panoramagique is the balloon ride right?
i read somewhere that it is about 12euro per adult and works depending on weather conditions.

while i was there last year in march for almost a week, i never saw it working.
do they have particular times for this? hoping we'll go up in the balloon this time. i am scared of heights but willing 2 be brave on this trip :rolleyes:

When we were there in Jan it went up pretty regularly. We went on it and had a 10 minute wait before it went up. We had the whole balloon to ourselves and it was lovely.

I was there for only 1 night last week and saw it up quite a few times, so its definately working day and night atm.

We'd really like to do this too. Wasn't up for our holiday last year but fingers crossed for March! How long does it take to do?

The balloon totally depends on the wind speeds higher up. We finally got to ride it in October, on our April trip we saw it go up but whenever we were passing it was closed. The view is great, I got a picture of the Eiffel Tower from up there with my zoom lens!
