About

Montgolfieres du Périgord is a family‑run ballooning venture nestled in the heart of the Dordogne valley. With roots dating back to 1988, the company has grown from a passion shared by founders Julien Suve and his family into a celebrated tourist destination that offers passengers a perspective of the Périgord’s rolling hills and historic châteaux that few other experiences can match. Each flight begins at dawn or dusk, guided by experienced pilots who harmonise the craft’s delicate ballooning technique with the valley’s subtle breezes. The company prides itself on personalised itineraries, ranging from intimate two‑person ascensions to group tours that accommodate up to ten passengers, all escorted by friendly local guides who share stories of the region’s geography, history, and culinary heritage. Passion for safety, hospitality, and the sheer joy of flight are woven into every balloon, ensuring that every guest hovers over the Périgord with confidence and wonder.
