight

    My wife and I were finally able to go on a post-retirement trip. We have been on planes and helicopters, but we had never been in a hot air balloon, so we decided to definitely try it. We had planned a sunset flight, but it was canceled due to the wind, which was disappointing. However, someone contacted us to say that an early morning flight might be possible, and they inflated a huge hot air balloon for the two of us early in the morning, so we were able to take the flight. Thank you very much. Not only were the staff very considerate, but they also taught us a lot about Furano, and their conversation skills were wonderful. Thank you for giving us some fun memories of Hokkaido. (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was an extraordinary experience.

    I experienced a hot air balloon ride during Silver Week. It started at 6:30 p.m., so I thought I wouldn't be able to see anything because it was pitch black, rather than a sunset, but I was able to see the night view of Furano and it was a wonderful time.
